Description
Okay - so, I've been getting a lot of peeps asking me what Recall's face looks like under the mask.While he's a character that actually prefers to keep his battle mask on 24/7 - unlike characters like Soundwave, he most definitely has faceplates that you DO get to see - just NOT VERY OFTEN.
Recall is VERY self-conscious about his appearance - and hates to be reminded of that event in his life. Not only that, but he's made painfully aware how different he is by his facial appearance when other bots stare.
Thus, it is because of these obscurities (severe metal burns and contusions on his plating) that he chooses to live a life of solitude, and keeps his mask on 90% of the time. (The burns and contusions came from a severe accident he was involved in in his youth).READ HIS BIO HERE FOR MORE INFO ON THAT EVENT Recall - Transformers Prime OC Reference
And before anyone asks - yes, Genji from Overwatch was a HUGE inspiration for this character as far as some design specs. But in a side by side comparison you will notice that the designs do have some significant differences and alterations. But...I wanted to pay homage to the character that I truly admire and represent him in the form of an Original Character from a different franchise. I consider this a nod of appreciation and admiration to the lovely folks who created the characters of Overwatch - and a TF based promotion for a really awesome game. <3 DON'T TRACE, REUPLOAD, USE IN RP AND/OR MODIFY MY ARTWORKS IN ANY WAY

AWESOME!

While his mask was in many ways inspired by Genji - in a side to side comparison there are obvious differences. ^^
But I can see how you'd make the connection. XD
Still though - I thank you for your kind words! ^^

He still looks awesome asdfghjkl
I really like his optics for some reason and his expression really suits him. The marks on his face are really interesting too. I wonder what happened to cause that. :0
And the fact that you pulled inspiration from Genji is just great. <3 I don't play Overwatch but I watch the shorts and I love him.

I know, right?!
All in all I think it's the optics that really make him~ X3 And he's snarky and sarcastic by nature - so it suits his character well~ X'D
Recall, why must you be so self-conscious over something that really doesn't look THAT bad??
No worries though - all will be revealed in time~ X3
And honestly - I'm right there with you in never having played Overwatch.

Recall, someone as handsome as you needn't hide his face. >n<
Some Halloween he could walk up to someone and ask, "Do you wanna know how I got these scars?" X''D
Cyber-ninjas are the best. eue

I totally agree~ >3<
And that's definitely a thought~ XD

Lol~ Yeah...Recall here was inspired by Genji. That much is true~
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
hes absolutely handsome!
also his mask looks remarkably similar to Genji ;; just saying!
still very handsome!!
👍: 1 ⏩: 1
Lol, thank you~ ^^
And that's good considering Genji was in many ways the inspiration for him~ X3
Grant it, in a side by side comparison they are very different - but it's amazing to see how many people have caught that~ xD

Well I think he looks VERY handsome *pats his helm, flees before I'm destroyed*

Mr. Mysterious has a nice face. The green optics looks toxic as heck. ;D
The battle scar thing is a cool idea. It would make a great spin-off story for your comic.

He does~ doesn't he~ X3
But he doesn't believe anyone when they say that - he's developed this idea that those who say 'it doesn't look that bad' want something from him or have some kind of ulterior motive. He's very suspicious of kindness.
And that's EXACTLY the kind of reaction I was going for with the optics! 'Toxic' is the perfect word! Because ultimately, ever since his accident he has become some what - 'Toxic'.
And fear not my friend - you WILL be seeing some of this guy in "Lost & Found" make no mistake of that - and believe it or not - I'm planning on his appearance to be a prelude of another story that I will be writing AFTER "Lost & Found" is done. I even have a name for the story picked out already.
Coming soon - a short story about Recall - "Into the Void"

Sounds like Luna
but she doesn't hae a battle mask.
Butr if she's insane and you look at ehr face for to long,
Oh boi, it's like the movie, 'the purge' all over again. :'>
aka
It'd would be really bloody/energony.
Meh.

Oh boy -
I don't know that Recall would do that...well...maybe...then again... >.>
You know what - no. He wouldn't do that. Not unless he was hired to offline that being. Otherwise he'd just kick their aft. After all - you'd be surprised what you can live through.

Luna can't die though.... My younger self never removed that fact, I only kept it because it's fun to think of ways to kill her and then have her come back to life and suffer from her wounds, Luna's like a walking corpse. She deserves it because she never listened to how bad unicron was, stupid gal thought it would be cool to take a 'gift' from him, ended up cursing her, this is why you don't take things from strangers, Luna. I like to see her suffer though, Idk why, probably because I made her to hold in my anger and sorrow, then again, she's mostly an emotionless corpse walking around, I call her a walking corpse because she's already dead. Only way to truly kill her is by shattering her amulet (Which, is extremely hard to do because she guards the thing 24/7, which is on her neck, which is the main source of why she can't die.) Also, for being a con, she cares about the autobots to much, and forces herself to live to make sure they stay safe, don't know why, but she makes a better psychotic murderer than a friend.
Her amulet:

I like to make my ocs suffer for some reason.

What a cutie! I love his battle mask, and it's nifty seeing a character with battle damage. I don't see that very often with OCs. c:
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you. ^^ His mask was inspired by Genji from Overwatch. X3
And you're absolutely right! You really don't see too many characters with battle damage here on deviantART.
Maybe that's why it seemed like such a neat idea. >u<

I was wondering if there was some inspiration from Genji, I don't play the games but I know of the character. c:
It's always a fun little quirk to add, one of my own characters has some scars. I love how you made your character's damage look like part of his face place is both shattered and corroded. It makes me curious about the character and his backstory for sure!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Lol~ I'll be totally honest with you - I really don't play the games either~ XD
However, my sister does. And Every time she plays, Genji always struck me as being this unique character. I don't know why - but I guess some of his characteristics stuck while I was creating this character. ^^
And I totally agree! ^_^ Maybe it's just me - but it kind of feels like by adding those little quirks, that it makes your character stand out more from the others. Makes them unique in their own way. x3 And thank you! Believe it or not - I'm actually thinking about writing a fanfiction about this character to hopefully shed a little more light on him! Unfortunately though - that story won't happen until after my comic about my two other OCs is done.
