I don't need to compromise my principles because they don't have the slightest bearing on what happens to me anyway. -- Calvin, Calvin and Hobbes
Haven't updated in a few days, so might as well update this thing now.
Project updates for the curious:
Thundercracker's Glory -- Chapter 13 is complete and has been sent to the beta-reader. Expect it sometime in the next few days.
The Gathering Storm -- Will update this story next, but it will be delayed just a bit -- need to finish researching for my Transformers class first.
One-shot stories -- The sequel to "Breaking the Rules" is up next.
Drawing requests -- Going slowly but will finish sometime... For those of you who requested Animated characters, sorry if the pictures turn out crappy. There's a reason I mostly draw G1...
Episode reviews -- Expect a review of The Quintesson Journal sometime this weekend.
"Transformers: A History" class -- Currently researching. If anyone knows a good resource for information on the comic books, drop me a line please.
Soundwave costume -- Postponed until next year. Not sure I'm going to have time to make it this year. Ah well...
