SupportHello and please, call me Mary.
I picked up drawing since I was four and have not stopped since. My favourite art style is cartoon and my favourite genres are comedy, romance, fantasy and sci-fi. My favourite thing to draw are monsters/fictional races.

Out of all the things that would get the most takes when it comes to concept art for Pretenders, I did not think Optimus' hairstyle as a human would be one of them because one hand, I imagine him with a buzzcut because he is a soldier. On the other, he's been on Earth for a while and grew a moustache, so why not grow out his hair a bit? In the end, I went with both looks for different time periods.
And here is our MC and groom-to-be. I drew inspiration from the simplicity of TFA as well as the charm of G1 and Prime. I should also admit that I always imagined Optimus secretly being plus sized. Like Big Show the wrestler. Very muscular with a huggable belly like a trucker. That is because as a little girl, I used to think Optimus transformed into a truck because he was fat. It turns out that I was not totally wrong about body types affecting what alt modes a bot can choose from.
Anyway, as you can see, I am staying in the cartoonish theme here with him eating. Also, if you’re wondering why he has alternate outfits, it is because in my fanfiction, a Transformer’s armor stands as their entire wardrobe meaning it transforms into different outfits. It can even mimic ANOTHER Transformer’s armor if needed. The only thing it doesn’t turn into are undergarments and sleepwear meaning the armors come off allowing them to be comfortable and wash. Can you imagine Starscream sleeping on his pointy wings or Megatron being able to be comfortable while wearing the bucket helmet all the time?
Plus, I had Optimus giving Elita-One a kiss because we see her kissing him a lot, but not the other way around enough.

Not that I am complaining about it, but my Jekyll & Hyde adaptation (my first webcomic) has been getting a lot of attention lately. It's good to know that even my earliest work is so liked. I wonder if Walt Disney felt this way when people would give love to classic Snow White.
I am trying to cook and bake lighter, so I made rice crispy squares made from the Peeps no one was eating and Special K cereal.
It looks delicious. :)
Thanks though I like it, it was not a hit with my husband or son. Oh well, not everything you make is going to be a fan favourite.
This year for MerMay we have Psychoborg as a heavy artillery crab type cyber-merman. This was really fun to do.
I love that. And I forgot about MerMay. Looks like I’ve got some drawing to do…
I look forward to seeing what you come up with.
Alright. After a lot of talking, thinking and ping ponging... I decided to skip all of the drama and not risk breaking rules. I will not post fanworks on Tapas. However, if you click on my Linktree, you will see that I also have a Comic Fury, Drunk Duck and DeviantArt account.
If you want to see my Transformers fancomics which are due to air in September, you can find the there, but just not here. And that's not the end of the world. This is just one place out how many places on the Internet. I would even argue that perhaps it is all for the best.

Fanworks are a Tapas violation? I didn’t know that. There are plenty of them on here, some tasteful and some less so.
Well, they are allowed, but you are not allowed to make money off of them.
