Comic later - I need to reshoot a panel and my batteries died. :P

So, light. A prompt that is usually a reason to try to come up with something meaningful and inspiring.

Have a scruffy scorpocobra cowboy sunning himself on a rock. I'd warn you away from taking that hand, but, hey, at least Quickstrike doesn't smell bad.

Other Vengeance, TFs-as-humans, yeah, yeah, me and backlighting.

Cool stuff. Inspiring indeed. I need to get some new Energon Cube, I mean batteries for my camera as well. What a coincidence!

I love the lighting. I really like his design. You must too, since you seem to draw him often. =D

I'm not a "slasher" but even I got to say Quickstrike looks pretty good right there.

Now it you'll excuse me, I need to go look at your Override/Thunderblast pic to "fix" my eyes.
:iconazure-ocelot:
His outstretched hand looks fine to me. Better than any hand I can draw. God, I hate hands. (As art subjects, obviously. I'm very grateful for my own pair, even when they don't do what I like.)

He may've gone straight to human, but he's sure got the instincts of a snake. Of course, I'm guessing even he bolts for the shade during the middle of the day. It's Uganda.

Aside from that, all I can think to do is squee, so I'm going to squee for a bit.

See, this is why, back when you were doing OV 1.0 and I was toying with the idea of the Beast Warriors as a classical pantheon (before finding out Dinobot was thinking of fairies, instead), Quickstrike ended up being a sun god.

The shadows on his skin are a little strong and I think his knees are a little uneven, though that's hard to tell. Mostly? Dang that is one inviting pose.
:iconwaywardinsecticon:
I'd tried with lighter, more realistic shadows and they just didn't please my aesthetics as much as the darker ones did. ( When it comes to fanservice, Art trumps Science. ;) ) I think the left knee's fine. Right might have problems - his thigh was too long and I had to pull it back a bit during the drawing stage.

Maybe not a sun god, but certainly a sun worshipper. ;)

Fair enough on the lighting-- just makes it look like it's really early in the morning and already shaping up to be a scorcher or something. Strong light with a strong slant.

Yeah, the right leg is what looks off to me, too-- probably should've phrased it that way rather than just pointing out they don't match. *grins* The left leg actually looks very good, but the right lower leg... seems too short, and also at a weird angle (possibly due to shortness). Right thigh matches the left thigh okay.

Being twin brothers, at least in the way one would set up a pantheon, Quickstrike as the god of the sun and Silverbolt as the god of the moon worked out nicely. ... Although it was a pantheon SERIOUSLY heavy on gods of war. (Terrorsaur got to be a god of Art and Beauty, though.)
