Transformers Prime Vos’ Alt~Mode 🖤💛

“You didn’t come back, for any of us…!”

~Concept Art: for Transformers Prime: Mercy fan-project by @emperor-kumquat

Personal Description

This version of Vos has a small frame that is compensated for the giant sniper weapon perched on her back. By the time you realise - it’s too late. ☠️

If you get lucky to avoid the first blast, you’ll notice Vos’ alt~mode isn’t normal for any flight frame - dawning 3 pairs of wings to keep herself airborne and fast enough to avoid potential attacks. Shooting this seeker down will be difficult.

When designing her, I got heavily inspired by a Seraphim - a 6 winged angel in the Christian lore. Coupled by the dark colour palette and Vos’ unfortunate origins, I can’t help but view her as a fallen angel.

Used in Mercy (Spoiler Free)

In Mercy, she continues to be a member of the DJD (called Loyalty), who are the antagonists in ‘Discovery’ storyline and plan to exact their vengeance to those who done them wrong so long ago.

@doodle-on-notes Thanks for tagging me and I like the sound of that word. Never heard of it before 💚

Luna 🌙

Literally means "moon" in my native language, but it also the name of a Goddess who represented the moon.

Why this word? A while ago, a full moon emerged and it was placed in just the right way for me to see it from my bedroom window. I must've stayed up an extra hour just to look at it in my dark little corner of a bed. Felt at peace in that moment. I keep thinking of that night sometimes.

Let's see:

@lemonomelette, @cuppajj, @darks-lair and anyone else who is interested. No pressure of course

Quick ! Think of a word you like ! 

Not necessarily your favorite word, it doesn’t even have to be a word you usually like ! Just a word that right now, at this moment, you look at and think “ooh what about this one”.

It can be a word you find funny, pretty, strange, scary, anything really ! You don’t need to tell me why you choose that word (though I’d love to know if you want to tell me), just give me a word ! 

(It’d be lovely if we made this into a chain but there’s no pressure <3)

uhhhhh sanguine? (literally the only word that popped up into my head rn but it’s prettyyy and sounds like summer to me in some inexplicable way 😌✨)

oh sure!

Death of the Phoenix

This is by far the biggest - and longest - project I have worked on to date. I was massively inspired by a scene from Death of the Phoenix, Return of the Wolf by @novafire-is-thinking

Variations and timelapse below

Starscream, you done FUCKED up.

Redraw of that panel from the scene in Transformers Skybound where Starscream deservedly gets his ass handed to him.

For ch.4 of @mal-co-holic's Grindcore fic--- more suffering for Pharmus >:3

[shira-illustra]

I somehow missed this, so thank you for tagging me @doodle-on-notes!!! 💚

Let’s see…

1. My OCs and their stories (I can ramble on and on that you’ll get tired of me lol 😅)

2. Fantasy, mythology and folklore (Very curious and inspired by them. Especially when culture is involved)

3. Art and animation of any kind (I use them for study cases but sometimes just marvelling and discussing the style/techniques over coffee or tea is enough for me)

4. Cartoons, movies, animes, shows etc (Not just transformers but it’s definitely a common subject as of now)

5. Languages and culture (Growing up in multiple cultures led me to be not only embrace my own but learn about other cultures and their unique languages)

That’s me done!! Who’s next:

@darks-lair

@aecholapis

@shockbot

And anyone else who is interested! (this is optional, no pressure)

Have fun 😊

I saw this meme going around on twitter and I think it'll be perfect for this account.

List 5 topics you can talk on for an hour without preparing any material.

Transformers Prime Powerglide + Alt~Mode ❤️🛩

“And away we go!”

-Concept Art: for the Transformers Prime: Mercy fan-project by @emperor-kumquat

Personal Description

This version of Powerglide maintains his role as a loyal Aerialbot. However, his slightly bulky frame; coupled with the gauntlet style forearms give off a hand-to-hand combat fighter - relying on more than just his blasters and flight.

Despite all that, he does possess a gentle nature when off-duty; comparable to a big bear that gives hugs - especially to his fellow comrades. 🐻

Used in Mercy (Spoiler Free)

In Mercy, he is a support character, mostly seen on-duty with the other Aerialbots, maintaining his serious tone and devotion to catching high-risk Decepticons.

Behind the Scenes/ Work in Progress

-Bot~Mode: 3 traditional art designs, initial sketch and layout of the design sheet

-Alt~Mode: initial sketch, 2D-blocking, outline
