Welcome fellow Seibertronians to another round of the Seibertron.com Transformers Photo Challenge. Every challenge has a theme and suggested guidelines to follow. To participate, just post your pictures in the discussion below. The TFPC is just about having fun and is for all skill levels.
To find some inspiration, or to continue the fun of posting your figures in all kinds of fun places and poses, check out our Awesome Pictures and Poses Thread.
This photo challenge will take advantage of the great outdoors. Titled Bot of the Wild, this challenge calls for members to take a figure into the wild, and take some photos of said figure enjoying the great outdoors!
The rules for the challenge are simple:
1) The photo must be outdoors and involve something in nature. Picture can be in a city, but must not only include city buildings as the backdrop.
2) Any figure is game, including simple toys, generations toys, Masterpieces, 3rd party, and so forth.
3) There are no submission limits, this is all about having fun with your figures, any time, anywhere!
Fellow Seibertronian Burn and I will start things off with 3 pictures from yours truly and a massive step up in the game thanks to a video from Burn.
Now it's time to challenge your fellow Seibertronians to setup their bots and show you what they got

Getting closer...

We made it!
More to come...

Still, hope you guys like 'em!

So I guess it's time for me to finally get off my butt and take some pics of MP Cheetor outside. Hopefully I can get around to it on Friday.

Let's see what I have in that folder of old pictures I never posted:
...Huh. That's actually more than I thought I had. I'd do newer pictures, but I am not going out in the hail.

Sorry for the poor quality...this is a screenshot of a video I took of Bludgeon in Japan nearly a decade ago.

I love that pic of Gnaw among the reeds.
This is from a few years back. I went to a conference in Berkeley and took Prime Tailgate with me for luck. My wife and I ran around the Bay area after the conference was over and took pictures of Tailgate in different places.

Nope, close! A bit too far north. Eagle Cliff is quite a bit bigger. That makes this look like a small hill.

Well I'm glad you did. Good to see it's back. I got quite a few recent Swerve pics I could share, but maybe the weather will be nice this weekend and I'll get inspired. See if I can get a good BotW vibe going on, find some rupees or an old man in a cave. Who knows.D-Maximus_Prime wrote:carytheone wrote:Well hello TFPC, good to see you raised from the dead!

Ah, I really don't know then. I've been round about in Allenspark, the Grand Lake area, and Summit County, but I don't know any of them as well. I'd swear that spot looks familiar, but maybe it's just wishful thinking because I'm missing the mountains.

I can see your attachment in your post, so I think you're good! When an attachment is posted though, it is only good in its post, meaning if someone quotes you, the attachment won't show up again

Welcome to October in mid-west Canada!
These came out really nice! I especially like how Twintwist came out.
Windblade reminds me a little bit of either Red Sonja, or a Barbarian I made for a Pathfinder game in these pics.
And more of that little ball of teeth we all love!

I still love that Insecticon photo. I think it's the best TF pic I've ever taken.

I've been doing a lot of macro photography on my collection of Transformers, and other miscellaneous bots for a potential project I have coming up. So this photo challenge is just what I needed to give me some new ideas.
With that in mind I set out today to take some nature photos of one of the most famous G1 toys.
"Countdown"
What? Never heard of him? Well to be honest neither did I until this past June, when I found him and the rocket at a thrift store for two dollars.
Here for your viewing pleasure is the sequence of shots I took this morning, just for this challenge.
Oh, and look for another bot from the 1980's to make a guest appearance in the last few photos.
