Well it's been 4 months since I've posted, and 4 months since I've been able to complete any artwork. In January I went through a depressive period and since then it feels like all joy surrounding art has been sucked out of me.
This burnout has been a long time coming, slowly over the last 4 years I've been producing less and less, my inspiration fading away, unable to visualise what I want to draw anymore. I miss the days where I enjoyed art and could pump out finished pieces weekly, where I'd come home and feel excited about drawing.
I still love Transformers, and I know I will come back to art eventually, but in the meantime I'm putting the pen down. There's no sense forcing myself anymore
Thank you for the support <3
finally finished my screamer
My AU's Optimus Prime, transforms into the AH12: HC Helicopter from Armoured Core 6 ^^
(rotors can unfurl like wings fr)
Creamer WIP for my AU~
His comically large laser rifle is called The Crown and it's his autistic comfort item (Kurosawa from Armored Core)
My seekers also have thrusters in the shins instead of the heels, with a second pair below the wings, which lets them do the Armored Core boost glide ^^
(I like Armoured Core)
thank god another enlightened individual (beast wars enjoyer)
All must watch Beast Wars!!! We watched it as a joke at first because funny animation but after only 2!!! Episodes we realised it was actually AMAZING!!!
Some Beast Wars redesigns!! Annotations below :3
Edit: wow mobile quality is terrible, i hate you tumble
INFERNO
I went very heavy with the knight imagery, serving his rrroyalty!! Went with a mix between a trapjaw ant and turtle ant because I wanted a shield. He has dual flame-throwers on his back/shoulders connected to the ant-butt because might as well add another mix with the yellow crazy ant, that sprays acid (in this case flammable liquid) through it's rear!
Being grabbed by those extremely strong, extremely fast mandibles of the trapjaw ant before being blasted by a flamethrower to the face sounds like a wonderful time <3
RATTRAP
Rattrap I wanted it to feel like an Italian mobster, I think I went a little too on-the-nose but, I like it! He has a fedora-type helmet, with a lovely cigar alongside some hidden suspenders and I tried to make the rat head have a tie - on his wrists he has tools such as lockpicking devices, torch, other things ;)
In my continuity he's primarily infiltration and sabotage, with a heavy preference for explosives
RAMPAGE
Rampage was fun, I stuck heavily to his BW design but I wanted the mutant freak part of him to be more emphasised. So, the crab has teeth. And 6 legs? I gave him extra arms because it would be quite hard to grab things with those mega pincers, but also extra arms are cool as fuck. He also has spurs and leg-guns because, again, cool as fuck. I love how his biolights turned out!
I didn't want to spend time drawing massive guns but he does still have his rotating grenade launcher thing - it has all sorts: hellfire missiles, acid bombs, napalm grenades, and other nightmares <3
DEPTH CHARGE
Depth Charge was very fun also, I wanted his colouring to be extremely opposite to Rampage's so he has very muted cool tones while Rampage is blindingly bright. He has twin remora-shotgun things on his shoulders, and I wanted the manta to be more manta, less metallic. I enjoyed doing the gold highlights to add a bit of grandeur and elegance to him.
In my continuity his primary weapon is the Blades of Chaos from GoW :'))
Fortress Maximus redesign!! I've loved doing these recently, though I hate figuring out colour schemes so if anyone has any advice I'd love to hear nwn
I wanted a lot of angel/knight imagery to contrast with the tortured persona - a bit of a central-Europe theme with auroch horns, medieval knight helm (frogsmouth nyehe), gun-wings and of course the tank
Proper WIP of my Soundwave design <3
There's nothing like the terror you feel when trying to make sense of your own garbo sketches.. I may add Shockwave if I can be bothered to go through that again
I HATE drawing backgrounds!!!!!!!
I got sick near the end of this and just wanted it to be finished ;-;
I love Depth Charge and had so much fun with this design please watch Beast Wars please please
first tumblr post! the image quality got lowered a bit, but i could not give less of a crap anymore.
my buddy was like, "dude make beast wars fanart" so this was my response to that
Lemme just like and reblog every single one of these because WOW
AAAAA thank you, that means a lot!! :'D
Sorry for spamming, I definitely went down the rabbit hole of your blog. Your art is so stunning like hello?!! So pretty~
Hello!! Donât apologise, I really appreciate that you loved it so much!!! Iâm usually satisfied with my art but overall my confidence isnât that great, itâs so lovely to hear this from you!! Thank you so much <333
Jazz WIP
I'm only in the mood for sketches recently nwn
Aww thank you!! Iâm so glad you could tell them apart :,)))
Accidental bisexual lighting but it works hehe - I tend to do blocks of grey before rough coloured lighting when I sketch so I can get a better picture for how the actual colours will work
Elite Trine sketch, I got bored halfway through so sorry Skywarp :3

Wavewave redesigns for my personal continuity..
Soundwave turns into a UAV and Shockwave into a submarine - I used poor Nautica for reference since I had NO CLUE?? Can't really tell alt modes anyway since its so rough but oh welllll~
I love biolights and I need as many as possible
I am the presence anointed to carry forth the light. The original light, that which has no beginning and no end. Its searing heat shall purify the earth... purging this world of all flaws, and preparing it for what lies ahead.

Rubber Ducky is finally complete..
Started watching Beast Wars and fell in love with Rubber Ducky, the star of the show
Well while messing around with colours I flattened the image, saved without realising, then closed CSP so now I've lost all my layers. Here's the finished product I guess đđđđđđđđ
Not mad at all.. đ
I just wanted to do Kup idk where the other two freaks came from
uhh they smoking the zaza WIP
Oh yes I do like G1 Dez!! Itâs just very silly and the blocky, strange anatomy doesnât translate well into both my artstyle and my fan continuity in my head so xD
My Deathsaurus design! I wanted him to be a gryphon, and went with a lot more G1 inspiration mixed with MTMTE
No, actually!! I completely forgot this guy existed QAQ
I never watched Predacons Rising but I did see Skylynx's design halfway through sketching and though "huh what a coincidence" but I guess a robot gryphon is gonna look similar no matter what you do??? I actually got the wings from Gogmazios from Monster Hunter, with his big old walking wings - I debated giving him feathers or going with the Predaking-type wings and decided Predaking's made more sense
The reason for designing this actually was the fact that I thought Victory Dez alt-mode was very silly, and while I liked the dragon-looking look of MTMTE Dez I HATED it's colour scheme xD
So I thought "well if I dislike all his alt modes then might as well make my own"
