    Sounds good to me, school year is also starting up in a few weeks here for me. I like that light blue Megatron there, favorite of mine out of the selection you just shown there.

    So, I will be getting eventually to genuinely, actually writing my fanfic that I first formulated some 10 years ago, but I thought it would be fun to visualize the designs of my cast.
    Just to give you a frame of reference, I wanted to set up the Autobots with less obvious alternate modes. Actually make them robots IN disguise. As such I based one off of the infamous FJ Cruiser Optimus Prime and the other on a real-life model of a common news-brand helicopter.

    Orion Pax.jpg
    Orion Pax was not a natural leader. His Cybertronian guard credentials were proof enough of it: "Service terminated." Dispatched to an outpost in the outer reaches of the Milky Way galaxy like so many washouts at the academy, he was put in command (read: babysitting duty) of a small group of ex-soldiers and other cybertronians that had ended up there for various reasons or another. Taking on a leadership role chafed at Orion's tendency to not care about other bot's problems, still disgruntled from missing his shot to join the ranks of the Cybertronian Guard. Since settling into the melancholy outpost on the Terran province of Montana, Orion found himself beginning to realize that he wasn't dispensed to this band of misfits to keep them in check, rather, it was because he wasn't so different from them after all.

    Whirl.jpg
    There was a famous slogan during the war, "sometimes crazy works" intended to motivate soldiers on the battlefield. Some took it closer to spark than most, and never quite left the battlefield, Whirl was one such bot. Whirl was a member of the Autobot airforce during the direst days of the Autobot and Decepticon conflict, suffering grievous injuries repeatedly from his near-suicidal tactics and ability to draw enemy fire thanks to the flurry of insults and slurs he'd throw at Decepticon troops. It's unclear when or what snapped Whirl, but at some point during the war, he cracked, taking on a manic personality, with some Autobots even fearing to cross his path. Swiftly removed from service and imprisoned at the tail end of the war, Whirl could never leave the trauma of the battlefield behind, even opting to not replace his makeshift head and hands from his last injury. Now on probation, Whirl is frequently found twitching and faintly muttering to himself about his battles, that is when he's not busy slipping into his old ways of regularly insulting everyone around him.

    Soon to follow designs for the rest of my cast will follow:
    (x) Orion Pax
    (x) Whirl
    (_) Cliffjumper
    (_) Wheeljack
    (_) Swerve
    (_) Blaster
    (_) Glyph
    (_) Chromia
    (_) Bumblebee
    (_) Landmine
    (_) Jetfire
    (_) Grimlock

    And of course the Decepticons
    (_) Megatron
    (_) Starscream
    (_) Soundwave
    (_) Shockwave
    (_) Ratbat
    (_) Dreadwind
    (_) Darkwing
    (_) Barricade
    (_) Tankor
    (_) Rumble
    (_) Cinder
    (_) Gnaw
    (_) Ground Seekers
    (_) Air Seekers
    (_) Heavy Seekers

    Cliffjumper.jpg
    Violent, angry, and red are all adjectives that align with Cliffjumper. He was a born soldier, literally, being one of the cold-casted soldiers produced during the height of the war. His fellow light assault troops often mocked that Cliffjumper was only happy when he was bleeding energon. This barb rings true after the war however, as Cliffjumper feels untethered without the only thing he knows and was good at: killing Decepticons. Despite being awarded honors at the hands of the Autobot council, he rejected the chance to be promoted, instead opting to work a lowly job as a security officer at a probationary outpost on Terra. Cliffjumper's ulterior motive for applying himself to such a place was so he could end himself, finding there was nothing left for him to do in a world at peace. That was until he met Liv Whitmore, then everything changed.

    Cliff is a Plymouth, and Wheeljack as a '74.
    That's great.
    Then there's Blaster as a Hippie van and that's glorious.

    My take on Soundwave as a mobile police communications van, with deployable Laserbeak and Buzzsaw drones accompanying him

    Soundwave.jpg

    Jetfire as a Dassault Falcon, including his Stratogear armor.

    Also side note, why aren't there more TFs with stratosphere based names? Stratospear? Stratofear? Stratospike? Stratosheer?

    These are all super awesome. Soundwave IMO makes a great van.


    Do you still take the occasional request or are you full-OC mode right now?

    Sorry, been behind with requests, I will complete these tomorrow!

    In my stories, Shockwave was essentially a more cruel than logical. He saw no need for disguises on earth as the easier option was to eradicate any human witnesses, why be a robot in disguise when you can eradicate any proof.

    Dropkick from your Alpha Bravo model. I am planning on a custom from that mold, and am interested in your interpretation of it.

    Also, if you ever do want inspirations for repaints, I have a lot of ideas. Not saying your own creations aren’t simply marvelous. ;)

    My take on Ratbat, basically turned into a Cybertronian leisure glider. Think something like HOS Starscream but more star wars than steampunk.

    Some recent requests!
    Request 7.jpg
    Request 6.jpg

    And at last IDW Megatron
