The "tb" part of the filename is because the Autobot I am designing based on this vehicle is named Tribarrel. Which in turn was inspired by the fact that this is a Mazda 3. And because I have read more David Drake "Hammer's Slammers" stories than is healthy. Yes, he has a tribarrel powergun with an antiaircraft role. Here, see for yourself.
I will likely be making an icon out of the completed Tribarrel art at some point and replacing one of the others. Probably Super Optimus Prime.
