XFMR: Humanized — Description
"You're human," Sam blurted.

A ripple went through the transformed Sparks - anger? Amusement? Exasperation? "Sam Witwicky," Optimus said, "It would be a big mistake for you, or anyone else, to assume that we are human in anything but shape."

So, big thing in Transformers-fandom-ville seems to be 'humanizing' the bots, through holograms or whatever. Good times, except everyone always seems to make them 1) prettyboys, and 2) without any sign that they are, in fact, aliens. Occasionally, you might get a cyborg version, but still.

Which are nice, don't get me wrong (oh, some of them are so nice |3 ), but I like the idea of them still showing some sign of alien-ness.

Which my brain interprets as 'LOL GLOWY LINES AND WEIRD RUNE-TATTOOS'. Obviously. I also had this... idea, where their Sparks were actually liquid metals, and thats what shaped into human form, 'cause I has issues thinking of a hologram as a solid object => metal texture under the skin. LISTEN TO ME RAMBLE.

All the rune tattoos (minus Ratchet's chest, Ironhide's arm, Primes face, and Jazz's hip, those are stolen from Ben Proctors site or the movie) actually do say something. GUESS AND WIN COOKIES.

Jesus, these took me way too long. But they were fun. 'Cause I enjoy mucking around in Photoshop way too much. Also, would it kill the movie guys to release good, clear, straight-on views of Ratch, 'Hide and Jazz? A back view would be nice, too.
