Alright you peeps. Here's what you can do.

Give me a character or critter, be it from a canon or fanon (this is me subtly asking you to poke some of my characters if you please, but feel free to ask for others) source, along with a small prompt and I'll sketch it. I'm also willing to listen to bits from peoples fanfiction or even a bunny farm hopper you wish to see, but I don't know how well that would work for a sketch challenge thingy. The whole thing is to help me not become hung up on my perfectionist tendencies as much, and to get over an annoying art block. You guys just get some (hopefully) nifty art as well. This is not limited to just transformers but if I don't know the fandom, sorry no luck.

Annnnd.... go!

EDIT: ATTENTION!! I'm putting this on a temporary hiatus for what will probably be a couple of days. Due to the fact that I've developed a fever and a nasty cough. (yay, sick again) Requests that are still up will be finished so no worries. And when I start this up again I'll probably just go with a new post seeing as this one has gotten quite full. :D

Oh, seasonal allergies, how I loath thee. Right now it feels like my head if full of concrete. History, National Geographic and Science channel episodes to download, the Triplets of Bellville soundtrack, a new purchase from Goodwill at half price, the 1 ft long Roboraptor, various Japanese Transformers episodes, painting some gargoyles my mom got me and a mix of fever/allergies, dammit, have kept me suitably distracted for a while now.

*blushes* Eh, I'm nothing special, just pleased I was able to help getting the characters motivated. I'm glad they decided to cooperate, it's nice to finally see the whole of all of them. I know what you mean about finally in concerns of characters, one of my original species has finally decided to solidify its appearance in my head recently. Now, I need to remember how to draw organics to at least scribble that blasted critter down. It doesn't really help that I specifically started designing them without a tail and yet they keep on insisting that yes, they do have one.

Pffffffft. Oh, man, that's epic right there. Poor, poor little rubber chicken. I can assume that Scavenger isn't going to be getting his chicken back, at least in one piece, is he? And all I can say is that I wouldn't be able to do half of the poses the Saurs are in, because I truly fail at that sort of thing. I just love how it progresses from one Saur to another, almost like one of those flip books and the changing in the sky's colors really accentuates it.

Oh, have you seen this site Dapper Cadaver? (http://www.dappercadaver.com/blog/2009/02/) I really like their Monster Monday section.

The fact that it has been snowing since yesterday is not helping. *cries* Where has all the good weather gone? Glad you like all my babbling, sometimes it just feels like word vomit to me.

*winces* My condolences, the only allergy I have is a skin one to mango oil. (I can eat them just fine though XD) Apparently a lot of people have it, as the mango is part of the sumac family. And if you've had a bad experience with poison ivy or poison oak in the past you're more likely to have a problem touching mangos. Roboraptor! That's awesome! All of that does sound like a lot of distractions, glad you're back online. You were missed.

Well then, we'll just have to disagree on the special part. And *pokes aliens* mayhaps they have tails in certain occasions, or the reverse could apply as well.

It may get a bit scuffed but they'll return it in relatively the same condition. They have quite a bit of respect for the ones that created them... I really need to starting writing their story out, or something.

A long time ago I think, *saves to bookmarks this time* And yay, 'monsters'.

The ice is finally melting off the lake I'm at all the time. Went canoeing on it the other day, paddled around ice sheets and marking the season as now spring where I'm concerned.

Well, it's evolved into a dizzy headache/fever thing, that will not go away (that's why it's been taking me so long to respond). I'm hopping if I stay under the blankets long enough, I'll sweat it out. It IS starting to lessen a bit, though. Oh Primus, poison ivy *shudders* I had a really bad encounter (http://heslestor.livejournal.com/8858.html) with it once and now I have a slightly irrational hatred of the plant. Strangely, I have no problems with mangos which may be odd since I juice them a lot, which is weird considering my past experience with poison ivy.

I'm tempted to have the ones with tails be cousins of the ones without, since they have shown me that they're very proficient tree-climbers (they also seem to be a lot smaller, too) and the ones with no tails live far underground, in the middle of a desert. ...Which means I have a lot of rewriting to do now.

You know, have you ever thought what would happen should the programming that made the Constructicons Decepticons came undone? Especially if it was during the early days of the war. (Because in my mind, reprogramming or not, in the later stages of the war, the Structies are quite firmly in the camp of the 'Cons, with the occasional Neutral tendencies.)

I haven't been canoeing in years, but it was a memorable occasion. Haven't been camping for a while now, even, must rectify this immediately. Now, I must convince my parents it's a good idea to go back to Rifle River, like, right now, so we can go canoeing again.

Oh look at that HTML fail.

Oh yuck! Get better soon, maybe with warm weather finally on the way all these germs will back off. Actually I read somewhere that those with a lot of past exposure to mangos tend to have a lesser reaction to poison ivy/oak. *shrug*

Ummm.... sorry? But they sound interesting.

There's been a bunny or two someone's posted concerning that very thing. I haven't really gone in depth with the idea much as I'm still trying to find just what it is that makes the difference between Autobot and Decepticon. And none of that good vs evil categorization, since I have a hard time accepting THAT in our own society. Not to mention what you see of them on both sides, tend to be the higher ranking military individuals who are fully immersed in the war. A bit silly yes, but when there's an inability to swallow the good vs evil plot it makes the whole definition between the two a bit harder to grasp.

It was fun, but not nearly as much as past years. When instead of s l o w l y melting like it did this year, becoming a sheet of slush/thin ice and open at the edges, it splits down the middle. Canoeing between inch/half inch-thick ice sheets is a wholly different experience than any other you could have on a river or lake. I have to be ready for that split though, it doesn't last no more than a day or so before it gets too wide for the effect to occur.
