The Energon Pub

Taken outside a few weeks ago. I took an hour to set up the shot, and I wait for a bit for the sun to set so it would shine at the right angle. I took lots of pics from lots of different angles, but I think this one is my favourite, and the one I will share with you guys.

Cannonball is in the shot, but you can barely see him - bonus points if you can spot him



EDIT!

Here's a few more different angles, love the effects of the sunlight. Whoever invented those light-pipping eyes should get some sort of award...

I love the second shot here, but I was pissed that you could see the house in the background... I wanted to keep as many human elements out of the photo as possible.

Oh well.

Found Cannonball, side of his face in front of Scorponok.

You're no fun...

Ok, I just notice Classics Astrotrain is also in the pic... try to find him.

This is becoming like a really weird "Where's Waldo"...

Behind the fembots right wing, you can see his gun and foot.

You can also see his shoulder. I liekd this. But put Soundwave in there somewhere.

*Woohoo, Post #2700*

Soundwave is there, behind the fembot. Galaxy Force.

2700...Damn

Damn, I missed my favorite Con. How'd that happen!? Oh well, at least he's in there.............

Updated first post with two more different angles.

I should also specify that even though the title says these are my some of my favourite Decepticons, they are really just my favourites of recent years Energon/Cybertron/Classics - they look better in a photo together than if I was to mix G1 with Beast Wars with the new stuff...

House all gone. I also tweaked the colors a bit.

In your latest pic, who is that far left?

I like how the light hits the piping behind Classics Megatron's head just right.

Those pics rule. Gawd I love Decepticons!!!!
Thanks for sharing Skowl.

Thanks for sharing Skowl.

Decepticons are the best.

I like the updated pics. I colored my Classics Megatron's eyes red though. (Yes, you can make them red & they will still shine through his head. I used a red Sharpie) I need to take pics of MY favorite Cons & Bots.........

Wow, those are insanely cool shots!

And the pose for Megatron is very classic!

Blurrz wrote:In your latest pic, who is that far left?

Well, let's see... from left to right there's

first row: Classics minicons Beasts Overbite, Dreadwing & Snarl
second row: Undermine, Cruellock, Divebomb, Shortround
third row: Dirt Boss, Cannonball, Astrotrain, Thunderblast, Insecticon
fourth row: Scorponok, Megatron, Soundwave

Thanks alot! Too bad I couldn't post the full resolution pics, they're too big to host on photobucket.

Is that Cybertron Soundwave at the back? I never much liked that figure but it looks good in your photos. Is it any good?
Nice job btw.

Yup, it's the Cybertron one, and he is a great figure. Has a hard time standing up sometimes, but he's awesome.

No love for Battle Ravage? I love that guy! Sure, he may be kinda bricky, but he has really cool weapons, and can make for some great poses.

Hmm, how bout a group photo thread?

I have Battle Ravage and he's a cool toy too, but I didn't really have room for that many figures in the shot.

I always liked the idea of a "Your Transformers Photos" sticky at the top of the toy forum, where people can just post photos of their toys; collections, groups shots, toy battles, scene recreations, jokes, anything...

I have to agree with you on that. I love seeing other people's collections and all of the cool things that they have. I was going to start a topic about getting either a sticky or a forum for people to showcase their collections.

I'll have a little chat with my fellow staff members

Cool pics. Me like.
