I was chatting with Andy on discord a bit ago and it turns out I miSSED MY BOI SHOCKWAVE’S BIRTHDAY AAAA HECK

he was presumably looking through old drawings of his and found the first concept/ref of him I had commissioned, which was done back on the 19th of june last year. And I went back into my old stuff and dug of Soundwave’s first ref and that was made on the 11th of april so like. BRUH

MY BOYS ARE OVER A YEAR OLD ALREADY I CANT BELIEVE THIS they grow up,,, , , so fast,, ,, ,

BOI I’ve had this sitting around for days I just kept forgetting to post it ya dUMMY HSGDHSNS but hey uhhh I’m back from Zenkai!! It was an absolute bLAST I had a ton of fun with my friends and went to a couple super cool panels and saw so many incredible cosplays!

one thing I did notice this year though was that there were like?? way more fursuiters there than last year?? which was super cool! and it pretty much only boosted my want for the partial suits of my wave boys I wanna hopefully get someday so I,, ,,, started sketching out some ideas for like,, ,, outfits n stuff for em,, , , and all that,,, , , 👀👀👀👀

OOF HEY I GOTTA SPILL THIS TO SOMEONE SOMEHOW SOMEWAY BC IF I DON’T I FEEL LIKE IM GONNA GO NUTS AAAAA

I’m like,, , , lowkey considering shipping Soundwave and Shockwave. And like. Making that A Thing. But I’m not sure about it yet. I know wavewave is a pretty popular ship as far as TFs is concerned, and while I admit it’s pretty cute (esp within G1 omg), do I wanna bring that over to my ocs?? I’m really unsure, and very torn about it. I’ve never done this before, I’ve never paired any of my ocs together in the past, and I don’t know how I feel just yet about suddenly realizing I have this kind of power omg omg omg

The main driving force for this idea came from an amv I wanna make to this one part in Aishite Aishite Aishite (That Part y’know the one everyone uses for amvs like that gshgdndns). It’d be about an experimental AU in their shared story where at one point Shockwave would develop feelings for Soundwave, but they’d be unrequited, and the amv would kinda play that whole thing out. But the more I thought about the whole concept, the more ideas I’d get. I have another REALLY GOOD amv I wanna make to Aurora Borealis, another to Decoy World, and another to Hours, and yet another map-inspired one to this one part in Attention, a couple animation memes, and I even have a really nice anGSTY SAD AU I made up with a pal on discord at one in the morning (we call it the Crystal Death AU and it has to do with disquette-prone diseases, and it was all inspired by crystal gore artwork we were sharing at the time. If u wanna hear about that lemme know I’d be more than happy to explain bc I’m super into the idea?? I still haven’t drawn anything for it yet but I very much want to sometime HA)

like on one hand I keep finding myself coming up with all these cool amvs and story ideas centered around them being together, or having more significance because of that, but at the same time I’m hesitant about really pursuing it. So I’m not sure. Maybe once I make that Aishite amv and get some more feedback on the concept I’ll be able to make a decision, but for now, it’s not canon.

There’s a lot of concepts and ideas I have and are currently developing that have to do with their lore that I haven’t really talked about anywhere actually?? Mostly because 1.) there’s three more characters that are in it that I don’t have yet bc they’re all a part of closed species so like. I’m technically Not Allowed to have them but I still have whole developed ideas for how I wanna use them for when I do eventually get them, and 2.) I’m still working on fleshing it all out! Like I said I have some concepts I’m putting together and like bits and pieces of polished stuff but nothing really solid or definite. Not yet. I may eventually try to draw some of them out just to get them out there, because I really do like it a lot, I love these ocs a lot, and I’m loving getting to develop this little story for them?? I’ve never really done this before but it’s so fun?? but for now it’s all just in my head.

so yeah. Idk my dudes, but I’m very, very tempted.

rewatched Iron Man the other night and for whatever reason it really made me wanna draw my wave boys in fancy suits?? not too sure why tbh maybe it was all the parties or something pffftt

Soundwave keeps it classy while Shockwave’s got more of those Tony Stark vibes 👌👌👌

I completely blame Pix for this

[localrobosexual]

mood suddenly dropped the other night and I felt Heckin Awful so I watched some TFA to try to cheer myself up, the ep I watched had Shockwave in it so naturally that made me wanna draw my Disquette a bunch!

plus some bonus Soundwaves bc I apparently can’t draw one without the other lol

deep in the source code of our love there's a line and one above and the two just don't connect though the syntax is correct so it starts becoming slow then the buffer overflows now there's jumbled glitchy trash I might crash!

youtube’s been recommending me a bunch of people’s OC’s voice claim videos lately, and that got me thinking about my own characters and what their voices could possibly sound like

so far only two out of my like probably almost 20-something OCs have actual confirmed voice claims that I like and can envision clearly: my disquette Shockwave’s being in his main theme In Case It Crashes and Seaside’s (my TF oc who I still have yet to actually design) being in his main theme as well, Hello Sunshine

recently I’ve been looking around for a good voice for my protogen Soundwave, too, but like?? I’m not too sure I wanna give him TFP’s (or any other actual canon Soundwave’s) voice, just because of how different he is character-wise?? Like yeah, he’s based off of TFP Soundwave, but he hasn’t got quite the same personality and emotions and stuff. He’s similar, but not a carbon copy. So I don’t think a canon TF Soundwave voice would fit too too well for him.

in any case, his voice would still be relatively deep I think, and highly synthesized, maybe with a little bit of echo even?? Definitely more stereotypically robotic in nature. The Kaito cover of Bacterial Infection has something close to what I’m looking for, but idk?? it’s still a little bit heavy for me. Getting there, but not quite!

I’m pretty sure it’s tradition now that every time I get/make a new character I gotta draw them in some weird floaty pose in front of a circle background that shows off that oc’s aesthetic pffffttt
