Somebody shoot me. I've got other people's fancharas hijacking my brain.

heslestor's questionable Autobot, Hotzone. A Toxicologist and Pathologist whose ethics don't quite match up to the Autobot ideal, and if you kill him it's very likely that all the chemicals he's carrying around would make the surrounding area for miles a dead zone. Recent conversation had him cooing over a parasite of his own creation, and this image promptly burned itself into my brain along with the name Talin for the parasite. Which, like other made up words that hit me, turned out to be not-so-made-up. In this case, there's two. *exasperated*

Before, I'd offered to draw Hotzone because I like him so much and actually had a different one in progress. But nooooo, the pathologist wanted his parasite-in-a-vial. *sulk* It's really not fair when I'm struggling to get my own characters down and visualized. But hey, I'm glad it's one I could finish, there's not been many of those lately. And I hope you like this Heslestor, he was fun to design.

And if anyone knows where I can find some good tips on doing metal that's colored, I'd be very grateful.
