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

Repo!Ratchet

[ink-in-hand.livejournal.com]

Well not all of Macabre, a lot of it is annoying screamo.

Repo was simply amazing, thanks for telling me about it. Ratchet was being stubborn about forming until I saw that scene. And please ignore the fact that I messed up his feet.

*squirms in glee* I'm glad you liked it so much. I have an odd obsessive love for science (especially in the medical department) gone wrong scenarios/used wrong or just plain messed up, distopias/just plain messed up futures and the like.

His expression is wonderful as are the Energon splatters (I have no idea why I'm so fond of energon splattered characters, I just am), and now I wanna write Repo!Ratchet more than ever now. Too bad I'm getting zero ideas for it (though it is trying to combine with my Evil!Ratchet bunny, so something's bound to come from it). I'm also wondering what would happen if Ratchet and Sunstreaker were to ever team up and become organ Repo men. Have you seen the merchandise (http://www.cafepress.com/RepoOpera) for Repo (http://www.repo-opera.com/) yet? Halfway tempted to get some of the shirts just on the off chance of scaring some neighbor kids. Screw joining the army, I'm becoming an organ repo man.

For future projects I challenge ya to try and do Vector Prime in all his intricate clockwork glory in Movie verse style or a group shot of Steelbeat in full dance regalia and Aztec!Sauricons having a 'friendly' little dance competition at a pow wow. Have you done anymore work on other Cybertronian wildlife? The alloygators have recently caught my eye since apparently using Circuit-Su to disassemble one in a single strike is a huge feat. I wonder if they live in the Rust Sea and if so, what their camouflage would look like...
I am also keeping a list of ideas so I can randomly spam you with them.

Oh! Have you ever heard of the Darkman (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darkman") movies? I think you may like them, they are some of my favorites.

Repo both made me laugh and cry, a major feat alone on either account much less together. Those kinds (distopias) of movies scare me far more than any horror movie I've ever seen. I still haven't worked up the courage to read 1985 after seeing parts of the film. But I love the plots revolving around where everything is just screwed up and there isn't really a definite villain because they're screwed up as well. And then I just really like mindfuck movies straight out, but those tend to have to be written well to be effective.

Peeling off the armor, sorting through the wire. Laser cores and processors, parts repossession is a job of which I'll never tire. *cough* Forgoing my mediocre attempt at lyrics, I think I should be bothered that life fluid spatters come naturally when I draw. *grins* I'm glad you like it so much, though I'm sorry you didn't get into the prompts until later. And oooh I haven't seen the merchandise yet. Isn't a consumer whore. Really. But that one logo shirt looks nice. Now I'm tempted to be a repo man for Halloween. *snerk* Rotti wants YOU to be a Repo!man. Where do I sign up?

Eheheheh... movieverse Vector Prime... oh primus. No I haven't worked on the wildlife all that much recently, too much real life drama and trying to finish pictures I've committed myself to finishing. But... check out my new post.
*feels all kinds of special because of your list*

*this is getting slightly old* No I haven't. Reading the wiki page has me interested though, I'll see what I can do to watch them.

That's one of the reasons why I want to get the Silent Hills games, because they're suppose to be all about the psychological horror instead of solely relying on gore to scare people. Then there's a book I read a few years ago, and I can't remember the title to save my life, but it's about a future that is completely controlled by the government. More so than in most other stories like that. You don't realize quite how wrong everything is, until the main character keeps on seeing something wrong with an apple that he and his friend are tossing to each other. Its learned that what he was seeing wrong was in fact him seeing color for the first time, that's how much the gov has control of the population, everyone now only sees in black and white.

The one moment in the film, where Nathan's all 'we have been betrayed' that gave me some serious chills right there. Then there's the song, I Didn't Know I Loved You So Much, which gets to me every time I hear it. You shouldn't be worried by splattered life fluids coming so easily to you. Because it could be worse, at least it's not other types of body fluids. eerian_sadow kind of read my mind with the cassettes prompt, though. I was going to post something about the more under appreciated cassettes, like Glit, Overkill, Sundor, Rosanna and the like. Just be glad I didn't ask for Movie verse Primus or Unicron. *snorts* I'm a loot whore, so I'm not even going to pretend otherwise, thus, I want the posters, shirt, tote bags and journals. And now I really, really want a Repoman costume. Just because. It doesn't even have to be Halloween. And I'd just have to put a little grey chevron or something on the helmet, too. Along with an Autobot logo.

Alright then, how about these books; Incarnations of Immortality, (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incarnations_of_immortality") Coldfire Trilogy, (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coldfire_Trilogy) and the Chronicles of Thomas Covenant. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Chronicles_of_Thomas_Covenant,_the_Unbeliever) What? *innocent look*

The Fatal Frame games are all about the psychological horror as well, but they're really hard to find. And that is a creepy sounding book, I couldn't imagine living in a world without color. Or being controlled so thoroughly. *shudder*

That song is the part where I cried, so sad. Oh yuck. You're right, that is worse.Yes I am glad you didn't ask for either of those, they're complex enough in their G1 forms to begin with. And while it'd be interesting to give it a go, I have way way too many pics I need to finish before I start something like that. Did you notice that the Repo mask looks kindof like Grimlocks' head?

*puts books on to find and read list* Thanks for the recs, I've not heard of any of these. Sorry I can't think of any for you at this time, almost all of my personal library consists of non-fiction books. Though, have you seen the movie Hard Candy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_Candy_(film))?
