So when @mk_wizard made her post about making a Beast Wars version of Elita One with a fox beast mode and a geisha like appearance, I decided to remake the design and make it transformable. The hardest part was deciding where the beast mode parts went in robot mode. I noticed that those fur parts around her collar and waist could form the fox belly, so that is what I did with that. For the limbs, the robot forelimbs are the fox upper limb parts which fold over the fox's forelimbs. I finally decided to put the fox head on her back. I didn't know how to transform the umbrella into the fox's tail, so these 2 remain seperate. The GIF shows her transformation between modes, a scene where she bows with the umbrella like in Mulan's "Honor to Us All", and some pictures with Primal in both bot and beast modes.

Turns out that she really liked the fanart, and approved me putting the fox head behind her in robot mode.
This includes both transforming and non transforming versions of the stickfigure in both modes as well as one umbrella.
