Sangrose10 prompt.

Just an apology/warning that the large version may bust your screen a tad, ahahaha. The original was taller than A3, so I was a little reluctant to really size it down very much, and my partner-in-crime silencestation firmly told me not to.

I've always thought that it was suitable for Jazz, from the soul man, to become the acid jazz/house guy in the modern context. The specific prompt for this one was Deeper Underground by Jamiroquai. The lyrics though, and the [literally Godzilla-esque, if you listened to the top 40 in the 90s you'll know it's the official Godzilla '98 theme] apocalyptic setting made me want to put a little more. So here we go, ninja tag-team. Actually, more like: I'm-your-groovin'-superior-in-rank-skill-and-style-saving-your-ninja-ass tag-team, but I think we all know how cool Jazz is. ;)

Except for one thing. I somehow managed to make Prowl look more mechanical here - but Jazz is no f***ing robot. He's a f***ing android. Either that or there's some guy with the hood of a car soldered onto his shoulders, because that lower half is no robot. This is what primarily drives me crazy about(/drawing) TFA.

Otherwise though, this was the 'epic' pic I've mentioned working on, and I think it turned out pretty good. I think I'm getting better at silly 'vector'-esque backgrounds, too. :)

Thankee. ;)

The fingers signify my shameful reluctance to illustrate them the way they are in TFA...and do them jointed, more robotic in the G1 manner instead. I'm kind of sheepish about them at times, but I'm glad you like it.

[Always loved that sequence of Blurr's in Face of Nijika, by the way.]

I guess Jazz is all "I'll save your ass with style, or I won't bother doing it." XD Thank you muchly.
:iconmajesticburn:
yeah, Jazz always has to have a "Do it with style, or don't bother doing it" theology- with all things; even his job of being a good guy XD

Love the reinterpretation here--have to agree with you on Jazz, to suit 'now'--he never struck me as the 'blue-zy' type to begin with. Jazz' hands ARE very human like, Prowl's robotic, but at least they aren't 'square' with those unworkable chins (how do they move their HEADS with those monster is beyond me). A stylish wreck (given the back ground) truly.
