...and here's the finished product. First time I've ever taken a TF drawing from sketch all the way to finished color...and it didn't turn out half bad. O_o Special thanks to Citizen-Cybertron for encouraging me to do something with the original sketch, which is in Scraps. (The ref screenshot I used for the drawing is also linked from that upload.)
Anyway...much love for Ratchet. Snarky, yet caring guy that he is. *fangirls*

'While he finds nothing like what he was looking for, an artifact emerges from the junk piles. He takes it, and it subsequently bonds with his molecular structure, turning his body into a bizarre super-alloy.'
Ha ha, I see you took a certain someone's advice, and WOW - how well did it turn out!! See, I told you to believe in your own abilities; just look at what you've achieved. And you were going to leave this as a simple pencil sketch...
Your inking in this instance is well handled, defining the form sufficiently without being too overpowering. Working with the decidedly monotone palette on offer with this character, you have succeeded to flesh out Ratchet's physique and demeanour with deft skill. Highlights and shadowing appear suitably metallic, and I love those eyes! Using the gradient purple as a backdrop was also a good choice.
This is a great picture, Straya, and one I notice you've seen fit to even use as your current avatar even! Very cool. I'll be saving this one to my hard-drive (provided you don't mind, of course...). With this as evidence of your brimming talent, please continue to bring us Deviant Transfans plenty more images from Cybertron. Bravo!
That has got to be the coolest pics I have ever seen of Ratch! Wonderfully colored and dannnng you are good! Fav+! It's just...wow. Can't think of any better words at the moment...

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More

Ratchet: Now, are you going to come quietly or do I have to use earplugs?

good guys, bad guys, and explosions as far as the eye can see!
