These two have an interesting relationship to say the least, but I like it! I like it a lot. I hope Prowl won't be on his sabbatical for too long, unless of course there's more story for him and the rest of the crew on Luna 1!

the only critique aboy the IDW arcee, is that she never try to stay close to Bumblebee, is not because I wanted, just cause I always think she would find somebody who really can please her, and make her feel happy sometimes, and make her surpass her painful past, by Jhiaxus!!

Arcee did find where she belongs to; with the Autobots.

When observing her character, it might be that she doesn't want anyone "to please her" or "make her happy", but instead she'd want someone who'd accept her as who she is now despite what has happened in the past. Many are friends with Arcee, especially Sideswipe who she tried to save, but none of them I'd see more than that.Β 

(I'm probably biased also in that case because I don't see the need of having all female characters be paired with someone)

so you agree with me in this case too you know?, I don't care if she stay with sideswipe butyou know, I think that Bumblebee do better becoming somebody who can accept her.

pika In reply to davidshadow275 [2018-07-10 18:37:26 +0000 UTC]

You want Arcee and Bumblebee to become a couple, and you think Arcee and Sideswipe have something going on? In that case I don't agree with you like I said previously; I don't see them more than just friends. Arcee sure likes to keep her friends around her, like, who does not!?! But with war and all the chaos with the alliances with Earth and other colonies sure has kept everyone busy. Keeping friends safe is an immense task under such conditions.

That's why I see Arcee and Prowl's relationship interesting. It's not like they have a romance going on, but more like Arcee has no one else to give crazy missions where she can whack Decepticons to get out her frustration. And Prowl is using that to its full extend. So basically both are benefiting from it.Β

There's nothing to apologize. We're just having a conversation here about how we see things. That's all. Β

Ah, I see. I don't draw pictures based on how well their designs go together. It's more about interactions between characters. But in this case for example it's a commission, so someone else wanted them like this.

Read the Optimus Prime comics

Do you take commissions request or art trade by any chance

pika In reply to TieriaPrime [2018-04-29 16:35:35 +0000 UTC]

I do read the Optimus Prime comic, I just haven't caught up to the latest few, yet. So I'm not really sure what your point here is other than Optimus and Arcee's designs go well together.

My commissions are currently closed, but I am planning on opening them soonish. I do art trades mainly with people I know well. Β

If you truly want to draw for me, go ahead and dig yourself deeper into this place:Β pika.deviantart.com/gallery/60… There you can find my goofs.

I actually have them bought as paper prints, but I just haven't had the energy to read. I really should catch up to the latest. I've heard there's a lot going on.

I'm not late with commenting stuff ... no no...

However I've always admired your way to combine pencil lines to digital coloring mine always ends up looking somewhat odd
but your work is always soo smooooth

I know! I'm not late with replying to replies! Oldest being from January, whee!

Hmmmm. *stares at you intensely* Your lines are beauuuuutiful, hon, what I think is the question here is that you haven't gotten used to seeing your pencil lines colored digitally! I've done that since I got into digital arting which is 10+ years ago~ But that's just my guess! And, uhm, thanks!

I actually went and FOUND a few from your gallery! W00t! And they don't look bad at all. ^-^/ The only difference I can notice between your digital lines versus pencil lines colored is the sharpness of the lines themselves. ;3 Like this pencil lineart of mine is not a sketch and it's covering the whole A4 with the purpose of being colored digitally so I tried to make the lines as crispy as possible.

CuriousCucumber In reply to pika [2017-04-18 08:23:48 +0000 UTC]

Well of course there are few XD
mostly they are random sketches that then turned out better than expected and ended up being colored

pika In reply to CuriousCucumber [2017-04-18 10:46:46 +0000 UTC]

Maybe you should try make clean lineart with pencil and color digitally instead of just coloring sketches? Dooo iiiiiit!

I love these two! My fave ship and their dynamic is by far one of the most interesting I've had the pleasure
of reading since the start of the IDW comics.Β

pika In reply to dozusumbrella [2017-01-16 18:56:42 +0000 UTC]

I adore these two! How these two interacts with each other in every encounter is quite interesting. Two people who don't have that many friends, or are loners, how ever you want to describe it, and when they have something to do with each other it's visible that they have something going on, but it's very hard to put into words.

Thanks you!!

dozusumbrella In reply to pika [2017-01-18 04:30:39 +0000 UTC]

Yep. It's safe to say that Prowl & Arcee's relationship is just so fascinating and in a
way seems very genuine. I really hope these two see each other again soon, it's been
strange reading the comics and seeing them apart after a vast majority of the story had
them working together for so long. Here is me hoping for more interactions with two
of my faves .

No prob, also they really do look great

The comics currently have like, majority of the characters spread out and I find it a bit sad. :< As in if I want to read more I'd need to buy like, ehm, 3-4 different comics? It's unfair, yet it's only a method to sell more. =.= CURSES!

Maybe one beautiful day we'll see Prowl and Arcee working together again like the 'old days' but with new settings and new story and everything. (I still fail that I haven't read Sins of the Wreckers...)

dozusumbrella In reply to pika [2017-05-01 11:46:54 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, the amount of comics you'd have to buy just to see your fave
characters in action is pretty crazy right now...So many titles andΒ 
storylines.

I think Prowl and Arcee will work together again soon. Maybe they'll have
another big event comic so we can have all the characters in one place in
a giant epic battle! (Sins of the Wreckers was pretty ok, I think the events
of the comic will be brought up again at some point in the current story, but
their not really doing anything with what happened in SOTW with what's currently
happening in comics...i dunno, i don't think it'll be very important later on.)

Also, sorry for the really late reply, i rarely use DA now a days.Β Β

pika In reply to dozusumbrella [2017-05-15 08:35:07 +0000 UTC]

It's okay with the late reply. It happens to all of us.

Maybe we'll see it one day. But currently after all that Prowl has gone through, I think he'd be having his leave for a little longer, hahah; Arcee's having all the mess in her hands instead, especially with what all is happening in Optimus Prime comic. x'D

Ps. You can just keep writing directly into the writing area, since DA will 'fit it into shape' after you post it and how it'll show up in my message center. Instead of you clicking enter yourself. Then it just looks funny, here: DA commenting example hehe

Great work on both of them! I honestly prefer classic Arcee's look over the TFP version, no offense to that character, I just like her better as a futuristic alien sports car bot over a motorcycle (plus being taller than Bumblebee lol), & while pink isn't my favorite color, it does make her stand out from the rest. I associate blue more with Chromia lol.Β
