It is with immense excitement that I announce that many of the fabulous friends I've made thanks to this goofy ship and I will be having
A BlitzBee Bonanza
at the end of May! Get ready for the wonderful works of @the-awakened-insomnis, @rintinningvt, @robo-holo, @lyrebite, @djwolfie4812, @p12lysanderdelanne, @hirakaz33, @l00n3y-lynn, @einfivre, @blutratte, @chip-dip-art, @ghost-ball, @starhut, @vhsmeat, @skele-tim, @mabzerie, and @marshmeowlow! May has been the unofficial month of BlitzBee for some time now, especially in thanks to wonderful events such as BlitzBee Week! Reflecting on it, I have long been wanting to do something with my soldiers in ship arms during the month that celebrates the ship as a shared point of levity between us. In many ways, this ship is made all the more valuable by the people that enjoy it alongside you as it is by showing off your own love of it! As a part of this collaborative BlitzBee appreciation effort, everyone participating in the bonanza will be creating an art piece about the ship based on a prompt of their choosing from the list below, with the final piece to be posted over the May 29 to May 31 weekend!
For my BlitzBee buddies taking part in this occasion, you only need to make one piece for the whole weekend that you can post at your convenience over those three days! The piece can be a digital piece, a traditional piece, a written piece, a three-dimensional piece, or whatever embodiment of the goobers brings you the most joy to create! Whether you are posting it in its final form or simply sharing a WIP that you're proud of, please tag your piece as "#ABlitzBeeBonanza" along with any other tags of your choosing!
Now, time for- The Blitzbee Bonanza Prompts (to Pick From!):
Prompt 1: โMy favorite idiotsโ - No specificity, no guidelines, just show off what Blitzbee as a ship is/means to you!ย
Prompt 2: โA blast to the past" - Remake the first piece of Blitzbee art/content you ever made with your latest style/designs/headcanons!
Prompt 3: โDate night/dayโ - Draw what you think a date between the two might look like! Are they going for a walk? Grabbing a bite to eat? Committing a felony? You decide!
Prompt 4: โUnabashed self-indulgenceโ - Draw yourself, your sona, or your OC(s) with the yellow/black and purple/khaki doofuses! It can be as goofy, sincere, or chaotic as makes your moment of self-insertion entertaining!
Prompt 5: โSomething sweet, something saltyโ - Create a more finalized/detailed piece featuring BlitzBee, and then create an intentionally silly/ugly/opposing version of the first piece to contrast it! Think of it like your own art having a โgood ending vs. bad endingโ interaction!
Prompt 6: โA lovers' quarrelโ - It seems Blitzwing and Bumblebee are in conflict again. Is that conflict an argument over what to order for dinner? Is it them attempting to kill one another over an increasingly realized sense of loyalty to their factions? Is it both? The drama is yours to choose!ย
Anyone with questions, comments, or concerns about the bonanza is welcome to reach out to me at any point over the next six weeks, and please take comfort in knowing that the goal is to make this occasion as fun and achievable a shared show of ship-appreciation as is possible within the inherent busyness of all our lives! Thank you all again for being a part of this artistic endeavor, and I look forward with great anticipation to what you all bring come the end of next month!
ohohoh i might have to participate...
