Transformers: Prime Decepticons - Hands

So, I was looking at hands, as one does when they’re bored, and I noticed a few things:

Every single ‘Con has claws, except Soundwave and Breakdown.

Megatron, Starscream, Shockwave, Dreadwing, Skyquake, Knockout, and Airachnid have 5 fingers.

Soundwave, Breakdown, Insecticons, Predaking, Darksteel, and Skylynx have 4 fingers.

Vehicons only have 3 fingers.

Predacon claws are flawless in form and aesthetic.

While I know Soundwave has spindly fingers for practical reasons, it’s the perfect symbolic representation of how he declawed himself for the sake of the Cause, giving up much of his power to follow Megatron.

Kudos to the character designers for crafting each Decepticon’s hands to match their function:

Megatron, Dreadwing, Skyquake: Sharp and wide for various combat situations

Soundwave: Thin and straight for work with computers and tech

Starscream: Light and “bony,” perfect for a flight frame

Shockwave, Knockout, and Airachnid: Sharp and delicate for scientific and/or medical work

Breakdown: Wide and blunt for brute force attacks

Vehicons: Useless

Insecticons: Wide and curved for digging and slashing

Predacons: Sharp with additional armor plating for evisceration (help I love this word so much)

The Autobots could only dream of having hands this masterfully crafted ✨

Commission for @emperor-kumquat, where Darksteel and Skylynx are displeased at the choice of his leader. Scene from this chapter of Mercy

Another thing I appreciate about this story is the amount of attention the Predacons get, since Predaking is the protagonist. The predacons definitely deserve it.

It’s actually really cool to see Darksteel be expressive in Predacon mode, but NOOOO, POOR BABY, HE IS SHOCKED.

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE!

This lil doodle here I consider to be one of my best artworks so far. I spent a ridiculous amount of time on it, but, I think it was worth it in the end.

Whoever reads this, I wish you an awesome new year.

Without any further ado, here is a no text version

Predacons reaction to cybertonian crush giving them shiny gems they found cause they thought the cons would love it

Extremely aware that it means they said yes to a marriage proposal cause the predacons have been giving them gifts and trinkets, soo they researched about it and realized the mfs been COURTING them so why not give the darling a response?

[ Please do not repost, plagiarize, or use my writing for AI! Translating my work with proper credit is acceptable, but please ask first! ]

Predaking

He's very touched that you decided to return the favor, but never would he have guessed that you'd decide to propose! Being ever so lovestruck and pleasantly surprised, he accepts without a smidge of hesitation.

Ideally, he'd want some fancy commemorative ceremony. Something very grand and pompous to show off his new partner. But given the fact that both Cybertron and Earth don't have much to offer, he'll just have to settle for something small. On the other hand, if you don't want any big, fancy ceremony, you'll have to sit down and talk it out because he loves the idea the ceremony a bit too much.

Skylynx

He's happy, yes, but he handles this much more carefully with more tact than the other two do. He'll sit you down and talk about what this means, what will happen, et cetera.. And after the two of you talk things out and clear things up, he'll gladly accept.

He may not know much about cybertronian culture, but when he learns about marriage or conjunx ceremonies, he thinks that they're lovely ways to commemorate and officiate your love. He's not too particular about how it should go, and he's fine with the bare minimum, but if you don't want any ceremony that's fine by him.

Darksteel

He's just as lovestruck and eager to accept your proposal as Predaking is. No second-thoughts, no talking it over, he says yes there and then. He doesn't care about any fancy ceremonies to commemorate your love, and he doesn't really see the beauty in it. All he cares about is the fact he'll finally get to call you his partner. He's so excited that he scoops you up in the biggest, tightest hug, and he doesn't even realize he was hugging a bit too tightly.

Same Anon who asked about Transformers as dogs. Since your response focused mainly on TFP, it got me wondering what the characters in your AU, "The Polar Star", would be if they were dogs. What do you think? (Personally, I think Skyfire would be one of those big, fluffy, Northern breeds.)

So here the video ^^ I will not put the characters I showed in the first video, because it will be the same thing, The Polar Star is still in TFP vibes. But, I'm then going to show others characters that we can saw in my story ;).

Decepticon:

Steve the Vehicon : Labrador Retriever

Predacons:

Skylynx : Pitbull

Darksteel : Chocolat Labrador

Autobot:

Prowl : Akita

Perchance To Dream: Thinking about Predaking basking in the sun with his baby brothers Darksteel and Skylynx

That'd be so cool, yesss

[melishade]

I love your ideas but I was wondering if you had any idea of what would happen if the Predacons that died in season 3 wound up in paradise during season 1 i really like the idea of young Eren finding them and taking them in and adopted if you think its a bit out there i don't mind but I was wondering what you think of the idea

I appreciate the kind praise, but I don't know how far I would be able to take that idea.

Darksteel and Skylynx were only in the Predacons Rising Movie, and their lines are very minimal. Skylynx is more cautious while Darksteel is amused by pretty much anything. They're pretty one note characters. It's not the same amount of depth compared to Predaking because they already know how to transform and Shockwave made alterations to their intelligence to keep their loyalty.

I suppose this could be some sort of "How to Train Your Dragon" scenario, but I have no idea how the Predacons would react to humans. Actually, they would probably just destroy the humans because they are weak and they only believe in Predacon might, unless someone else beats them into submission.

Also Kid Eren would probably just see a titan and try to kill it. Maybe Eren's will to pick a fight wins them over. IDK.

TFP Warrior Cats au (Allegiances)

Inspired by @spinecorset 's art of the Decepticon leaders as cats.

I either need to do some genderbending or come up with some sort of a justification for why there's literally one female character in each clan, because it's not genetically viable.

I also have no idea what to do with the human characters or how the plot would actually work. Maybe there was originally one group, like The Ancients, but it shattered for some reason, resulting in Pathclan and Flightclan. However it's still set in the Nevada desert.

I also have no idea what to do with the relics, Unicron, dak energon, Allspark, and the human characters (the only thing i can think for them to be is rat colonies). I have an extremely rough draft of a six-"book" arc i wrote, but i haven't watched TFP in years so i definitely forgot some events.

Please help me with the remaining names, so writing will be easier.

I love it when Predacons display emotions in their beast modes. It looks like Darksteel is laughing when he thinks he smoked Smokescreen.
