Stunticons - Tumblr Posts

Got a pic of this guy from a hotel window.

He didn't move for like 20ish minutes and when he did he booked it. Guess he had places to go lol.

I now present my latest plush, the king of the road himself: Motormaster!!

This is a plush of Motormaster's G1 design mixed with his G2 colour palette. In terms of features, we've really got nothing out of the ordinary: Plastic pellets in the hands and feet, plus some foam sheets to give the box around his head a bit more structure. I also decided that the wheels would be portrayed better as buttons :]

This guy was made as a gift for my partner, @motormusker! So I deliberately avoided posting progress pictures. I wanted him to be a surprise ^v^ (Speaking of my partner, he's currently writing a Stunticon-centric Transformers fanfic titled "King Of The Road". I'd highly recommend checking it out!)

[Small bonus under cut--]

Thought I'd share a pic of the planning sheet as well, this plush was redesigned a couple times and I'm very happy with how the final design turned out ^v^

Yesterday I did a Stunticon forest photoshoot with @motormusker! The MM and Drags belong to him, Breakdown's my guy :] (Unfortunately even with our collections combined, we still don't have a full set of Stunticons :/)

Rest of the photos are under the cut, and I'll be reblogging this post since the amount of photos I have exceed Tumblr's photo limit

Aaaand, there! That's all the forest photos ^v^

So I discovered the IDK and WTF creatures the other night

Naturally I picked the two Transformers who suited them best and drew them as such

I present, yet another plushie!

More specifically, he's a plushie of G1 Breakdown with his G2 colour scheme. I made this guy as a (once again, very belated) birthday gift for my partner, @motormusker :]

There's not much to mention in terms of features, aside from the usual "beans" in his hands and feet, alongside a bit of foam used to help his head keep it's shape

Can I ask how you made Breakdown's helmet such an accurate shape? I've been wanting to make my own Breakdown plushies and I know it says foam on the post but how do you put it together? Sorry if this is worded weirdly I'm very tired

Oh yeah, of course! I know I didn't really get into it in much detail in the plush post, I'll be happy to give you the run-down here ^v^

So firstly, here are the two types of foam I used:

For the back of the head and the brim of the cap, I used these thin foam sheets (I'm pretty sure it's acrylic foam), they tend to be about a millimetre thick. They're pretty easy to find at your local craft/dollar store. For the sides of the helmet, I carved the pieces out of upholstery foam. Upholstery foam can be quite pricey, especially if you're buying large amounts of it, so it'll be worthwhile to scour a thrift store for anything with some decent foam in it if you're just using a smaller amount. (Small note: the two upholstery foam pieces in the picture were spares from the project. The foam I had was a too thick so I had to cut it in half, and the halves ended up being slightly different thicknesses. I just cut the helmet pieces out of both since I didn't know which thickness would work better until the sewing was done)

For the top of the head, I just filled the middle piece with polyfill. This distorted the shape a bit, so I ended up putting some thread tension between the sides of helmet at the base

As for general construction, I ended up putting the majority of the helmet together externally using a ladder stitch. This might not have been the best method seen as there were a lot of little crevices and corners which were very finicky and difficult to get around, but it's the method I'm personally used to so I stuck with it. (Plus I just couldn't think of a better method that would allow me to put the foam pieces in)

I did at least think to snap a picture of the helmet in a half-assembled state:

I had the cap brim fixed to the top of the face, and I also gave the face a bit of a backing to make it a bit easier to manage. I was planning on sewing the face to the helmet the entire way around, but in the end I just fixed the cap brim around the top with a ladder stitch and the back of the head to the base at the bottom with a whipstitch.

(Key: Blue line shows the shape of the head base, Red line shows the stitches)

At this point I might be going a bit further than what you were asking, but I'll also run through attaching the head to the body: Once again I used a ladder stitch for this part, but I'll note that I didn't actually sew all the way around. Instead I pretty much just got the parts I could reach and left it at that.

Important note: I'd recommend sewing the chin to the body before the helmet, you'll need to lift the sides of the helmet in order to reach the chin.

And just another general sewing tip: If you use a lot of ladder stitches to attach external features, it's a good idea to go over the seam at least two or three times to both strengthen it and smooth it out. The stitches can look a bit jagged otherwise.

Well, I hope this helps! Good luck with your plush project endeavours, and have a good day :D

Anyone want some marshmallowified Stunticons?

I like drawing a bunch of guys as beanie li'l marshmallows I'm probably gonna do it more often

Megatron made the stunticons mostly by himself and they all desperatley need therapists from the momeent they are activated.

The autobots worked together to make the aerialbots and only ended up with only ONE of the planes being afraid of heights.

also i really in love with stunticons

have many headcanons buut its hard to tell everything so far

Really,Hub? Really?

Hub: nooo!! We can't make Knock Out and Breakdown gay bc there's kids watching this ;;!! Besides this show isn't focused on relationships!!//except maybe Arcee and Cliffjumper BUT THAT'S BESIDES THE POINT!! CYBERTRONIANS DON't HAVE A SEXUALITY!!

Cartoon Network: I mean we already have a show about space rock lesbians so?? Fuck it. Here's a character that's probably definitely their kid. Go 'Wild'

True That!!
