My Canon Now: How I Made an Original AU

Transformers is filled with a sweeping variety of alternate universes, and different versions of our favorite characters has become a franchise norm.So, why ...

Want a quick run down on original continuity creation? Look no further!

the amazing @moontruffles did a panel back during Iacon Online on precisely what this blog is about! in fact, you can find TF: Reversal on the masterlist, with its sideblog over at @transformersreversal! it’s a super cool concept that i eagerly anticipate seeing more of, seriously go check it out!

[moontruffles]

WAH that’s me!! I guess the panel I did for Ia-Con is now up on YouTube if you wanna check it out!

A commission for @drawma-king for the one and only @moontruffles :3

More fake products for my fake show! Maybe one day I’ll make real products for a real show.

Unlike the box, these were done with mockup PSDs that are free for personal use. The DVD one was from DesignBolts and the notebook one was made by Smokins on Behance.

COMING TO A STORE NEAR YOU!!! … I wish. 😂 

I probably should’ve shown this off for longer than I did in my panel but I finished it three days before the video was due (having yet to, uh, start on the video at that point) and was worried it didn’t look professional enough. The Merch is the most serious part about these robot car dudes, after all!

I made the box and the clear plastic window part from scratch in Blender, and imported the finished models into Adobe Dimension for texturing.

MECH’s secret weapon, Nightbird (+ Gil for scale reference)! She’s a spooky scary ninjabot with a super secret past. 

The NEST team is shocked to learn about her existence; they hadn’t realized MECH was capable of making full-on transformers, especially ones as smart and agile as she is. Is this ninja really just an advanced drone, or something… more?

[transformersreversal]

Thank you!

The Ia-Con panel was a great success, HUGE thank you to everyone who watched it and expressed interest in making/checking out AUs!!! If you happened to miss it, the con staff has mentioned they’ll re-upload all the panels once the event is over, so you can catch it then!

In the meantime, keep an eye out here/on my main art blog @moontruffles as I start posting some of the new stuff that you might’ve spotted during the presentation!

[moontruffles]

Memes memes memes! Why did I make them? Find out on SUNDAY, JANUARY 31 at 1:30PM EST when my panel airs at @iacononline!

[moontruffles]

A band logo for my TF Reversal kids! Since the war is over in the AU, this would probably be used for hypothetical marketing instead of the Autobot/Decepticon symbols. No text to go with it, but I think I’m sticking with Convotron for the band name!

Hello fellow original continuity creators! I know most of us have conts that diverge preettty far from canon, and many have pairings that are rare, uncommon, or only make sense in the context of that specific continuity. So, without further ado, I present a little game of sorts—

How deep into rarepair hell is YOUR cont?

List all pairings in your cont going in order from CANON, POPULAR, RAREPAIR, and ONLY MAKE SENSE IN YOUR CONT. Whoever is the deepest into rarepair hell wins!

I’ll start with the pairings in Transformers: Mirror Mirror! Pairings with their names italicized are former pairings, meaning the characters once were together or interested in one another, but no longer are for one reason or another. I’m including them as they are technically ‘ships’ in the cont, but aren’t currently so.

Canon: Oplita, Strongblade, Chromehide, Solustronus

Popular: Skystar, Rodiclash

Rarepair: Fulcfire, Spinkrok, Springcee, Moonglide, Shadyblue, Cywhirlgate,

Only Makes Sense in TFMM-land: Thundairzack, Bitwing, Termingax, Trickspade, incredibly hilariously ridiculously background Airstrafe for like two seconds, Sunpunch, Blitztraintane, Vigimaximo, one-sided Mislink, Tryptiplex, Radkrok, Fultorque, Nightrarm

April Fools: Minerveev

Please, feel free to ask if you are curious about any of these cursed and nonsensical ship names and what they correspond to.

[sgtransformersdork]

Canon: KOBD, Oplita (technically, it's complicated), Strongblade

Popular: Skystar, Oplita, KOBD

Rarepair: hah, none

Only Makes Sense for TFRU: ThundAir, Firetron (I'll explain what that is...eventually)

[thenamesblurrito]

pfffffft okay uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Canon: ...............h

Oplita??? technically??? even though its actually Optimus/Elita/Galvatron which is actually Orion/Ariel/Megatron?????? same with Lugnut/Strika/Obsidian. Cygate is also technically Skygate. the actual canon pairings i think i have are Arceeleron, KOBD, Wreck-gar/Rum-maj, and CDRW in the background, hinted Chromhide, and Lug/Anode mentioned a few times

Popular: Windscream, Megop but again on that same technicality, Springaid, Coswave but again on that same technicality, temporary Cliffcee, Cliffraj

Rarepair: Fort Max/Red Alert, Hotlock or Deadrod or whatever, sort of flirty fling Soundrod

Only makes sense in SNAP: hhhhhaaaaaaaa. Mackup, Blitzwing/Moonracer/Firestar, Swerve/Lickety-Split, hinted Thunderthunder (don’t ask), mmmmmmmmmmaybe Prowl/Shadowstriker? someday? in a sequel spotlight? maybe?

and this isn’t counting amica ships.....

if i ever write SNAP’s theoretical sequel i’m gonna subject you all to the crackiest crackship i could come up with for Sentinel

[transformersreversal]

[cracks knuckles] Alright here we GO

Canon: Lightbright/Sparkstalker, Optimus/Elita, Mikaela/Sam, Lancer/Greenlight, Arcee/Greenlight, Ironhide/Chromia, Deathsaurus/Esmeral, Knock Out/Breakdown (wow I really did break up half the canon ships I have in this AU didn't I)

Popular: Perceptor/Drift, Nautica/Velocity, Brainstorm/Quark, (one-sided) Sideswipe/Windblade, Prowl/Jazz

Rarepair: Shockwave/Moonracer (I have a BRAND to uphold), Starscream/Soundwave (why is it so rare to begin with?), Hot Rod/Blurr

Only makes sense in Reversal: Cyclonus/Windblade, June/Ultra Magnus, Tessa/Evac, Tarantulas/Elita (long story), Gilthor/literally anyone I pair him off with I haven't decided yet

Oh wow that’s way less than I was expecting lol

Rodimus Prime is a Fucking Idiot, nobody has a grasp on how romance works, half these people have the brain power of lobotomized gnats, and oh by the way they’re fighting a war for the fate of an entire planet.

Oh, and the ship’s doing… weird shit.

The interdimensional superhero kids homework club from this post has been expanded a bit! What do you do when a tiny tot from another universe consumes all of your work? Panic, mostly.

Windblade from @transformersreversal might not be a superhero exactly, but she sure does help save the world, but didn’t manage to save her assignments. Hot Shot from @autoacafiles thinks this black slime could just be a talent, like his pyrokinesis, but good on him for checking anyway! Orion from the Toku AU created by @agatharights and @drawma-king can tug as hard as he wants, he’s not gonna get that datapad back. SNAP!Orion is at least trying to defend their lack of homework.

And lil Wheelie from Agatha’s WAR AU will just keep monching away.
