I think the biggest damage to the art community was the obsolescence of gallery sites (y!, deviantart, etc) and the rise of scroll-by social media, like twitter and even tumblr. Art is not ''content'', you shouldnt need to post art every day (or every month!) to be relevant. This mindset sucks.

Truly 🀭 the more I colored them in, the more it all worked. Looked more like how I pictured them

Lmao yup yup 🀣 that's Flatline. Just as much a soldier as they are a medic.

Also, Flatline uses they/them pronouns πŸ˜‰

Their design really did come together a whole lot better when it got some color splashed onto it cuz in the beginning I was a bit worried ngl 🫣

And they are 😌 tho be careful. As a Combat Medic, they won't hesitate to shoot you if necessary 🀭

Happy to hear that cuz it's just a quick sketch that I decided to color lol

And Flatline used they/them pronouns πŸ˜‰ but they really are a stunning mech.

I can see him struggling with committed relationships cuz of his parents whole situation πŸ€” and I do imagine he's more charismatic, adaptable and flirty than Flatline since he works in a field where it is necessary to be likable and playing it up for the audience and the cameras

Took me a few months, but let me officially introduce the elder of the Dratchet twins, Flatline.

I'll get to their twin brother, Viral, eventually 🫣

I definitely see it, and Viral is a competitive racer and a sports alt, so he was bound to be on the slimmer side

In the face, definitely! That's all Ratchet, aside from his optic shape. But I think that's just cuz Ratchet has a very distinct chin lol 🀭 tho Viral is more of a proper mix of his parents, while Flatline is a mini copy of their sire (the fact they're a medic and painted red and white don't help)

Luckily for Flatline, they got Ratchet's optic shape and faceplate. Unfortunately, they got Deadlock's face shape, helm and finials, optic color, dentae etc lol one can go on πŸ₯² poor Ratchet's code didn't stand a chance

Like a proper slap on the face lol 🀣 but gotta look on the positive! No one can argue that Flatline isn't Deadlock's 🀭

A black and white line art fake cover. In the upper left corner is a black and white logo for the Transformers Animated cartoon. The piece features Ratchet kneeling behind some rubble, glaring at Deadlock who's sitting with his back towards Ratchet on the other side of the rubble, smirking at him. Ratchet is holding a blanket with two sparklings against his chassis, protective and is holding a gun in his other, looking like he's ready to shoot if he has to. One of the sparklings is looking up in mild confusin while the other is trying to peak over Ratchet's chassis.

Knowing me, I'll take a year or two to ever actually finish this, so I'm just sharing it now as a black and white line art piece

I have to admit, the line art came out better than I thought, but I'm gonna sit on it for a bit before I do anything more with it or post it. But I am getting excited to finish it and make it look like a proper comic cover 😁

After all the pain and stress and fear of doing this all alone, he gets a moment of happiness and light at the end of tunnel πŸ₯Ή how could he not cry seeing that adorable lil smile, so dependant on him. He's their whole world πŸ˜­πŸ–€

Yup, Flatline was both born first and unfurled first. Viral, the larger one that's still a lil alt mode orb, took a little longer.

And this is the first meeting with his beb πŸ₯Ή like proper meeting since they were born. So many feelings all at once, I'm sure

Rough sketch of a Murder Hornet designed Blitzwing with his random face sitting down with his legs spread apart. He's holding a flower coblet with honey spilling over the side in one hand. On one of his thighs sits a Honey Bee designed Bumblebee.

Note to self, make sure that the first time you draw a character isn't when you're trying to redesign them lmao

Anyway, an attempt was made at Murder Hornet Blitzwing
