Anyway here's a shitty meme I made
The starscream brain rot be hitting hard. And I have another song idea that fits him which has turned into a character analysis as well.
'The Mind Electric' with the bits that goes
"Someone help me understand what's going on inside my mind" could be the change of Starscream's mentality due to the normalisation of his abuse and how he views it as -normal-. And if it's Skybound it could be whatever the hell Megatron did to force Starscream to kill the prisoners when he first joined.
"Doctor I can't tell if I'm not me" literally the post war Starscream being paranoid he's not the same person at all as he was before like a clone maybe and the fact that he can't form connections with anyone. And again in Skybound it's the gap between Ulchtar and Starscream.
"See how I laugh at you" resembles Starscream constant undermining of others to make him feel better due to his insecurities and also the fact that his whole life he was laughed at so he does it back similar to the "abuse cycle".
"No you'll never understand" right after that bit shows how nobody has been in his situation and nobody tried to understand or reach out to help him mentally without blaming him for it or even just completely brushing it off. Also highlights how nobody believes him when he tries to talk about the abuse (Hashtag did tho even said how she believes Megatron who she looked up to a bit ig hurt him, a complete 180 of what everyone else does and the fact that she is close to Megatron but isn't brushing it off says so much -nobody has mentioned this from what I've read which is weird cause it just shows how clear Starscream's PTSD is (also fuck Hasbro for taking it away from us)). Saying how he brought it upon himself and that he kept trying to usurp Megatron meant he deserved it. And again shows how he can't grow attachments cause nobody views him as a victim only a failure who deserves his punishment so they don't find reason behind his actions. Not trying to "understand" why he hurts people or in the songs case "laugh" at them because they don't see him as a product of abuse that needs to be cared for. Only a bot who's worse than Megatron ever was.
Or this version
Washing machine heart by Mitski but it's Starscream looking at Megatron being forgiven and redeemed and treating everyone else nicely.
Whilst he's called unredeemable and will never get an apology.
Like it's all I see at the 'why not me?' bits. And at the end I see it as him being in bed(berth?) and hyperventilating in desperation but also throwing something at the walls in anger.
The way it's like 'get real' is just so childish to me I can't stop giggling. I guess it's another reason to add to my Starscream is a angsty young teen list.
Also the insult is literally like teenage movie insults you can't lie.
I know everyone and their mom is posting this saying about the bitch part but I'm still going to have my say.
Little Skybound Starscream Character analysis or breakdown of SMT that I saw nobody mention. Bear with me.
So the basics are - Starscream was first Ulchtar and changes name after his friend died and his eyes also turned red. So we have that down but if you look at the words Starscream says
'My name is Starscream' but also when we learn he is still alive after his fight with soundwave he says
'Starscream that's my name' which mirrors the words when he changed his name. Also it's more of a reassurance that that truly is his name but there's nobody around so the one he's trying to convince is himself. If that's not enough he chose his name from Genvo's last words and in the picture above he is saying them again to Genvo's first words that we as readers hear. (So that gives a lot more depth and it may not seem that much but further down it does help tie some ideas together.)
Also in this scene it could be viewed as Starscream arguing against the voice he hears almost as if he doesn't remember that he had a different name before and is probably why he himself hasn't brought it up afterwards because to him it was a hallucination that got his name wrong. Or it could simply be him not wanting to remember it as he knows the last him would regret what he has turned into. But I do think he might have forgotten some things if the past at least and that may be due to Megatron but I'll do that part in a different post.
So my point is - Ulchtar and Starscream are not 'exactly' the same person they are like different points in life but instead of it being like a sequel it's more like an entire reset to the story.
Sorry if my writing is bad I'm literally a kid and tho I cook in my English writing NOW it was not without failing really badly I EVEN CHEATED MAN.
But I spotted the name thing out as I first saw it and I connected the dots and it did in fact almost make me cry but is anyone going to see this.
NOOOOO!
Animated starscream except he doesn't have his tits no more.
Did it without reference which is probably why his chest is flat (don't shame him tho)
Little prime starscream doodle cause I need to learn how to draw that mf but I guess we can make him look less like a starved cat.
What do you mean I simplified his design so I can draw him in this stupid pose like.......
The brain block be real guys. Also this gotta be my fav design for starscream like it's basically modern armada design
(Both have swords and make you cry
I swear why is it the versions that use swords that make you cry like Hasbro FREEEEE HIM)
I lied I couldn't find a way to add the primes (yet tho DW) and I didn't feel like doing TC and SW yet so more shockwave content. Part of the au in previous posts. The next post of the au is going to be with soundwave to match with this (it will give more information).
So yeah my reason that empurata isn't a thing is that he's younger here and also the council isn't able to do that also it doesn't exist. That's why I kept some similarities to his usual face with the colours and soundwave.
My plan is to post some intros and lore of this au for a bit and then I'll stop so I can practice drawing so I can give more content and also maybe writing.
Btw she doesn't know anything about transformers and she only knows Starscream and Megatron. - btw it is cause she hates him if it wasn't clear
Thanks for the 250 likes. This is the little idea I've been having for a while. Skybound starscream my beloved they could never make me hate you (annoyed most definitely tho).
The words are inspired by the song below cause I thought it really fits this version of them.
First time drawing Megatron and I swear he's just ugly like that not because of my drawing. Anyway I'm trying to find references to continue more work but it's proving to be difficult.
Hopefully I'll find a way to turn this into a video or digital.
little piece of a little project that I'm finishing up. I predicted so much in Skybound about starscream like how he really was innocent and ig that doesn't seem like much but I also said he wouldn't even hurt a bug and guess what it was a major thing in his backstory. I also knew that Megatron had somehow forced him to kill didn't know exactly but yeah it would be an innocent or against codes. And guess what again, it happens. So I'm predicting a redemption arc (I'm coping okay) that he gets some crazy bpd as Megatron's hold on his mind gets erased or whatever that was and you have ulchtar and starscream and ulchtar wins or smt and starscream gets to see how the world actually works and happily ever after and ain't nobody going to see this.
Important news there was a song in my head but I forgot it and it kept me up at night cause I was imagining star dancing to it. Mourn. Edit : I found it
Posted this before but I only just realised it wasn't put up so here we go ig. No new content cause I just had a test but I'll try to add either some primes or TC and SW to the au.
For now I'll post some old art like this one tho I might make four more drawings.
this is hopefully gonna be art that's a part of my au but either way it's baby starscream.
When I tell you I barely draw digitally especially since I'm using the ultimate combo of finger and a phone but I wanted to try.
I do in fact have a scene that's playing in my head for this drawing but I don't know how to get it out you know.
I'll probably post some old art or smt for a little bit.
Thanks so much for 100+ likes so here's a starscream page I finished. Prime looks ugly AF as I choose a really bad picture but there's nothing we can do and only as I'm posting this I realised that the cyberverse pic I chose for a reference was edited from the OG as I don't think they have pupils.
Shockwave and soundwave are now added to my au (check out the other post if you've only seen this one pls)
This is surprisingly my first time drawing bots that aren't Starscream even though soundwave is my second favourite.
This took longer to post especially due to it being the work day's but I still got it done 👍🏻.
On the last drawings I tried to at least make it look like there are flames near them with the orange and red but that could use extra work.
I'm trying to see what design I should stick with cause there'll be changes from the original designs.
Thanks for the 24 likes on the last post did even better than the previous one.
I have more to give on Shockwave and Soundwave but that may not be the next post.
continuation of my last post with the au and I have indeed made two memes out of it.
I'll try to practice poses and other characters so I can properly give good content.
Thanks for the 15 likes on the last post and I also added colour on this one.
I thought that if Megatron isn't the reason why he is like this then it was something in the past and it really correlates with his personality for me. This is like my little au hopefully will make some memes on it in the future also this isn't inspired by someone else so if there is someone out there who has done this ig great minds think alike.
If you can't read some words ( neither can I 😢) just comment or smt else I'm too lazy to do it here.
And Tumblr keeps blurring the pictures man I might try and see if I can get a better pic on. Edit nvm it was when I was typing this it was blurry but ig when you post it unblurs or smt
You use whiteboard pens on whiteboards. I use them to draw on paper. We are not the same.
But like bro's side profile is immaculate just saying.
I love when they give this sort of bat shape to him. Quick design I made.
The different versions of starscream . Also why is tfp so hard to draw man.
PLEASE HASBRO I WILL DO ANYTHING TO HAVE STARSCREAM BECOME UNDERSTOOD WITH GOOD REDEMPTION AND EXPLORATIONSHAHA
BONUS IF THERE'S SKYSTAR CONTENT PLEASE
Hasbro just really hates Starscream, don't they?
I touched grass a few weeks ago and while aggressively and illegally speeding through highways like Blurr (for legal reasons this is a joke), I snapped an ✨ aesthetic ✨ sunset pic. But the vibes were giving OG Bayverse, heavy 2007 vibes, like BIG TIME, so I edited Optimus in there cuz why the fuck not? 🌚
(Edit: some ppl said it looked creepy and I kinda see it now so I added eyes to make it creepier. I like it the creepiness, it’s a vibe wtf?)
(Edit 2: I was having a rlly shitty time and then everyone that I care for on here just came in and started liking and reblogging and complimenting this post and I’m like… 🥺 thank yall so much fr fr 🙏)
Second pic Third pic Fourth pic
I need to make a separate post for this but-
MEGATRON CAN SKATE
HE SKATES
IM GOING INSANE
I found this old "comic" in my folder so I thought it would be time to post it.
(Blurr is a professional spy ofc he's not gonna let his boss catch him photoshopping his likeness)
