So. Remember that sketch I made and teased a possible new damn au that's idwg1 based, with a character that manages to best the DJD?

I'm looking through my list of spinocons, to see which would fit best this And hasn't been revamped in a while. My best contender? Spectre, technically the exact first spinocon I made that had a solid name and general design. Their backstory is very... sparce, as I made them in freshman year and wow was that a Year™️.

Anyways, the reason I'm coming to tumblr with this, is that originally this character was a sort of pale cyan color thanks to being the Cybertronian equivalent of albino— obviously made for the aligned continuity because yeah that was what i was familiar with. So, now since I'm reworking them into IDW, and well idw has pink energon instead of blue, I'm completely changing the color palette to a dusty pink and red with well brighter pink optics I suppose.

#spinocon #aaaand now that I realize it this adds some Very interesting psychological consequences as this would be goddamn terrifying #i mean hey that's how they got the name Spectre (well originally it was ghost but i thought spectre was more poetic)#bc everyone thought they were a goddamn ghost or terrorcon or whatever. Which... they aren't. they aren't even that big lol #back then I didn't really record most of my stories and a lot of them were lost #oc talk #plus i was lagging on their redesign anyways which provides us with an excellent opportunity!#fun fact through their second iteration sketch I've decided that Spectre unlike the other spinocons was to be based more on suchomimus #i call them spinocons because they're loosely based on spinosaurus and that's my Exact Favorite dinosaur so ofc all my sonas had to be them #i was an odd kid and now I'm an odd adult #riot rambles
