Description Just some late night playahs cheatin' at cards. Hey, it's not *all* angst and drama in the TF universe.

Gah, I swear, inks are going to make me pull my hair out. This was a perfectly decent pencil sketch that got absolutely bludgeoned by my hack attempt at inks. I suck at inks. Good grief. Anyway, other than a few train wrecks, I'm fairly pleased with how some of the poses came out.

Which leaves us with but one question: In a game of cards, who would win -- Prowl the genius, or Sideswipe, Grand Poomba of Cheating Scum?

Prowls-little-angle2 [2011-11-21 00:11:39 +0000 UTC]

aw! this is so good! in fact, because there is no word limit, I think I`m gonna go into deatil.
1. The inking is not bad, and this looks epic
2. both Sides AND Sunny are looking at Prowls cards. Im sure he knows, and is just waiting...
3. Wheeljack is not exploding something/he isnt missing anything? whoa, only in our dreams
4. ratchet smiling, and not looking pissed? aw! about time to
5. chubby Bluestreak! nice! normally they are all so thin
6. is that Blaster? if so, where are his cassets? (I bet hed use them to cheat)
7. Mirage is standing there clearly going Im above it, but I wanna, my reputation, or my entertainment? they probably already suspect that royals and high class played poker, but still. to play, or not to play, that is the questian. great, no Im quoting Shackspear *.*
8. Jazz looks uber confedent, my bet is that he plays poker alot, and he has to aces, lol! thats so lucky, that or he is not as above cheating as everyone thought... I always saw Jazz as the kind who loved, and was good at, poker and blackjack and stuff
so, in a nutshell, this is real good, and I love it!
it not all angst and drama in the TF world, and i should know!
loving this

Charise-Nitefire [2011-05-01 23:03:58 +0000 UTC]

I'm surprised Mirage isn't getting in on the action. I thought that richies played cards all the time. ah well... My money is on Prowl because he would figure out Sideswipe is cheating and counter him. ~nod~ ^_^
love this piece.

Sides is cheating with sunny there. C how he is looking at Prowl's cards? He's probably sending them over his and sunny's sparkbond...

sides: me?!?! NEVER!

I think Jazz is about to win...

I doubt Prowl could cheat...Sides...maybe...actually he most likely would cheat.

The-Starhorse In reply to Athenafire [2010-06-12 02:08:07 +0000 UTC]

I think Sides is cheating. He's staring down at Prowl's cards, which can in no way be a good thing... But I think you're right. Jazz has this round.

ZaksBlood13 [2009-12-15 07:48:41 +0000 UTC]

This is so fucking awesome! I love how Ratchet and Wheeljack are sitting; so close, and with their legs sorta intertwined like that . . . and I love little chubby Bluestreak! I was looking at the little details, and noticed Jazz's extra ace . . . brilliant!

Sideswipe would win. Prowl's too sweet to cheat on his own . . . now, if it were Prowl and Jazz against the twins, that would be awesome.

The-Starhorse In reply to ZaksBlood13 [2009-12-18 23:29:16 +0000 UTC]

Thanks. Ha, no one ever notices Jazz's ace. Good eye.

Wait...Prowl...sweet?

Prowl: *blink*

ZaksBlood13 In reply to The-Starhorse [2009-12-19 03:50:45 +0000 UTC]

Well, I mean, he's honest and nice, isn't he? I think that's more what I was looking for. And rule-abiding. And he'd take Sideswipe's bragging about winning good-naturedly (unlike Jazz), and not snap back at him. He's good-tempered.

I always look for details. Forest for the trees and all that.

The-Starhorse In reply to ZaksBlood13 [2009-12-20 03:42:56 +0000 UTC]

It really is interesting seeing everyone's takes on Prowl's personality. Jazz everyone writes the same, and I think the same goes for a lot of TFs. But Prowl gets a lot of different views, which I find interesting. I'm not sure any particular one is wrong either, so I appreciate seeing everyone's "Prowl style".

For me, I remember him being sort of snappish in the cartoon, so I tend to write a slightly crabbier Prowl sometimes. But you're right; he is far too moral to cheat at poker. Now, Sideswipe on the other hand...

Thanks. I actually don't like this one very much, but I don't take it down because people seem drawn to it for whatever reason.

They're probably cheating like hell.

Oreobot In reply to The-Starhorse [2009-08-08 15:32:43 +0000 UTC]

It's funny to think of them all cheating. Maybe they don't know the game rules as well as humans do, so in effect they're playing their own version of poker.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

The-Starhorse In reply to Oreobot [2009-08-12 00:48:59 +0000 UTC]

Nah, they know how to play. They're just plain cheating. It's what you do at poker.

Which is why I always lose...

Fourth-Goddess [2009-07-12 13:10:17 +0000 UTC]

lol everyone looks into the game except for Mirage XD they probably told him he couldn't play for some reason or other...I think Jazz is going to win though...only because I can see his hand slightly...

The-Starhorse In reply to Fourth-Goddess [2009-07-15 00:04:41 +0000 UTC]

My money's on Jazz winning, and Sideswipe swindling the credits off of him later.
