Description
After living with the Autobots for a while, half Pint was transferred to a nuetral orphanage where she would be safe.Too bad orphanages don't get much attention during a civil war and Nuns don't appreciate a wild, disrespectful little Con. Half Pint's been working with the other children in an energon refinery and then getting stuck with dish duty before going to recharge for her rowdy behavior.
Basically, I just wanted to draw HP doing the same Kitchen work I was doing 4 weeks straight this summer. Scraping those darn pans takes FOREVER. At least for her a pan means they had enough energon to make goodies tonight. BIG TREAT!
I nixed doing a background in favor inking digitally *is lazy*

Lol. The many many faces of Half Pint: the angry-scrubbing face, the angry tantrum face, the angry insulted face, the angry 'I'm just pissed today' face, and the angrily angry face. Such range of depth and emotion...or am I sensing a pattern here?

Disappointing work is disappointing. Half Pint has to plan and sneak her way out of that Orphanage. c:
I like the background. The brown gradient makes it look like there's a floor while the gray gradient appears to be a wall. Clever. C:
I like cleaning dishes only because I like the feel of the water and soap in my hands. xD

You got what I was going for in the background! Me and my lazyness are understood! YAY!!
I don't mind doing dishes at home so much any more becuase I only have to clean up after 4 people instead of 160+

Yay for me and you then!
I like it cause I like to think about things while doing the dishes

Thank you! As for Half Pint, the whole orphanage thing had to happen sometime.

some unintentional wonky angles,scale mishaps...
the Idea,the old fashioned sense of a naughty child,in a neutral base,scraping caked remains off pans,good work.
yet,I find it hard to believe,it's giving off a county orphanage air,yet I think they would be able to scrape together at least less humanoid surroundings,like the chair.
I like it,and I like this turns of dramatic events ravishingly.

To be honest, I didn't spend as much time on this as I should have. I worked backwards on all my 'While HP was away' stuff so this pic was holding me up from posting a bunch of stuff.
I thought a bit about the chair... the scene actually came from my time in the kitchen at the camp I just finished working at. I ended up just deciding to leave the stool in even though I doubted giant robots would really have one. I wasn't sure what to draw instead... any suggestions?
Thansk! I'm glad you like it!

drawing what comes to mind is always good practice,I won't have any say against that.
If she was set to do a laborious task in a nun-operated orphanage,I would have her do a practical,long,and aggravating job,such as cleaning a eating refinery ans storage room.
If she was just a bit older,cleaning energon disposal units is a dangerous job,as they(in my opinion as this being a more low tech setting)run unprocessed energon though it,as budgets may be short,to make the job easier.
*pulls hat brim over eyes*
A young child climbing into an old energon processor,with dangers of harsh chemicals, is cruel standards.
Even for repeted battles with other children,and acting 'un-femme like'.

An orphanage? *Snickering at the probably unintentional irony*

Half Pint needed to be part of an orphanage at some point. Her character screamed for it. XD

About half of the people in the guard, actually. XP

*fist pumps air* FACT!
I wish I had some way to animate a dance sequence for the guard to that song. It would be EPIC!

Everyone would be dancing around, singing lyrics changed to fit a Cybertronian's life. It would be epic indeed. XD
