A new fan fiction is in the works, so I’ve added a place for it on the Fan Fic page. Updates to the character list and synopsis will be made there as more information becomes known without a formal post being made here.

Also, I’ve got a kitbash instruction page for adding working police lights to movie Barricade. The page can be accessed through Fan Art or through the link below.

Here we are almost at Christmas with another picture to add to the Fan Art page. I chose to draw Snarl this time since he was a character that didn’t feature very often with the other Dinobots. I can’t recall seeing him in the 1986 animated movie or any time in Seasons 3 or 4. So, he was in need of some attention.

The page where I list My Collection just got a face lift. I’ve added graphics to make the page easier to read.

At last I figured out how to change the structure of the site while maintaining the layout I want. This is something I’ve been trying to figure out for some time now. You’ll notice a few changes, including that bookmarked pages don’t load improperly if you happened to have linked to one of the frames in the old layout. When I feel particularly inspired I’ll have to work on improved banners for each page.

I’ve added a note to the top of the links page that I’m looking for other websites (particularly G1 sites) to link-share with. If you know of one, you can drop me an email with its address and I’ll consider it.

Today I have another picture finished for the Fan Art page. This one is of Mirage, back on Cybertron before he joined the Autobots. He’s at a party after a turbofox hunt. Mirage’s alt mode is based on the War Within design from the comics.

November 16, 2007

I made a few minor changes to pictures of Bluestreak and Prowl and reposted them on the Fan Art page. In addition to that, I started another picture and put up a thumbnail for it. This one is going to be of Mirage in his Cybertronian form before he joined the Autobots. He’s of the same design as shown in the War Within comics, but drawn in my G1 style.

November 12, 2007

I finished another Fan Art picture today. Here’s Tracks, this time in robot mode. I drew this picture with Tracks fan girls in mind.

Back in late August, I started repainting MP-03 as a Masterpiece Thundercracker. After a lot of hard work, he’s finally done. Follow the link through the icon below and you’ll find photos of my custom Masterpiece Thundercracker.

Today’s update is another piece of artwork for the Fan Art page. This time it’s Trailbreaker, in a scene from my Fan Fic “An Insecticon Disruption.”

October 13, 2007

I’ve finished another picture for the Fan Art page today. This one is also goes with the most recent fan fic, “Hide and Seek Out,” so it’s also posted with the story now. The next picture in the works is Trailbreaker, from my fan fic “An Insecticon Disruption.”

October 7, 2007

I just finished a picture for the fan fic “Through The Kaleidoscope.” The picture is posted with the story and also in full size on the Fan Art page. You can see the large picture by clicking on the thumbnail below.

Also, I decided to dismantle the “Scenic” section of the website. I saved the page with the Mount St. Helens photos, though. I moved the link to those photos to the bottom of the Piffle page since that’s supposed to be a miscellaneous section of the site.

October 4, 2007

At last, my next fan fiction is done. Hide and Seek Out is available as of today on the Fan Fic page.

September 3, 2007

A page is up for an Alternator Trailbreaker kitbash I finished in August. I’m hoping to take Trailbreaker to a location for a few scenery shots within the next short while. The timing will depend on the weather.

August 31, 2007

I made two updates on work that is in progress. The first is an update to the list of characters in the next fan fiction, “Hide and Seek Out.” All of the characters have now entered the story. The other is a picture that I’m working on for the Fan Art page. This next one is from the last fan fiction “Through the Kaleidoscope.” When it’s done, a thumbnail of it will also accompany the story on the Fan Fic page.

Also, I retook pictures of custom Alternators Prowl and Bluestreak. Last year when I made these pages, there were no police stickers for Prowl or after market missile launchers for Bluestreak for sale yet. The pictures now include these items.

Today I have a picture for the Fan Art page that parodies the popular 1970’s television series “Charlie’s Angels.” After the 1986 Transformers animated movie some of the Decepticons were left looking for other employment after their characters were killed off or replaced. This television series never made it as far as prime time…

If the Transformers were real, it would be conceivable that hydroelectric dams in my home province of British Columbia could be raided by Decepticions. After all ,Portland, Oregon and Mount St. Helens are only about a six hour drive away from Vancouver. So under that premise, I took Masterpiece Optimus Prime and MP Megatron out to a dam about an hour and a half east of Vancouver, in Mission, BC.

Ruskin Dam has been used a number of times as a filming location here in “Hollywood North.” I thought that fact lent to this dam being a good choice to stage an epic battle between Transformers. Back in the ‘90s, the dam was used many times to shoot episodes of “The X-Files.” Other productions filmed here include the movies “The Invisible” and “Lake Placid.” At least one episode of the TV series “Taken” was shot there. The last thing that I heard was filmed there was a supernatural battle on the bridge to the powerhouse. They shot it at night and were “flying” around with wires and were fighting with swords. One fighter deliberately fell into the cold water below during the filming. I don’t know shat movie or TV series that was.

There isn’t a lot of traffic out at this site, but I happened to be lucky the day I took these pictures because the road across the dam crest was closed for some reason. In reality, the roadway is big and strong enough for a big ‘bot like Optimus Prime to stand on. I tried to size both opponents to the background thinking of how big a real semi truck would appear.

Without further ado, here are my Photoshopped pictures of “The Battle at Ruskin Dam.” (Wouldn’t a stop-motion film of them fighting be cool?)

August 5, 2007

Today, I’m posting my first Decepticon fan art picture. Up until now I’ve been drawing just the Autobots. I didn’t intend to draw them so exclusively. I should really spend more time drawing the other faction to balance things out. This picture is called “Dreamer.” Starscream might have had this in mind if he had ever overthrown Megatron.

July 29, 2007

I’ve made some more cosmetic changes to the site. The list of characters in each of the stories is back on the Fan Fic page. Also, My Collection is updated, and now includes a photo of recent Botcon additions. Another Fan Art picture is well on its way toward being done so a thumbnail is up on the Fan Art page.

July 15, 2007

I’ve got a new picture for the Fan Art page today. This one is a picture of Spike and Bumblebee from near the beginning of my first fan fiction, The Spark Cell.

Happy 1st Annivesary TF Cyber Haven!

It was this day last year that this website first appeared on the internet and it’s come a long way since then. All of the Transformers art, photos and stories were created in the last 12 months.

Here’s to TF Cyber Haven’s first year on the net!
