Team 5 and the Crazy Crew

Here we all are!

A little backstory, first; Team 5 was a silly story idea I invented in 2nd grade when I used to watch Kim Possible, and liked the idea of a superhero who led a normal human life. Thus, I turned myself and best friend at the time, Megan S, into empowered teens who find the secret base of a group called, simply, Team; an android from another planet, Lightningbolt (who you may see from time to time) an alien named Damonaheidra (I was famous for the RIDICULOUS names I made up in my earlier years) and a human woman with special powers, like us, named Bones, because she wore a deer's skull on her head. However, as my friends grew and I did too, Team 5 expanded until there were no longer five of us, but 9, and the original three members of Team took a back stage as Megan and I, and our new honorary members NaJa, Maggie, Avery and Megan W, moved into the light. Megan S eventually moved away in 7th grade and my new posse became official, full members of the Team. And here they are, the human girls, from left to right; Megan in dark purple, Avery in light blue, Maggie in green, NaJa in darker blue and moi in light purple over on the corner.

Now, as for the Crazy Crew....I used to love the idea of crossovers and would often throw my team 5 characters into various stories. If I remember the exact order, Harry Potter, Star Wars, Planet Heroes (oh dearest God save me, that's a FISCHER PRICE TOY LINE there) Unicorns of Balinor, and Transformers. Now, I love villains. And so my character Dana would spend the vast majority of her time annoying the living heck out of whichever villain was my current fantasy; Voldemort, then Vader, then Grievous, then Black Hole, then Entia, then Starscream. And the more I liked that particular villain, the more she antagonized the villain, which is why it's not surprise that in the story Grievous all but wanted to kill her, she loved to annoy him so much. (But, in the end, he fell in love with her) But I also liked horses. So I often drew the villains as horses. And over time, now that I use the Crazy Crew and Team 5 characters more for comic relief than anything else, the villains are virtual harmless, perpetually RIDICULOUS, and always doing something nutty. They've changed so much that all I need to do is change the names and they're my own OCs. 0_0 Except for Grievous....he hasn't changed at all. He's still cold, cruel, ornery and condescening. ^-^ Yup. ANYWAY....from left to right, the Crazy Crew: Vader/Anakin in normal-horse form (because I didn't want to use up the last of my black pencil on his entire Darth Vader attire) Black Hole is the one draped over Grievous, who is obviously Grievous, then Entia and Voldemort are on the same parallel (Voldy's the silver horse with the big red eyes standing behind Grievous with Maggie on his head, Entia is the winged unicorn with the green hair) and then there's Starscream on the far right. Kind of a cross between the Transformers Animated and Transformers Prime Starscream.
