Big 'ol sketch page of the main four Renegades!!
Except I drew them all as plushies because I didn't feel like contending with boxes when I started this thing
(started it in March and was gradually chipping away at it over the last few months)
I wanted to completely fill out the page before I posted, buuuuuuuuut I knew if I did that it'd take at least a year to do so
Below the cut you will find a metric ton of close-ups:
Kind of a small tangent--
If you're wondering why there's been a sudden (mild) influx of Crasher/Cy-Kill art, it's because I read this little ficlet early in the year and it kinda sold me on the pairing lol
Wow, I really do have a tendency to go from "Okay, this time I'll try not to put so much attention on shipping" to "Oops! All Polycules!" the longer I'm engaging with an interest, huh?
This may be a hot take and I may be just yelling into the void with this post but I feel like specifically the designs for Cy-kill and Leader-1 in The Challenge of the GoBots (despite how cheese they can look) are the best looking designs for the two.
I just fell like a lot of times when they are shown as their original comic/Japanese designs or the more recent 2019 designs that the designers just miss the point or there is no real interest in the way they look.
The TV show did a pretty good job at showing the difference between the two. Like how Cy-kill is short and wide while leader-1 is more thin and tall, or how Cy-kill is more pointy in the face while leader-1 is more rounded.
My favorite example of this has got to be with there mask like facial features, where they show the exact opposite traits of each other. Leader-1βs mask is round while Cy-killβs is pointy. Along with the fact that the twoβs masks are the exact inverse of each otherβs colors.
I know that technically itβs still the same thing in the original designs, but the yellow pupils for Cy-kill with no markings around it and the yellow face mask thing for Leader-1 just doesnβt add the same kind of interest or contrast. You really have to look closely to notice that itβs was even a design choice to begin with.

Hello there!
Would it be rude of me to ask how your GoBot Miis are doing?
I know I haven't directly said anything to you yet, but I think your li'l guys are so cute and silly and adorable and I'd very much like to see more of them if possible ^v^
(Also Tomodachi Life in general has been taking over my brain lately so any crossover with existing interests is very welcome hgftgjhk)
You may! I hadn't played Tomodachi life for a hot second but it was nice to jump back into it.
Part of the reason I haven't posted the gobots anymore is because I had to re-draw them all for my main save and that was really annoying, but I got up and finished Small foot this morning!
Slowly getting the gang together. I'll probably do Turbo next since A.J. needs her bestie.
Crasher and Leader-1 have been on the island for a while though, long enough to get up to some shenanigans.
My Island is like. 80% OCs lmao. But me and a friend have a running joke that Crasher's type is Bald, given she used to have a crush on Leader-1 in the show.
Unfortunately Vapor is seeing someone else, better luck next time Crasher!
In a similar vein, Leader-1 had a crush on Teto for a hot second, but she rejected him
Going to put the rest of my screenshots under the cut bot please enjoy.
