Slowly But Surely Coming Out Of Artblock 🥳🥳🥳

Galvy WIP

I only have the energy for sketches ;-;

uhhh super rough elite trine sketch

idk he’s just got back from torturing some poor sod

I kind of combined his FoC and G1 designs <3

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

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 :'))

sasori

quick preceptor sketch.. assignments won’t let me draw like I want ;-;

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 😁👍👍👍👍👍👍😍

Not mad at all.. 😎

felt like redrawing this scene

IT IS DONE
