FreaksThe planet Beest had seen enough visits from Transformers over the centuries that the inhabitants were not perturbed by their presence. Even so, it was infrequent enough so that when they did pop up, word about it circulated pretty quickly. And unless they were Predacons up to no good, they inevitably showed up at the one establishment that catered to their kind, in the closest thing the planet had to a capital city.

So of course, when three Maximals showed up there, the only three Transformers to take up permanent residence on the planet and act as its halfhearted guardians had to investigate. Despite being considered little more than outca
Illustration Contest Mark II (One week to go!):new:4.23 The deadline approacheth! For those of you still working on your entries, better get a move on!
This was such a success last year that I'm doing it again for my 25th birthday!
The Challenge:
Pick your favorite story from the list below and draw a scene or characters from it! I try to be diverse in my writing; Action, drama, science fiction, romance, humans, robots... There should be something in there for everybody. This year's pool has some old classics and some new favorites. Some characters have reference pictures already, but some have never been visually depicted before. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Some stories contain characters that belong to other people but feel free to draw them as well. You may enter as many times as you like.
The Rules:

You Can't Pick...
This would not do. Moonhunter came into the scene late, drawn by a crowd gathered around what someone had dubbed "The Circle of Death." (Funny, how names stuck like that.) That could only mean two things: an all-out brawl, or a duel. The crowd gave way to his presence - expecting him to play the narc, he figured. There had been enough precedent established to make that a logical assumption.

What he found within the ring was a mild surprise: a human fighting a Maximal. And of course the Maximal was winning, which wouldn't have bothered Moonhunter if the human hadn't been a member of his security staff. He was making an embarrassment of the de

Appetite for DestructionThe planet Vlenty, a world rich in life, but no native sentients. It orbited a binary star, which created an abundance of heat energy for the sphere to absorb and feed its native flora and fauna.

A perfect meal for the one known as Galactus. It would sustain him for quite some time.

His herald had summoned him. All was in preparation; it was time.

The planet's surface rumbled. Tides rose, islands sank, continents cracked. Native creatures sensed impending doom and flew into panics, trying to flee futilely. But there was nowhere to hide. Shadow fell across the hemisphere as Galactus' mighty vessel eclipsed the sun.

"Hey do you notice somet
The BodyShockwave was gone and he was not coming back. At least, his "loyal assistant" Fistfight hoped he wasn't.

He'd joined Decepticons because he was tired of his previous ignominious caste in life… as someone else's lab assistant. The only reason he didn't renege on his oath of loyalty was because he had seen firsthand what Megatron did to would-be deserters. And even if he took vital intel to the Autobots, there was no guarantee they wouldn't just stick him in yet another lab. That was what he had been built for, after all. He barely stood to an average mech's kneejoints even when he stretched his treads to full height. And he had claws in
End of an EraTried my hardest for you
Never was untrue
It was easy to do
Thought you did so too

I guess we're not the same
Like you used to claim
Believer only in name
The world made you tame

Now you wanna cut and run
All my effort's undone
Dropped me like a ton
Said you need no one

You think I'm holding you back
That I'm full of lack
Said hit the road Jack
Maybe you'll come back

Say you want the good but no bad
Like some fairy tale ad
Like this is just some fad
As if you can escape the sad

But I knew all along
Gotta work hard and long
To sort the right from the wrong
It will make you strong

I was willing to put in the work
But yo

It's still not as crazy as anything Lucas has come up with lately.
