Idk how yall do it bruh, I am not gods strongest soldier bc how tf do you even draw mechs🗣️🗣️🗣️💀😭🙏🏽I rly struggled and wanted to be fun with giving OP some detailed helm pieces/mods but about halfway through I gave up and just did whatever with no sketches or references. I tried to draw his tfONE design but with elements of his prime design
‼️⬇️Yapping below⬇️‼️
I have been trying to make some hdcs for an au I’m working on for them. One of them being that Optimus gets modded to all hell for temple visits, it takes about let’s say the equivalent of at least three earth days of preparation. Everybot that is able to makes him pieces and armor just for him to wear on these visits, like they’ll be stuck in the forge until they make something they think is worthy of being worn by him🔨. These pieces also take a long time to put on him, since he takes off all of his original armor and some parts are more intricate than others. He also keeps his chest bare and the matrix visible.
Since he’s the closest being to primus and the only current prime, he puts a lot of pride into his appearance within the temples. He also does not wear his battle mask at all within the temples or other settings that have any sort of religious/sacred semblance. He considers himself to not be the biggest presence whenever he’s in these places so he feels comfortable enough to let his guard down and present the scarred and damaged parts of him as they are. As if he were also one of primus’ sparklings. It goes without saying that bloodshed is forbidden within the temples, and he allows any decepticons (who wish to do so) to attend or be present for events, though neither except for a handful have taken advantage of this act of sincerity.
I have so many headcanons about sparklings for this au as well, one of them being that there’s not really any “infant” stages in most instances of their “births”. In this au there is more than one way for a bot to come into existence, but one of the main points I want to make is that no bots actually go through a pregnancy type phase as I want to fully go in with their asexual reproduction methods. Optimus is the exception to this but even then he can’t carry an actual form within himself, rather, he creates sparks that will later on inhabit bot forms. Hence the bee sketch I made here, he is giving his form its spark. (More on bee later though, I have more details on him)🔊. Optimus does manage to create shells which ig you could say are “eggs” at some point, and technically something he created/birthed, except in order for these shells to develop proper protoforms and develop enough to be transferred to a second location for further care, the caretaker(in this case whoever cares for them would be a mentor/parental figure) would have to “feed” it parts of themself and portion energon fuels to it. This is probably one of the more tedious methods but it does allow for the new generation of bots to directly inherit traits and appearances from whoever cared for it.
There are many methods but they all occur at different points in time in accordance to the planet’s current state or how Optimus is feeling and ultimately decided by primus. He usually feels a calling or instinctually does some odd things in order for there to be a mass of bots being brought online. He didn’t even know he was building bees form until he was almost finished🗣️, but further on that, Bee is the only bot he has ever personally built piece by piece and brought online all by himself. It is also why he is so precious to him.
Many assume that it’s bc he made Bee in primus’ image, but Bee was made with so much care and hope and was created with everything Optimus had in mind for him, he was made in Optimus’ image not Primus. Bee is the closest Primus has ever allowed Optimus come to being an actual god, as he fully created him from scratch and even protected the spark he made for him for centuries until he finally brought him online. I thought it’d be a nice contrast to have the bots/sparklings all have a colorless form before they’re brought online, like how they lose all their color after they die. So, Bee here is gaining his frame color. His birth is also witnessed by nearly all of cybertron when Optimus brings him online.
As for cliffjumper and hot rod, they come from other instances/ clutches of sparklings and would literally be Optimus “pick of the litter” if we’re being real. Even then he usually feels a connection to them before they’re brought online are even brought online. They are his protégés basically and are considered to be Optimus’ heirs in a way. Optimus also has many “bastards” that he procured among his high command. Though most of them have no clue that they are. In this instance, Optimus gives a spark for the bots amongst him to protect within their chassis and that established their direct link to them. Ik it all sounds complicated but I’ve been hallucinating all of these scenarios at work for months, so it makes sense to me💔
I have a lot more on their personalities and how Optimus, Bee, CJ, and HR operate as a monarchy but this has already been such a big yap. I’ll save the rest for later for when I have more energy to do another TF post bc why are they so hard.
Tried something new with the hair rendering🙏🏽. Anyways onto yap central‼️⚠️🔊⚠️‼️: I originally had thought of Touka being Kaneki’s toxic ex for the au but the more I thought about it, the more Tsukiyama having that role made sense for me. Their relationship is very transactional but there’s this blurred line of them nearly having actual affection for each other but there’s always something that holds them back.
Tsukiyama likes to indulge Kaneki and his preference for having women as his “main course”, but in the way that Tsukiyama opened up more options for Kaneki to give in to his obsessive and violent tendencies for his kills. Kaneki can get a bit extravagant with his binges and that’s what drew Tsukiyama to him. Tsukiyama mainly wanted someone else to share his knack for a quality meal with and Kaneki only viewed his introduction to Tsukiyama’s method of eating as a new form of torture for his victims rather than a way to enjoy every last bit of flesh from them.
They met at college, where Kaneki is currently a freshman and Tsukiyama a Junior/Senior. Back when I still thought of Touka as an option I remembered about their age gap, which I still dislike but don’t entirely hate, it’s just weird and crazy to me that she was still a HS student when Kaneki was in COLLEGE HELLO?!?!😭😭💀anwyays, Tsukiyama seems like the reasonable option age wise, but he’s so crazy that he just fits.
Kaneki is nonchalant in terms of how he acts with/towards Tsukiyama. Which Tsukiyama hates bc he eventually does end up liking Kaneki and they have a situationship of some sort but neither one of them fully acknowledges it. Kaneki doesn’t because he isn’t the type to let Tsukiyama exert a power dynamic over him. Tsukiyama doesn’t because he doesn’t want him to drift apart and he’s been the closest person to him that he shares his lifestyle with.
Tsukiyama is toxic and attempts to be controlling whenever he gets jealous but Kaneki is so above it that he just doesn’t care or is simply annoyed by it. He treats Tsukiyama like a nuisance and merely uses him for anything he wants. Tsukiyama is rich so that’s a plus. When Kaneki “dies” Tsukiyama is devastated, but he doesn’t notice or realize he’s actually dead at first since Kaneki had a tendency to ghost him and other people frequently.
Tsukiyama actually thinks Rize is just some persona Kaneki was wearing when he meets her, he recognizes Kanekis scent and Kaneki would occasionally cross dress for a multitude of reasons I’m not gonna get into rn but yeah. It’s funny but crazy and she doesn’t know how to deal with him. However, whenever she senses Tsukiyama or his scent nearby her body reacts to it in an uneasy way. Her “hallucinations’ of Kaneki warn her and are wary of him, but nothing really past that.
Im still sitting on kanekis backstory and his relationships with other people, as well as who his father is in this. A part of me wants to establish Arima as his father that abandoned him but the other part is interested in exploring Jason as his mentor/father figure. Idk yall lmao. Maybe both but I’m still trying to figure out how everything would fit.😔
Haven’t watched the latest episode yet but I’ve been working on this for like two weeks lmao😔so glad it seems like Paul is gonna be sticking around and everyone better STFU AND NOT JINX IT🗣️🗣️🗣️🙏🏽😭😫
Why don’t more people like him actually😔I love Paul so much it makes me ill. But anyways, thought it’d be cute to show them being corny and domestic. Also Paul helped raise baby Oliver and Nolan left way before that and Paul and Debbie have been together for a yr before Oliver showed up, I was in the writing room when this happened btw. I would know.
He is like the best ever step father to Mark and he listens to all of Mark’s crazy work stories and relates to him about crazy customers and working with difficult people haha. I feel like atp if Mark had a secret stash to smoke, Debbie would find and confiscate it but share it with Paul. They find them high asf on the roof when Eve and Mark go up to hang out or something idk. I’m making this up, but actually no I’m not this actually happened huh who said that.
Anyways. There was an extra funny bit I thought of while drawing this: Mark asking a coworker for Ibuprofen but yall never trust a coworker bc that mf gave him some crazy shit and now he can’t blink, and he leaves work without telling anyone and walks into Debbie’s room in a “I frew up” way and is like bro “I think I’m dying” and they all have an eventful trip to the ER🫠. Idk I feel like that would happen to him bc he can’t get a break.
Debbie and Paul take turns driving Mark to and from work. Btw has Mark ever driven or know how to, now that I think about it?? Never seen him drive but ig he wouldn’t have use for it. I just find it funny he is driven around everywhere/ so me coded but in the worst way possible💔
Paul birthed Oliver, don’t ask why he’s purple, babies just come out that way in-universe./j but am I rly👁️👁️ anyways I’m just yapping and lowkey wanted to make omega Paul and Alpha Debbie art but was like nahhh😔🥀might at some point tho bc yall missing out on how breedable Paul’s aura is. Also is Pebbie their ship name?!?? Idk I just came up with that and running with it.
Btw paul was hard to draw🫠I tried my best so if he doesn’t look like he should apologies🙏🏽💔
I wanna draw jearmin so bad it's not even funny. I rlly need to try a daily doodle or something bc I can't do this anymore. I only draw when I for sure have the energy and vision. It sucks bc I have so much stuff just sitting in drafts. Looking at me with their little neglected hamster eyes.😔
Like you guys don't even know. I read this jearmin fic like 2 yrs ago of an au where Armin is a tybur on the mainland and Jean is the jaw titan, where they have secretly been together and spend time together because Jean is about to be sent away to Paradis for the mission💔🥀😭it was literally so good. One of the best ever and I have been trying to find it🥀
Going insane at work bc I can't stop thinking about how Sakura was hinted at possibly becoming a genjutsu user/master in early Naruto, and how if she had held onto that she would've been SO GREAT at it😫😭
[Yapping below]
Like it's been years since I've watched anything Naruto and I left off abruptly and haven't even touched shipuden, but it's always plagued me how Sakura and Hinata's potential and development were nerfed.
All this to say I can't stop thinking about an au where she leaves on a mission or something as a pair with another student and Kurenai as the leader. It's a high profile mission so it basically guarantees that she won't be back for a couple of years💔but at this point Sakura has been weighing her options and decides to specialize in Genjutsu so she begs Tsunade and everyone else involved if she can go too, since it'll be her only chance at learning it since there aren't many others who specialize in it.
She fears not taking the chance will put her behind her peers in terms of skill and experience. Anwyays yeah I'm going insane. Bc imagine her coming back to the village yrs later without announcing herself and she helps out someone else on a mission as backup and she just HAS THAT SHIT DOWN🗣🗣🗣
And her VS LITERALLY ANY OF THE UCHIHAS LEFT🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽yall better pack it up bc she is ready to clean the floor bro😭
I'm also contemplating having Hinata be the tag along student bc GET HER AWAY FROM HER TOXIC ASS FAMILY. I have more to say but I'll keep this short.
Happy Valentine’s Day to my toxic yuri truthers🙏🏽⛓️🌹🎀
Been working on this for months and decided it fit better and was cuter for valentines than what I initially planned for it. Not me rendering it in a day💔
Anyways I’ve missed my redlciff and hope yall see my vision🙏🏽it would’ve made more sense if i made a realistic version with Red as a doctor but i let them be cute together here. Maybe I’ll do a follow up of this with that idea in mind at a later time. Also ignore the height difference, that was a complete accident and I wanna let Grell be her demure petite self🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️😔💖
Grell would totally fake an injury just to get kisses from her wife.
Finishing this also got me thinking of possibly making an au where Madam Red becomes a reaper too but idk. Anyways yeah.
Idw, I wanna draw more transformers stuff but there's just too many ideas to go around in my head. The one that stands out the most to me though is Optimus raising Cliffjumper, Bee, and Hot Rod with rare knowledge and a semi religious upbringing.
Like, I can for sure imagine Cliff and Rod being so "ughhhh why do we still have to go to the temple?!" to optimus and Bee is sort of off to the side and later on once their service or whatever begins, Bee tries to level with them while theyre off to the side and is very: "once cybertron has more primes it'll be our job to uphold the values of the primacy" being raised by Op and all.
But mostly because this is the one thing Optimus makes no compromise on and the only time he can really be himself is within a temple, a place where all are sparklings in the eyes of primus/cybertron. He allows himself to be more laid back because he's no longer the big entity that has to keep it together when he's there.
It's the only time their dad gets to be their dad and Bee wants to at least let him have this.
A shitpost but not rly, confession: I always wondered how Tōsen got his hair done. Thought it’d be funny if he had the whole squad getting him fresh once he’s feeling a new style.😭
Like ik he very well could’ve just done it himself, given the absurd amount of time they seem to have, but idk I feel like the show does a pretty good job of establishing his blindness so for some reason it just doesn’t click to me that he would go out of his way to do it himself or even have a similar concept of his appearance compared to the others around him.
Like, yes he’d have to have some upkeep with it just bc of the texture but it always made me pause when he would pull up with a new look, lmao. Ik literally every other character shows up looking brand new every once in a while bc of the time skips and their ages but every time id just sit there like🤨🤔trying to rack my brain on how long it took Shuuhei or basically anyone else in their squad to step up and help him with a fresh set of braids. He had twists I’m pretty sure at some point, and those would be easy enough for him to do on his own, BUT HIS BRAIDS DURING THE AIZEN ARC??!?!?
WHO TF IN LAS NOCHES BECAME HIS STYLIST BC HE WAS FRESH AF😭😭😭😭😫🎀 ik it wasn’t ANY of the espada bc them mfs too petty for anything 💀I rly wanna draw a couple of extras to this bc was AIZEN HIMSELF laying his edges down or did they just have some randos do it for him.
Anyways. I tried drawing him in a variation of styles, this shit was hard bro. I rly tried to have him with locs and chains attached to them but I’m not sure if they’re that noticeable or even translated well. Also I loved the idea of Shuuhei being the one tasked with his hair and partially his fits, and since he is his right hand man within the squad a lot of things would naturally fall on him.
Omg guys no bc I love that Tosen has the orange motif, he was already dripped out 24/7 but the signature color?!?! He knew he was badddddd🙏🏽😫🥀
Did I ever mention I have a fast food/modern AU✨🍔✨
This is actually supposed to be a Reiner-centric AU where he is Gabi’s legal guardian and is roommates with Bertolt and I’m still working out what everyone’s jobs are and their life situations. Decided to include a glimpse of Armin, Mikasa, and Eren lmao. ‼️⚠️⬇️Yap sesh⬇️⚠️‼️
Bertolt at first was working at the same place as Reiner when I was first making this AU last yr but after thinking about it for months I decided it’d be better (and more interesting🗣️) if he just had a diff job. Reiner works mornings while Bert works nights, so they don’t see each other unless on their days off or getting munchies. They share an apt for now (miraculously a 3bed/1bath except the rent is cheap for a reason bro😭)and are saving up to move into an actual house because of Gabi. Gabi goes to a public school nearby and rides the bus🙏🏽she’s a typical bad kid that gets in trouble a lot so they’re always getting calls from her school and having to pick her up early. Rip to Reiners hrs.
Gabi actually hates Bertolt, like unreasonably so, but that’s just her being a kid. Reiner keeps close contact with Colt after meeting him when they setup a play date with Falco. Gabi and Falco are an Introvert & Extrovert friendship dynamic. They may or may not have ADHD but Reiner and Colt aren’t psychiatrists nor can they diagnose them but they have their suspicions. She’s def a brain rot kid and Falco just goes along with it.
Karina passed away from some illness a yr before Gabi’s parents died in an accident. Reiner was her only living relative left and he was freshly an adult, so he was the one they contacted after digging for info. He was struggling heavy atm and he didn’t take custody right away, but after weighing his options he figured she’d be better off with him than in the foster care system. They were living in a trashy place at first until him and Bert planned to move in together to save money. Reiner sort of doesn’t rly care about his job position, just the stability that comes with it. He has depression but masks it pretty well. Bert knows and tries his best to make sure he stays on his meds but he can’t rly force him to do anything either. They tried being a thing for a hot min but it didn’t work out so they stayed as friends.
Bertolt actually takes good care of Gabi when it’s his turn/has to but Gabi is too stubborn to appreciate it or even notice. He does sometimes get fed up with her attitude tho and a lot of people have mistaken them as siblings lmao. The only thing he can’t stand is how she idolizes Eren but he can’t rly blame either of them for that either so he just deals with it.
Bert is a part time college student. Reiner is pulling through community college to get credits cheaper before transferring to Uni but it’s exceptionally hard when he has to care and provide for Gabi while also being understaffed at work💔
Armin is a full time college student and lives on campus. His uncle financially supports him but sometimes he’ll feel bad/or bored and picks up an odd job or temp job every once in a while to cover some costs or make his own spending money. Connie can never keep a job but that’s ok bc he’s the plug for odd jobs, he just has so much charisma he lands odd jobs without having to try too hard and with little expectations. He hooked up Armin with one but failed to tell him the nature of the job (the most important part guys😭) hence him being pissed here. Dw tho bc Connie is inside wearing a wig too. He doesn’t care much about what he has to do but tends to forget or not realize that everyone else has their limits compared to his nonchalance. He’s a jack of all trades if you will.
Mikasa is an heiress, or more accurately, inheriting the family fortune. Her, Zeke, and Eren all have their fair share of it but Mikasa is specifically taking over the hospital as its owner and has been working on getting a better grasp on its inner workings. Zeke is directly in the hospital’s hierarchy and is the Chief. Things are a bit rocky with Eren, hence him being homeless. He developed a mental illness during their graduation year and has been deteriorating ever since. He’ll sometimes go missing or instigate arguments with Mikasa and Zeke. They try to keep an eye on him but they can only do so much when he knows how to drive and disappears to go on a bender. It’s also a pretty rare condition that has had little success with developing treatments for it.
Mikasa hits him with her car at some point.
He crashes at Jean’s place for a bit at some point as well.
Jean lives in his car, by choice.
Ain’t nothing rly wrong with his living situation, he just got into an argument with his mom and is too stubborn to back down or admit his shortcomings. He’s been saving up to buy a PS5 btw. Marco is the only one he keeps frequent contact with.
*not mentioned here but will be at some point when I actually get to drawing more of the AU, Eren is Reiner’s toxic unstable ex that Gabi imprinted on because of his spontaneity and nonchalant attitude when they were still dating*
Other details:
Marco attends Uni
Annie works the bar at a high end restaurant
Mikasa an Zeke sometimes have to resort to hiring someone to lure in Eren with weed
Armin and Bertolt hookup at some point
Miché is Armin’s uncle
Levi and Mikasa are cousins with compatible blood types. They found out they were related in Mikasa’s sophomore yr when she had a medical emergency. He lived halfway across the country but now lives an hr away ever since.
Mikasa is adopted
Eren is pretty intelligent but it doesn’t rly show through and he never tried that much during high school because of Grisha’s high expectations. He can grasp new concepts pretty well and will sometimes help Armin on something if he happens to be around. He helps Marco with assignments at some point.
Jean has a cat?
Jean’s father is a deadbeat and he’s never met him, nor knows he’s even alive, but Dw bc his mom made sure to marry and divorce him, she is not dying without cashing in that insurance.
Erwin is a professor somewhere
Eruri?
Miché and Erwin are bitter exes
Karla worked a desk job for an insurance company before becoming a full time mom
Zeke lived with his grandparents until Grisha remarried
Finally finished one of the TG arts I’ve been leaving in drafts for months🙏🏽🗣️🗣️🗣️this took forever bc I had been trying to learn a paint render style at the time, even though it’s not the best here lmao, and then I kept getting busy and then I didn’t remember in which order I put and layered any of the colors so that’s why it’s been unfinished for so long……
I honestly didn’t do much from what I left off at, I rendered most of their faces early on before I abandoned it for some time. Rize’s was the hardest to get the colors down when I first started out, very much trial and error. I managed to do most of Kaneki within the same week that I started this last yr, but then I couldn’t get his eyes right at all. Then when I revisited it I didn’t like the angle his head was at and noticed his colors were a bit muddy so I had to touch it up a bit and hope it would do something😭😫
It was mostly hard but I remember the hair being the only thing I enjoyed about this one, idk what timing I was on but I rly went in with the shaping and colors for it. The red highlights was a bit much but it looks plain without it🥀I unexpectedly picked a rly nice pink for the highlights on their faces and they actually came out nice what lmao.
Other than that I had a creepy vibe planned for this when I first started it but then it evolved into Ken being a bit soft looking in his stare and Rize looks somewhat sad instead of the initial angered concentration I was going for.
I think I did good with the composition on this one in how I managed to take up most of the canvas space💖
Just something something slight berumin from that one supernatural au I keep mentioning but never actually drawing for🥀
I’ve been so deprived of drawing during my vacay days. Like literally have zero space or privacy to continue what’s in my drafts since I’ve been around my family haha💔I made this in like who knows 10 min. I just want to at least end my holiday break with something before I have to go back to working my jank ass job tmr. I fr have to get back on my grind
Don’t rly have anything completed atm so I decided to clean out my drafts for the new yr, but rly bc I needed to update LADS😔🥀jkjklmao, anyways.
Stuff I never got around to and decided it’s better left deleting bc I don’t like seeing my drawing app dash crowded bc it overwhelms me. Most of these are super random though. The compositions kinda suck so even if I did more with them there would be too much going on😭
Does this count as self/yume ship?? I was thinking about her at work today and didn’t rly have anything else to draw other than stuff that’s been sitting in my drafts, which I’m still avoiding lmao(I only worked on one and then did this💔) I lowkey didn’t like Eve early on, still trying to come around to her BUT HER DIMENSION TRAVELING VERS?!?!??👁️👁️😫
Guys, I liked the concept of the other Marks ig, mainly bc our main one is such a bitch😭🙏🏽like sry i rly tried to like him but why does he keep floppinggggg. But when they introduced the OTHER EVES?!?! Talk about I was then shot 37 times like damn, she can’t catch a break💀😔. I still don’t like the fact that her and mark are the main ship but it’s whatever ig, the only thing I find interesting about them as a couple is their comic counterparts and even then I haven’t even read anything, just seen shots of it.
Enough of me slandering them tho I literally could not stop thinking about dimension hopping eve ever since I finished the series. Something about the angst and her neglected hamster eyes sold it for me😫🎀MOVE OVER MARK I COULD TREAT HER BETTER🗣️🗣️🗣️.
I also literally thought Rudy was Rex when I first watched that episiode, I was like DAMN WHAT HAPPENED TO MY BOY, and then thought about it the week after and realized that was in fact not him. I’m so slow yall.
But yeah. Idk. I haven’t tried looking for fics of her yet but there better be some or I will be starving living off of scenarios of her.
Considering doing a poll or something just to gauge what yall wanna see me draw, bc I literally forget ppl follow me and I feel like I'm starving yall lmao. Like, idk it's a mystery to me why any of yall are following me tbh bc I just draw what I want and half my stuff doesnt make any sense😭😂💔but I'm more curious to know what exactly prompted yall to stick around.
I wanna at least do more frequent doodles or work on stuff that some of yall are actually interested in seeing. Bc ik my aus can be alot and confusing most of the time. Idk but if yall see this pls comment or something idk lmao. I might just do soemthing for yall since I haven't been working on shit🥀🎀
