A couple years ago, I'd started drawing an image of the fallen TFs from TF:TM; and I never finished it. Just a little bit ago, I ran across it again in my image files and thought to try and redo it. Some of the aspects of the original, I kept, but for the most part this is something different.

I tried to play on the raw emotions for this, seeing as how everyone in the image has no more reason to hide whatever they hid before. Ironhide has given in to hysteria, Prowl is irremovably lost and thoughtless, Windcharger is devistated beyond consolation, Brawn is shocked at his inability, Huffer is totally speechless, and Ratchet has completely broken. Which leaves Wheeljack; he was purposely protrayed the way he is in the image to show that while he's taken the impact of his own death, he's still always what he was: a soul for others to share. He's never cared much for his own well-being, and always strived, at his own risk, to protect others. Personally, I always imagined that 'Jack was the net that caught Ratchet when he fell, so I concentrated 'Jack on him. A person can have many friends, but does not often have many best friends.
----

I had hoped that the lineart would have turned out less muddled and confusing, and there were quite a few things that I rushed on, or left unfinished. However, with the help of =dyemooch , who beautifully coloured the image for me shortly after it's completion, I've gained an amount of pride for this and a sense of accomplishment. Thank you, Bumbles. <3
