    What do you mean by 'backgrounds'? Assuming this is for your fan animation, do you mean like dioramas to use as sets? Or do you mean a picture to use as a background to set the scenes in front of? If it's the latter I suppose you could just crib photos off the internet as long as you credit them. If it's actually built models then why not just go outside and use rocks and stuff for landscape and mechanical things easily found around the house for the inside of spaceships and suchlike? Or take photos of those things and use those as backgrounds. At least then it'll all be free either way. Make your own. Paint some drinking straws silver or grey and use those as pipes. Much more satisfying that way. Look at some of the clever and creative things people have done for their Transformers photocomics with regards to backgrounds and sets.

    Why not just make one thread for your project and post updates and questions in there?

    Create them yourself? Google interesting back grounds and print them off? Use TF fanwork? (Crediting the creators ofcourse)

    He's got one:

    Indeed. Some paper and pens and Soundwavedredd2 can have exactly the things he needs. Or adapt those he's just linked to for his specific requirements. My sister and I used to make whole towns of cardboard models with just some cut-up empty cereal boxes and some felt tips.

    What's that made of? Kinda looks like a sheet of card scored with lines and then painted (or was it that colour to begin with?), and then the Autobot logo added and painted. Either way it works well and would be a very easy thing for Soundwavedredd2 to do to make a good Ark or Autobase background.
    Only site staff can close a thread. If you want one of your threads closed ask in the Tech Support section or (I assume this is okay) report your first post in the thread and ask for it to be closed giving a reason why.
    The easiest way to check what your previous threads are doing with regard to still being open or moved or if you've already made a similar thread and so dont need to make a new one is to click on your own name and then click on 'Find more posts by Soundwavedredd2' and then look for what you've done. Or go to your profile page and click on 'Statistics' and then you can choose to find either your posts or threads you've made.

    I kinda wish the insides of TF boxes were printed with this kind of thing that kids (or adults) could cut out and assemble to make play backgrounds.

    Or Hasbro could just sell packs of cardboard self-assembly playsets.
