It's my 4 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳

I know I’m not around here a lot anymore, but I’m doing some intermittent housekeeping of this place before I’m willing to be active again.

[sparrowshrike]

Purely for Echo and Query, I just like the designs.

And more from my Instagram, this time Batman flavored. We have Query and Echo redesigned to match with the 2004 show, Music Meister without his glasses. (I gave him aniridia. He'll almost always have the sunglasses on, even at night.) And Man-Bat/Kirk Langstron.

For those following @artsy-hobbitses as well as me(and If you aren’t you should, her art is beautiful), You probably saw this coming. Funny story though, while drawing this, I completely forgot that Simon and Naomi were cyborgs so I drew them with human limbs. Oops Either way, I might make another with Suraya, Rose, and Fi getting Ice Cream, a wholesome Grandbi moment.

Transformers: The Ties that Bind: Family Matters part 5

@tiesthatbind-tf​ @artsy-hobbitses​

“This is a complete and utter disaster!” Prowl growled at Soundblaster and Nightbird “20 city blocks leveled because of you grudge match! Why did you let that monster live the first time?!” Prowl’s eyes glowed, before Jazz placed his hand on his shoulder got him to sit down. “Do either of you even know where he could have taken Goldbug?”

“No Sir” The two said in unison “All the bases we came across were destroyed by a collective failsafe” Soundblaster continued. “Sir, We promise we will find Armorhide.”

“You were going to be doing that anyway, But I need to know that when you find this Armorhide, that you will end his threat” Prowl rubbed his brow

“We will, Sir.” Soundblaster said looking out the office window at the two girls getting a check-up from Glit “I will”

Soundblaster and Nightbird exited Prowls office and head down to the common area, Suraya was doing what they did best, organizing data and monitoring everything. Ben was nursing his wounds, with Memo and Charlie next to him... Both giving Simon a glare. Simon felt he deserved that, but Naomi shot them a glare right back. Glit flagged the two down. Soundblaster and Nightbird walked over to her, Glit wrapped her arms around the two. 

“We’re okay Glit,” Soundblaster said, trying to get out from the dogwoman’s grasp, but she just hugged harder before relenting. Glit disengaged Soundblaster’s visor and mask.

“Simon Damocles Blake, What have I told you about lying to me?” Glit glared into Simon’s eyes. Simon gulped, she brought the middle name into this, but he nodded, he knew a few more trips to Rung were in order. “Either way, you may be pleased to know the entire Decepticon Espionage Division showed up in force, thanks to Suraya’s call”

“Wait, even Sarah?” Nightbird asked, Sarah Stevens was the Espionage Division’s Sniper, codename: Shadow Striker... She is also Suraya’s ex. Simon and Glit had visible reactions of guilt, sadness, and a little bit of anger. but then Glit regained her composure and confirmed that everyone had come.  Suddenly over the P.A. system blared a call for all combat ready individuals not assigned to report to the armory for debrief. In the armory stood Laserbeak, Ravage, Hound, Buzzsaw, Rumble, Frenzy, Springer, Arcee, and Shadow Striker. Soundblaster walked over to Shadow Striker, He disengaged his mask and visor before slauting her. Shadow Striker rolled her eyes, before pulling her mechanical arm out of her jacket pocket to lower it. ”Good to see you too, but we both know you outrank me at this point” Sarah said, while moving her organic arm to ruffle Simon’s hair. “I missed you, I missed our talks... Bibi told me about Roulette, I have some expeirence with that kind of loss now, I killed my brother.” Simon said scraping his hand across his metal forearm, a nervous habit. “Yeah, I heard about that, But hey...” Sarah lifted Simon’s chin “You’ve still got yer mum, and you still got me. I’ve had time to think on Rory’s death, and I’m hoping after this mission, I can finally explain myself...” Her eyes drifted down. Simon smiled, and placed his hand on her shoulder. The Group was joined shortly by Soundwave and Shockwave, who has been granted probation to assist in this crisis.  “As most of you know, the attack on the UN and the city were nothing more than a distraction by Andrew Hyde, alias Armorhide.” Soundwave said “and that backstabbing C#%&, Airachnid” Arcee said “Yes, ahem,” Suraya cleared a throat “You will be two teams one in the air and one on the ground” “We don’t even know where Armorhide is!” Shadow Striker spoke up  “So we have no ide-” Suddenly the armory doors swung open, Memo and Charlie were carrying Ben on their shoulders. “Yes we do, Gwen just sent me a message!” Ben said with heavy breaths “She sent a location, and A name: trj:PTicon”(Trypticon)

Hounded

She was the most beautiful girl in town, as she was constantly reminded when guys would constantly try to take her attention. Lana had Dark Brown hair, Light Skin, and Hazel eyes, a stocky build, and cute amount of chub. One day, she had enough, She told the town that she had let her dog loose. Whoever brought them back would be able to go on a date with her. Her dog was Pitbull-Great Dane-Rottweiler mix, with dark brown fur and a white underbelly, with hazel eyes. The dog would appear in town usually around meal times, heading to certain restaurants that had shown themselves as friendly.

For the first couple weeks the dog was seen being chased all over town by nearly every single guy, but in the weeks after that, attempts were few and far between.

Lana initially thought that they had given up and she would finally have some peace, but then one morning the local news ran a story about how one of her suitors had obtained dog catching equipment, only for it to go missing. The story was humorous to Lana, due to the fact that by reporting the theft, he ousted himself for obtaining the equipment without license. These same types of reports would keep coming in. Lana began to wonder though, why is someone collecting all this equipment? Was the dog in genuine danger?

She received her answer two months after the challenge had started, The town recluse had been arrested for Assault, Robbery, and Property Damage. He had been arrested after shooting a man with his own tranq gun, illegally obtained, after getting into an altercation with him, they found the stolen property in a locked trunk in his apartment. Some of the town lorded him as a vigilante, others(mostly the men) viewed him as nothing more than a thief and menace.

That night, The dog payed a visit to the town jail. The town jail had only two cells, and at this time, one held the men who owned the equipment, while the other held the recluse. The dog barked up to the quieter cell, but the other cell was the only one that responded, the collective men tried slamming them selves against the wall, intent on breaking it. The dog crouched away from the loud cell, and let out a whine.

“Don’t worry Lassie, they won’t break it, they’re the kind of people who take the easy way out” A voice came from the quieter cell, before two greyish blue eyes appeared at the bars. “So you’re what all this is about? I’d ask to shake, but as you can see, I’m a little indisposed” The recluse spoke in a kind tone, but he wasn’t talking down to them, or at least not figuratively. “Either way, why are you doing here? You aren’t safe as long as your human imposes that challenge.” The Dog tilted her head to the side. “If you’re wondering why I’m in here... Well, I was raised around dogs, and I don’t believe that any dog deserves what these guys were planning, so I stopped them, by less than legal means.” The recluse sighed, before shouting at the dog “NOW GO! Go On, LEAVE!” The Dog whined before running off into the night.

The Recluse was awoken the next morning with the opening of his cell, He immediately leapt out of bed, and took to a defensive stance. Ready to fight if it was someone none to pleased with his actions. But once his eyes adjusted to the light, he saw that the person in front of his cell was not an enemy, or at least not as he could tell.

“Alright Mr. Hunter, Ms. Dane has payed your Bail, Your free to go” The sheriff grumbled

Lana waited outside the station for Raff to collect his belongings, Raff was a tall young man, with deep auburn hair and greyish navy blue eyes.

“I’d thank you for letting me out, but I still don’t know why.” Raff raised an eyebrow

“Think of it as a thank you for all the help” Lana smiled

“You could thank me by rescinding your challenge, Your dog doesn’t deserve the stress.” Raff turned away, and started walking

“Wait! The Challenge is over!” Lana ran after Raff “So...Um... why don’t you come to my place, and I’ll let you shake hands like you said”

“Okay...”

Thus the two made there way to the edge of town, where Lana lived. They exchanged conversation, but when they entered her house, Raff locked the door.

“So... Lassie was it?” Raff raised an eyebrow

“Wha-?” Lana wheeled around

“I never told you anything about me, not about the dogs I grew up with, and how did you know I wanted to Shake you dog’s paw?” Raff asked

Lana tried to explain herself but in her excitement, she had let quite a few things slip “Ah, Crud” Lacking anything beyond that, Lana decided to simply shift into her canine form and see how Raff reacted. Raff was rather unfazed, he simply went over to the couch and sat on it. He then patted his lap, inviting her to join him. She crawled up to his lap, and he scratched between her ears. She enjoyed his touch, he enjoyed her company, and neither of them were hounded again.

Bonus!

“You are remarkable unfazed by this, Why is that?”

“My Cousin told me a very similar story about her girlfriend, I just figured she was just intoxicated”

“What’d she tell you”

“That her girlfriend was an actual catgirl, Like she was a cat... She also mentioned a similar challenge to yours, where did you get the idea?”

“Oh, My old roommate told me it was how she scored the one for her... You don’t think-?”

"I mean-”

“Let’s call them!” 

“Yep!”

Godzilla Crossroads AU part 3

Jet barely left HEAT HQ since he made his promise, He just stayed with Komi, monitoring her vitals and hoping to see a sign of an end to her coma, the one he had a hand in putting her in. He also watched for anything about her egg, as far as he could tell, the baby was still in one piece, with no major damage, but other than that, he couldn’t tell if it was alive or going to live.

Zilla would occasionally pop by to check on them, but usually Jet just sighed and shook his head, causing the lizard to loose any enthusiasm he had and return to his den.

Almost the entire HEAT team, except for Monique or Craven, has told him to rest. One night he was fast asleep until some kept calling the phone. Jet got up groggy and annoyed, he looked at a clock, 12:43, whatever this is had better be good.

“Humanitarian Environmental Analysis Team, Tech Sergeant Dr. Simon Jaeger Speaking.” Jet rubbed his eyes.

“Good you’re up, we’ve got a situation, all hands on deck, Elsie’s coming by to pick you up” Nick said 

“No, I’m not leaving Komi, or her egg”

“Relax, it’s here in New York, only a hour away.”

“Fine... I’ll grab me gear.” Jet said going to a closet where he kept his gear from the military, he put on his helmet, boots, and gloves, but left his rank and flight suit behind. He grabbed a tranq gun from the armory and waited out front for Elsie who arrived a minute later. When he arrived Mendel was complaining about the hour of night and Nick was assigning jobs, until he got a call from Monique, in which then the group split in two. Jet joined up with Nick and Mendel, due to his experience with Kaiju combat situations.

The group pulled up to the bus depot, only to see the monster, a giant blue and white bug like creature with large pincers and electricity surging around it, tearing the place to shreds. Jet looked down at his tranq gun and hoped it would even remotely work. Monique told them there were more people inside the offices. Nick and Jet ran in with her, People were screaming behind a glass door. Jet wanted to kick it open, but Monique told him to assist her in moving the cabinet blocking it instead... Just as the monster broke down the front door. The people ran back inside the room, with Jet running in front to try and direct them. Then the monster blasted the building in half leaving Jet stranded away from the group. 

Simon grabbed a metal bar that was protruding from the ceiling and swung up to the Roof, Just in time for Zilla to arrive on the scene. Zilla pounced on the monster, but it threw him off and forced him back. Jet saw an opening and numbed from the roof to Zilla’s back, Climbing up his dorsal plates. Zilla charged up a breath attack, causing Jet to leap to his scales in order to avoid burns. Jet slipped down the back but was able to catch himself and continue climbing. When he reached the top, he saw the monster wind up a electrical punch.

“Down!” Jet Yelled from on top of Zilla’s eyebrow, Causing Zilla to dodge. Jet suddenly had a plan “Tail!” He yelled, while pointing at the lizard’s tail. Zilla looked at his tail and understood what to do. He whipped the monster with his tail, knocking it back. The monster landed with a giant crash kicking up a cloud of debris. But when Zilla and Jet looked inside it, the monster had disappeared.

Zilla trudged off to the water with Jet still on him, but Zilla didn’t fully submerge. He swam along the coast until he reached HEAT HQ. Jet climbed from Zilla’s head to the docks and looked up at the Kaiju, who then let out a roar before swimming away. Jet ran inside to check Komi’s vitals.

Transformers Ties that Bind: Family Matters part 4

@artsy-hobbitses @tiesthatbind-tf

Ben leaned up against one of the decorative pillars in the lobby, unsurprisingly after a 10 year long war, No one wants to chance another, so Delegate Duty is usually boring, Especially with Gwen doing the work of twelve agents.

Ben was texting in group chat between himself, Charlie and Memo when he suddenly felt a tap on his right shoulder. He snapped his eyes over to see a metal claw with a golden lensed camera in the center. He followed the claw to a purple and black arm, which then lead back to Suraya Widodo AKA Soundwave. Someone Ben was all too familiar with.

“Mx. Widodo! How are you” Ben put on a cheery face, but he already knew what they were about to say.

“I wasn’t aware a guard duty required that” Suraya said pointing at his phone with one of their bottom arms, while the upper two looked at Ben’s face, and the fourth was reading their notes for a presentation they was going to give. Suddenly Goldbug ran up behind them.

“Hey Soundwave!” Gwen greeted, nearly startling the poor middle aged woman.

“GAHH!” Suraya yelled as they lost their footing, their arms quickly moving to catch them. Their arms placed themselves in front of where they were falling halting their decent. Suraya then lifted themself onto them floating in the air by them. They lifted their upper arms off the ground and placed them above their shoulders looking at the Twins. “Please child, never do that again, and It’s Suraya, the war ended years ago.”

Suddenly a sizeable explosion rocked the hall, creating a massive hole in the wall, that a man with metal skin, blonde hair, and arm mounted weaponry, as well as a woman with black, purple, and gold armor under a black trenchcoat stepped through. Gwen and Ben Immediately knew who the man was. Armorhide AKA Andrew Hyde was another MECH Extralier and Silas’s son, after Soundblaster and Nightbird had defeated him, they sent him to a mental asylum to get help as Andrew was their friend before the escape. 

“Goldbug? Bumblebee! are you okay? What’s happening!?” Soundblaster yelled through the radio

“It’s Andrew!” Goldbug said into her radio before turning to Suraya and Bumblebee “We need to recontain him! The doctors were just making progress with undoing what MECH did!” Bumblebee nodded, while Suraya summoned her old war suit.

Upstairs, Soundblaster bolted out the door, and Nightbird was close behind before Wariko grabbed her arm. Nightbird looked at her newfound mother with confusion until Wariko placed the Stormfall Sword in her hand.

“Take it, we’ll suit up and join you shortly” Wariko said, taking the pins out of her hair. Behind her Stefan was loosening his scarf. Nightbird nodded and ran out, running to the stairway access and jumping down the center.

Back in the delegation hall, MECH agents had swarmed the area, but were quickly being taken out by Goldbug and Bumblebee. That was until Armorhide launched bolas at Goldbug stopping her in her sparking tracks.

“Gwen!” Ben yelled, going into a mad dash towards Gwen zapping every MECH agent that got in his way, He leapt at Armorhide, who was attempting to pick up the struggling and sparking Goldbug, but was kicked out of the way by the woman. Soundwave returned from escorting delegates out, and assisted Ben to his feat. Just as Soundblaster and Nightbird bursted through the side doors.

“Bibi?” Soundblaster asked upon seeing Soundwave. But Soundwave didn’t even have time to say hello before the woman removed her trenchcoat, revealing four purple robotic spider arms.

“Soundblaster, How’ve you been?” Armorhide said walking up next to the spider-woman “I haven’t seen you since you wounded me” Armorhide flexed his jaw plate, Soundblaster had broken and dislocated it during their last battle.

“Yeah, I’m sorry about that” Soundblaster said, him and Nightbird joining the others with guns raised. “Ben, can you fight?”

“Yeah” Bumblebee said before coughing up blood, Soundwave grabbed him with their arms, and did a quick scan of his injuries, He had three broken ribs, and a bullet in his arm. Soundwave placed him behind them and told him to run. Ben didn’t want to but then they glared at him, making it clear that wasn’t a request.

“So Airachnid, I’m itching for a rematch, you gonna take the ninja or the old lady?” Armorhide said, flame spurting out of his flame thrower and a grenade loading into his launcher.

Airachnid just rolled her eyes and lunged at Soundwave, The Veteran barely having to to dodge, throwing themself to the right, they quickly followed up by grabbing Airachnid’s arms with their own. and tossing her outside.

Armorhide set down a line of flame in between Soundblaster and Nightbird, Then shifted his attention to his rival. Nightbird looked over to Goldbug and saw that she was being dragged out through the hole in the wall. Nightbird threw her Sais at the agent doing the dragging, then did a leaping a kick into the nearest agent, then she pulled out the Stormfall Sword and activated cut down the other agents nearby her friend. But their were more in a van outside, with loaded and ready assaults rifles. Nightbird drew their fire away from the now unconscious Goldbug, taking cover behind a table. Two more agents entered and started dragging Goldbug into the Van. Nightbird tried to get to her, but she was pinned by gunfire

“We got her, boss, we need to extract!” One of the agents yelled into their comm, then one of the agents on top of the van was kicked off of it, while the other two were blasted. The lead agent looked up to see the attacker, Windblade and Starscream. “We need to go! NOW!”

Airachnid was keeping pace with Soundwave, but as soon as she received that call, she shot a sticking ooze onto Soundwaves back, freezing their arms lower motors, and climbing out a skylight.

“Alright, I guess we’ll finish this another day, old friend” Armorhide said placing a line of flame between himself and Soundblaster. Soundblaster unleashed a wave of sound that dispersed the flames, allowing him to tackle Armorhide. Armorhide knocked him off, and pulled out a detonator “Men, you have ten seconds, I’m blowing the block” 

The Van sped off, But Starscream and Windblade gave chase, But as the van a gave a sharp turn, the Building next to them was rocked to it’s foundation by an explosion. The entire sector of the city was exploding as well, rubble fell to the streets below, fire’s erupted from windows.

Armorhide ran through the streets, perfectly dodging every explosion as they happened, leaving Soundblaster and Nightbird struggling to keep up. Suddenly the two spotted debris falling towards a family and they changed course. Soundblaster blasted the massive stone back. Soundblaster and Nightbird looked into the parents eyes as the pushed their daughters forward. Their face’s telling the two ‘Save Them’. Soundblaster and Nightbird grabbed a girl each and placed themselves between them and the debris. Covering the girls ears, so that they would hear the CRUNCH!

After the debris had settled, Soundblaster and Nightbird rose to their feet. Soundblaster offered the little girl his shoulder to cry on, While Nightbird just stood there, hand on her little girl’s head, Both of them Taking in the Carnage and Destruction around them

The Carnage:

She looks like a Queen! Jet must feel so lucky! I love the way you did her face and her spines! Her design is definitely one that can go from menacing to squishy!

Thanks Card, and happy new year!

Welp, here’s the final part of all the OCs I’ll draw! The first panel is Jira, who belongs to @archangeldraws and I believe me when I said I went through like 5 different backgrounds to find the one I was happy with. The color scheme feels like eye candy to me in that one. The second panel is Caelignis, who belongs to @qualxon ; the wings were a nightmare, but I persevered. I also had lots of fun with the lighting on this one. And the first time I had multiple light sources in a drawing of mine. The last panel is Minarva, who belongs to @the–sparrow I knew ever since I began doing these drawings of OCs of other creators that I love, that I was gonna make Minarva stand atop a cliff, as I always felt it to be fitting for her. I’ve now done that and it feels just as fulfilling as I imagined it. The colors were awesome to mess around with there and I’m happy with the pink-red color scheme I went with there.
