Art Appreciation 101

New Transformers fanfiction!

[G1, post-TFTM] Slog, the Decepticon artist, has a new acquisition that he's turning into another art masterpiece; Starscream is dead again, and wants his body back. Now. And Duskwing still hasn't figured out he's dead. One artist, two ghosts, big headache. Revisiting characters from Stupidity in Blue, Redux".

Art Appreciation 101

Enjoy!

While I like artfic, Slog is a combat artist. The combat is a part of the art. Just posing an already-dead body is to combat art as printing out a copy of the Mona Lisa and putting a sticker on it is to painting.

I'm using the version of Slog written up for Dreamwave's "More than Meets the Eye" bio, which also seems similar to that used by Wayward. Slog is not just a "combat artist", he is a multi-talented artist who works in several media, and was known as such before it was discovered that he could also fight.

Mhm, as I recall from his MTMTE bio, it doesn't say he was skilled in multimedia. It says he was skilled in carving. Just posing dead bodies really involves no carving at all. 's more like... flower arranging, Decepticon style. Heh.

But hey, potato, po-tah-to.

flower arranging, Decepticon style

I like that thought. *g*

Is it bad that I'm squeeing at the idea of Starscream being made into art?

While I can see Luna's point, I still enjoyed this fic greatly.
