Description
Ta-da! The third installment in the ever-growing pile of hologram junk I keep throwing out into the world! This time with the femmes! xDTop Left: Arcee~ Inspiration: Biker chick. I had the toughest time drawing her expression! She was supposed to be sexy, but she turned out a little tomboyish!
Top, Middle: Moonracer~ Inspiration: a cutie pie^^ I wanted Moonracer to reflect the cute innocence I saw her with, and I think I captured it in the little headshot I have of her. I love her hair!
Top, Right: Chromia~ Inspiration: a seasoned female fighter, possibly gladiatorial. The claw marks on her face are supposed to signify all the battles she's been in throughout her long life.
Middle, Left: Elita One~ Inspiration: None. She somehow slipped from my fingertips. At first, she looked really grandmotherly, but that bothered me, so now she's just really nice looking. An understanding Commander to her troops.
Middle, Middle: Firestar~ Inspiration: Harajuku girl. Don't ask me why. Firestar was depicted as a little wild in my fic, so I wanted her look to reflect that- sexy and wild. She's a little tame looking for a real Harajuku girl, but she gets the "Good Time" message across.
Bottom, Left: Virus~ Inspiration: wild animals and vampires. A prominent OC of mine, she's has a love for the grotesque and rotten. She's a little twisted in the processor, really unpredictable, so I wanted the raw power and threat of her to come out in her hologram.
Bottom, Middle: Nightshade~ Inspiration: No idea. She's an OC that belongs to a friend of mine, Violetlight. I'm using her character in my fic and I thought that since I'm drawing holos for all my femmes, I might as well include her too!^^
Bottom, Right: Flamewar~ Inspiration: Female Gladiator. The scars on her face are a testament to the battles she's fought in the past. Being the Decepticon Femme Commander, she's vicious and powerful, and absolutely ruthless in battle.
Mini TFs that make an appearance: Ironhide and his "little friend", Bumblebee with a little "BB+RC=4EVA" sign, Optimus Prime loving his sparkmate, Barricade doing a pelvic thrust to his mate, screaming "Yeah Baby!", and Soundwave with Ravage... they're just standing there.
Odd quality of pic is due to camera... scanner is down for the count.

I love the mini TFs! 
I don't know if you meant to do this, but I've noticed that the scar marks on Chromia's and Flamewar's faces are on the opposite cheeks of each other. Coincidence? O-o
Haha, so Elita just flowed from your imagination through your fingers to the paper? It must be her artistic side that helped you put her down on paper. 
If you ask me, Firestar looks like she knows something that she knows we want to know, but she won't tell us whatever it is. lol~
Arcee may look tomboyish, but she looks sexy at the same time, so I think you've got her down well.

this is awesome, you made them so pretty! Firestar reminds me of that chick from Head over Heals, she was awesome XD and Arcee sorta reminds me of Atlanta from Class of the Titans or whatever it's called ahaha sorry, just had to put that out there CX good job!

Goodness, thanks so much~ I've never seen Head over Heels and it's been quite a while since I've watched Class of the Titans but I'll take your words for it. ^_^ Glad you like the pic.

Alright...finally got to it. Amazing job with the femmes. I must say that Firestar's hair looks absolutely fabulous. You pulled Chromia very well, as she looks very fighterish and I would not want to mess with her. Moonracer looks so cute and bubbly, while Arcee pulls off biker chick. I think you did a fine job of making her look sexy in her own way. I think Nightshade looks very cool. She's looks how I saw her in the story, young but strong and determined and not willing to take any scrap. Viris is juct crazy looking, but in the good crazy you were going for. I like her hair. XD And Flamewar is just badass looking. From her eyes you can tell she is someone you do not want to piss off. Elita looks great, very kind and understanding...just like her mate. And the chibis...they are adorable. They make me want to smile....even when I'm not looking at them. lol. Ironhide...he's so amazing. XD

Oh wow! You finally got around to taking a peek at my femme holograms! Yay! I was so excited o see that you commented! 
I have to admit, I really just threw Firestar and Moonracer into the mix because the paper looked way too bare without them. I'm glad you like the way they turned out. I actually wanted to do a little pic of Firestar in full harajuku costume to test out my new pencil crayons, but we'll see where the future takes us. 
Violetlight will be happy to hear that you enjoy her character in my fics. I do my best to uphold the integrity of the character's name, so hearing your opinion of her really makes my day! As well, hearing that I captured Virus in a crazy, but good crazy, sort of way is the best! I love her hair too! It's so wild and everywhere!
Flamewar is the one who captured my interest the most, as you can see with her being the biggest out of all the holograms. I love her expression in the pic; she's such a powerful, no-holds-barred character. I was afraid I wasn't going to be able to convey her poperly, but if you see a woman wh's best not to piss off, then I've done my job.
Chromia, I'm sad to say, is not my favourite femme of the bunch. I love writing for her, since she'd one of the most kickass femmes in the universe, but her hologram simply didn't want to work for me. -_- I say it's the eyes. Next time I try to draw her, I'm fixing her eyes. Elita One, on the other hand, really does look very kind and understandng doesn't she? She's so much like her sparkmate it hurts sometimes. All the love to her and Optimus.
The chibies were fun to draw. I'm glad you got a kick out of them.

Yea...I know and I'm sorry for taking so long. I hope I didn't make you explode from so much excitement.
Well I am certainly glad your threw them on there...they deserve some more love.lol I hope you do the Firestar pic...that would be pretty cool.
Nightshade is a very good character, and I believe you both have done a wonderful job in describing her. She's so interesting to read. Just from her expression, she still holds that interestingness. And yes, Virus' hair is so very wild. My hair looks like that in the morning. XDD
Trust me...you portrayed her just the way you wanted too. She's a drawing but I can't help but shudder when looking at her...again her eyes tell all.
Well, that's why it's good we can always try again. 
They must be since they seem to pop up a lot...not that I mind it. XD I want to paste them on my wall.

I have to admit, I never really thought about what Nightshade might look like as a human, because she isn't one. The Decetpicons in my fic don't really give a flying frag what their holo forms look like either; they're just a tool to them, like a duck blind. As long as it helps them blen in they're satified.
However, now that you've got me thinking about it, the Yuna-like look you've given her is quite suiting.
I'd still like to see her drawn in 'bot form ^^

I guess that's that differs between Autobots and Decepticons- the Autobots are a little more frivilous with their looks, trying to "get it right" when blending with the humans- not just half assing it, but *really* trying to get it right.
Many of the holograms, especially the ones I've created for the holograms, are just fun for me to draw^^ They'll probably never show up in the actual story.
I'm glad that you've warmed up to the "Yuna lookalike", though^^ Even if I've never played/seen Final Fantasy, I suppose it could be a compliment- the picture of Yuna you showed me was really nice^^ But, don't get your hopes up to ever see her in bot form- at least, not from me. I got no talent when it comes to drawing 'bots...

Drawing 'bots must take a lot of work; Leonard has the same kinds of trouble with them. It makes me admire Lita's drawings all the more.
You're pics are really good though. You're really lucky you can draw *and* write. My stick people scare little children.

lol Thanks! I've been drawing for years a years- it's taken a lot of practice to get as good as I am now, but I still have a long way to go

I have no idea why this suddenly came to mind, a few weeks after you posted this pic, but a Yuna-like holoform for Nightshade actually makes a lot of sense if you consider Yuna's job in Final Fantasy X.
Yuna is a Summoner - she has the ability to summon badass monsters to fight for her.
Nightshade, quite similarly, is a Symbiosis Master. She many not be as skilled as Soundwave, but still, in your stories she has Waspinator, and it mine, she also has Scorponok (after Blackout's death). I was thinking that for my planned Vapour Trails sequel, Fireworks, she also has the Insecticons working for her, not as symbiotes, per say, but as her own little secret group of spies. That, and she seems to have a thing for bugs ^^.
Anyway, I hope you'll be posting more of your sketeches soon. You're really lucky that you can write AND draw!

Ironhide! LOL!
Dude, it's a little creepy, because Elita looks like me.
Cool drawings!

haha, Thanks! Since i have no idea what you really look like, I'll just attribute Elita's likeness to you to the cosmic currents that introduced us in the first place! xD

They all look wonderful!

I cracked up when I drew Ironhide with his "little friend"- I believe he was quite happy that I gave him a super huge bazooka to blow things up with!
Thanks for all the love! You're too wonderful!

Oh yes. He looks very happy indeed. =w=~
No problem.

Goodness, this is so great! 
And other femme characters turned out so well! Firestar is very stunning and beautiful, and Elita's expression is so kind and nice. I really love your version of Virus, she is much prettier than I'd imagined... And all the chibi mechs around their femmes are just so cute and adorable! You did a wonderful job, love!

Awww, thanks! I'm really surprised that Nightshade turned out to look exactly as she did in your head! That's really awesome! I was soooo stuck on how I should portray her- I had no idea how to draw her so I let my pencil fly! Now I'm glad I did, since she at least fits one person's idea of her^^
I'm particularly of how Flamewar turned out- I wanted to lean heavily on her gladiatorial past, since she was a fighter in the Kaon rings alongside Sunstreaker, and I am so very happy that her fierce strength comes out in the pic!
I'm so glad that you like the other, like Firestar and Elita One. I had so much fun drawing Firestar- I was going all over the net looking up the right hairstyle for her! xD
You're right though- Virus looks *way* prettier than she should be, since she's a giant mechanical bear and all, but I had trouble formulating an ugly persona for her >.< She just turned out looking more like a scary vampire than an ugly monster...
Thanks for all the love!
