Tfa and tfrid15 Bumblebees!

I like to imagine that Rear Axle is a heavy metal band in tfa and glamrock in tfrid15

A family doesn’t need to be a husband, wife, son, and daughter.

Sometimes a family can be a tired war veteran, his adopted OCD and/or autistic daughter, his adopted son that is just an alien robot version of Kai Ninjago, a dinosaur criminal that’s on probation, a bounty hunter that was sent to turn all of them in to the police but decided not to cuz he’s too attached, the bounty hunter’s two sons, a neurodivergent prison guard who is love with the resident neurodivergent scrap collector human, the scrap collector’s human son, and the war veteran’s dad that came back from the dead after three years for the plot.

The Spooky Sidequest NO ONE wanted to sign up for

Drift's Jettrine having to deal with Airachnid because they clearly don't have enough trauma with shady criminals with creepy bug altmodes that spit webbing at you and want you as part of their collection.

At least with Shadow Raker they were sure he wouldn't kill them and waste all the time, energy, and resources he put into training them.

Dealing with a serial killer who has a thing for smaller prey bots is a very different story.

Jetfire is the definition of the "this is fine" meme

I was on a cowboy/shattered glass phase, combine those two into this and I am proud of it! (Plus song that give birth to this!)

---------------------------------

----------------------

As you can see here, this is the wanted poster of the 'Nasty Stingers', a group of nefarious outlaws that are after lost ancient relics, looting, frauds, and often clashed with Sheriff Steeljaw and his gang.

Led by the treacherous scout Bumblebee (after the exile of Warlord Optimus), he founded the Stingers consisting of ex-elite guard Strongarm, malicious troublemaker Sideswipe, criminally smart dinobot Grimlock, rogue bounty hunter Drift accompanied by thieves Jetstorm and Slipstream, and finally duo father-son frauds Denny and Russell Clay.

Rewards for their capture is hefty (ranging from 4,000-6,000 Shanixs)

Also when I finished sketching, I had a rough time selecting a brush that gives a griddy texture than my usual. Regardless, it was fun messing with different brushes!

--------------------------

The Nasty Stingers (colorised)

(Not to mention, would it be funny that the Stingers made their way to the RiD universe and take the groups' place, i.e. changing colors and stuff? Except the optics lol)

Mini Mayhem I

I can imagine Russell Clay being the type of kid to inadvertently teach Jetstorm & Slipstream some bad habits.

[mrsvoid]

I know Slipstream and Jetstorm were buzzsaw minicons but their alternate forms looked like turtle shells so I drew that 🥲

Hmmm, Aligned Dratchet Idea. When Drift becomes a single Mom he panics and he knows like one person he might be able to trust so this sad wet cat bpunty hunter tracks down rumors of Ratchet and stalks him finding the Autobot base but more importantly Ratchet. He waits for the other bots to leave and breaks in because he may not be a Decepticon anymore he still doesn't exactly want to roll up to the Prime but he figures he can case Ratchet especially if he shows the kids.

Cue the Autobots returning to find a single mom sleeping in Ratchet's bed with twins, and he is not explaining. They live here now.

Okay but yes

Yes

He's run away from Shadow Raker who's an asshat (sdfdsdg that moment when you adopt the kids your father figure wanted to use as weapons)

But, it actually makes sense that rid Drift possibly could know tfp Ratchet from a similar situation to IDW (why was my first thought "he got stabbed"??)

So he trusts Ratchet, and while Ratchet is practically known as a cryptid among the decepticons so was Deadlock so Drift knows where to look

Also him finding and breaking into the autobot base, something that the decepticons regularly fail to do, w Drift my guy w

Drift: do not fret, I can explain

Drift: *deploys the children instead*

Ratchet: even if we decided to take you three in, we don't have any spare roo—

Ratchet:

Ratchet: fuck it, I know where you can stay

Drift: thankies ^w^ (he would never say this but it's funny to think he would)

Oh right the autobots probably saw the evidence of a fucking break in (after all they probably recheck everything very crazy often), were worried about Ratchet, then saw this adorable scene.

New art :D

*emerges from the fog* have you heard of my boy called sideswipe he suffers from little bitch syndrome and unresolved trauma he refuses to talk about

I also think he’s aroace—*gets shot*

[flyge-flay]

I...I...I don't know. I just loved these cute boys. Maybe I'll draw more, but right now I'm tired. I tried so hard!

(Hey, do you like it?) I'm actually very glad that many people liked my drawing. I was surprised that it got 15 reactions. Thank you!

Seeing Drift as a single mom in RiD 2015 is amazing and honestly one of the funniest directions you could have gone with this character.

But you know what's better than 2 mini-cons?

3 MINI-CONS!

i.e. the "Comet loves the Jettwins too much to let Jetfire be left out from Jetstorm shenanigans" and "why can't Drift have 3 tiny planes as his kids?" AU

Also known as Drift's Jettrine AU

This was basically an excuse to redesign the Drift Fam with more TFP feeling designs and give them their "original"/namesakes' color pallets, and the picture I choose to start this with is one where you can barely see any of their designs lol.

Sketch (because I kinda like it more than the completed piece lol) and the original screenshot

I actually really love the Drift fam's designs in RiD but I wanted to have fun with it taking a shot at my own designs for them.

RID15 circus au(circus rivalry)

So, for this au Steeljaw's pack would have like a creepypasta/ creature feature circus deal going. Bee team genuinely wants the public to be happy, so a standard circus that the people love. (THIS IS ALL BASED OF A HUMAN FANTASY AU)

Bumblebee would have the wings of a wasp, with two more sets of small eyes and horns like his g1 self. Strongarm is a German Shepherd (anthropomorphic), Grimlock is a dinosaur hybrid, Drift and Jetstorm are oni, Slipstream is a human and Dragon born(lung), Sideswipe is a centaur yearling, Fixit is a serpent)

Steel jaw and Bumblebee are the ring masters, obv. Steel jaw would be very good at hypnotizing children with his voice.

Strongarm is a strongman, reference to that one episode where Fixit watches her lift something of a hundred or a few.

Sideswipe is the stunt man, another reference to where Jazz comes in and he talks about the biker gang jackets on TV. It's also just a very brash very sideswipe thing to do.

Grimlock is the clown, he's definitely clumsy enough and everyone can get a crack out of it.

Fixit was gonna be a clown, but I made him a magician. He's a tech wizard in the series, now he's just a wizard. Makes sense to me.

Drift is a tightrope walker. He would spin some sword tricks and do some skill stuff on the rope cause he just got that skill.

Slip+Jet are trapeze artists. They be fliers at spark, they'd make a good duo in both standard trapeze and flying.

Steeljaw's pack: (NOTE: Thunderhoof would be a centaur, Fracture would be a creature with spines on his back, a long whip like tail, and sharp teeth/claws. The rest would pretty much be furries with Rottweiler Underbite)

Thunderhoof is the circus horse(read bottom⏬) I could see him with lights and streamers prancing around with Fracture trick riding on his back.

Fracture is the jester. He would be like candy pop more like, with the black lines on the eye. He's hothic, don't even argue with that. He's also we'll equipped, with colorful fire, tricks, and such.

Divebomb + Airazor are the lion/tiger doing the hoops. Airazor is a spider, ik, but could still have the fuzzy neck thing and jump hoops with his cat friend.

Underbite is the muscleman. Pretty self explanatory, or a sword swallower. Idk what to do with the fact that he eats a lot so he could do both? I don't know.

Springload is tumbling. He's sticky, he's got the long ass legs. He'd have the little red hatter top hat with Quillfire, who he would also have throw quills at him on a roulette wheel.

And quillfire is knife throwing. He'd volunteer people from the audience, or Springload. He'd use his quills for sure, and sometimes throw them at Thunderhoof to have him dodge them.

Honorable mentions: (Raker would be a being with beetle wings, horns, and animalistic legs.Clipshade is a Rottweiler (anthro) and Windblade is a Griffin born meaning she's half Griffin)

Shadow Raker would be a human fly. (Dancers commonly at a brothel who would dance upside down on the roof) He is also skilled in several stunts such as trapeze and tightrope, which he has taught to Slip, Jet, and Drift.

Clipshade would be a clown, if you've ever read the comics. Or a mime.

Windblade would be a silk aerialist. I don't think I have to explain that much.
