FAN FICTION

Sweetknife24 - TFO: H - Ice Road Truckers

I've done a few fan-scripts (of various subjects...Star Wars & Predator being the main ones) in the past...And this is an idea that came to me a few years ago...And of course based on Ice Road Truckers!

Visually, I'd love to see the setting on screen. It's not a great lot, so if it isn't to your liking, you can always enjoy the scenery!

(NB: I know it isn't formatted correctly here, but it's the best I can do!)

EXT. Frozen Lakes – Canada – Arctic Circle – Day
A sky-blue Kenworth cab (W-900) HAULS a flatbed trailer, loaded with man-sized pipes, across one of the many frozen lakes.

INT. Kenworth Cab – Canada – Arctic Circle – Day
The driver of the truck is an Alex Debogorski-type; slightly portly with a big beard, wrapped in many layers of heat-conserving gear.

Oh, I can imagine. I've had Burn's swearing for a while, and tried making one myself, just to see how long it would take.

Good work though, looks really good now, and I had definitely missed a couple! :APPLAUSE:

I think the guy who did the custom is very talented, but why not just buy a Steelcore ??? :-?

That's not the point of the Creative Roundup. Why make a Steelcore when he could buy one? Valid question, in general. Not here.

Why buy one when he could make one? Also a valid question.

This thread is to celebrate the works of your fellow board members, not to dash their hopes with useless questions.

No actual custom was made. This was just a digi-bash.

Also, why make one when you could buy one? Steelcore's are hard to get a hold of right now and were $80 new. The source figure in this bash is a deluxe Orion Pax shown off at this year's Toyfair. Presumably it will be in the $15 range. plus paints and time == a much cheaper alternative.

Thanks for posting my comic but missed the Space Case custom. Guess Bee and Wheeljack did kill him in that comic. :lol:

Anyway, thanks again.

I said the guy was talented. I wasnt questioning his work, it was the concept that I was questioning. I thought it was a actual figure and didnt realize it was just a digibash of Orion Pax. But on the flip side, alot of people liked Steelcore because he was not a rip off of Hasbro IP. So it seems a little odd to want to Hasbro-ize him. I think the non-Hasbro aesthetic is what makes Steelcore unique. I wouldnt want him any other way but thats just me.

I totally agree with you there. I greatly prefer the "anime robot" look of Steelcore too.

Awesome! Wow! thank you so much for picking my custom as one of the round up pieces. I think I fix the trouble with the rest of the pictures. here is TFP lockdown in robot mode.
