Back before the holiday I realized I'd made a somewhat important error in the design of the cover for Gravity. I started to correct that error, but then the holiday hit with all it's craziness, and it wasn't until tonight that I found some time to polish things off so I could post it. We'll call this "Find the Difference" game.

Your posting of "Still Waters" on FanFiction.net made me revisit First Aid's look. (I was starving for good fanfiction, and when that happens, I reread stories I like). There's a part in there where Sideswipe and Sunstreaker are watching the sleeping First Aid without his mask. First Aid stated, previous to falling asleep, that he wears the mask because bots would see him smile [after his brothers disappeared] "...and no one understood....". My guess is, it was making others uncomfortable, and First Aid is hyper-conscious of such things. The story also relates that First Aid cannot go without a visor because of the pain it causes, and that this is directly attributable to the damage he received in Shield . It made me realize there was a time before First Aid wore either a mask or visor. Then I started to track back and realized in the early stories, First Aid wouldn't have had either.
You hint at First Aid's facial features through Sideswipe and Sunstreaker's eyes, and I had to pick up the challenge from there :) I added a touch of youth, because he is a youngling, and because while he is very precocious and mature, there is a beautiful childlike wholesomeness to First Aid's personality that I thought might actually show up in his features, moreso than his brothers. But that there, was artistic license on my part.
