Welcome friends, Romans, bumders. This is the spot for all my personal musings and random trash that doesn't fall into the fiction category. (Which the Starscream Collection is now for.)
Huzzah!
Now, go steal me fresh jams.

Moo!
Now that's out of the way, hello again!
It's honestly been way too long and I should post on here more. I do miss the community and wish it was active again.
Anywho, I thought I'd give a small update regarding life, the universe and everything. Well, maybe not the universe and everything, but life will do.
I was recently crowned with a new title within the Transformers community. The Transformers Animated continuity in particular.
A little backstory... I was a friend of the late lead designer of Transformers Animated Derrick J. Wyatt. For the last several years I've been trying to maintain the legacy of a specific character who he loved so much.
Henry Masterson, AKA The Headmaster.
Because the character has remained entirely un-utilised in official Hasbro media for over 15 years, I have been attempting to maintain interest in him, specifically by creating new artwork, gathering production art and other official media and compiling a historical database.
I admit that I possess a distinct creative insight into the mechanics of this character in a way that many might not even know. His personality, vernacular, and cadence, right down to his purple hair and specific late-90s/early-2000s 'l33t speak', perfectly mirror my own teen years. Try not to cringe. LMAO
Because I lived that exact subculture and era first-hand, I absolutely fell in love from the moment I laid eyes on the concepts of this character. I even remember the first time I saw a pic from Derrick of him I was like; "WHO IS THAT" Derrick, knowing me perfectly, replied with "DON'T".
It's an odd sort of task, collating and compiling things for a niche character who only featured in a few episodes, but this guy meant something to Derrick and also to me.
I'm doing my best to keep this lad alive in his memory.
Total Ownage, lame-os!
