#chuggington oc

[masterjarthub]

Happy Halloween, everyone! 🎃

Unfortunately I don't have anything for the occasion this year so instead, have these Chuggington edits I recently made! 'Bout time I started doing more of these

[lomotunes2008]

So, now that @masterj has released his design for Margot (thanks again!) I decided to adapt a little idea I had...

(They engaged in a duel 5 minutes later)

[masterj]

So, @lomotunes2008 , I haven't got around to designing Margot yet, but dammit, I couldn't wait any longer to post these facts about her story I came up with:

On the other end of Chug Town Trackside Towers is Chuggington Airport, a new location I will introduce in my headcanon (loosely based on what I saw in my dreams once or twice lol.)

Speed Fleet are the most common chugger here. It has a big station where passengers and parcels are transfered, and is the terminus of a newly built monorail line that goes all the way to Buffertonia.

Margot is one of the monorails on trial. Only up to four would be chosen to by Vee to stay.

Poor Emery was very hurt by Margot's mean words - but it wasn't Margot saying he was bad at his job that broke him - she also said his face looked like a pig, his swaying horns and buffers make him look like a ugly caterpillar, (Ooh, deja vu...) and that his eyes make him look like an ugly alien, because he has heterochromia. (Emery's left eye is green, and his right eye is blue)

And of course, he wasn't the only chugger she tormented; she called Chatsworth a wimp when she honked as loudly as she could at him, causing him to jump and overturn his hopper car.

She called Olwin a fat old fusspot because of her large streamlined body, and how upset she was when she got covered in sand from Chatsworth's car tipping over.

She called Old Puffer Pete a rusty, weak piece of junk and that he was the most useless, pathetic, and ditzy chugger she had ever seen, because he is the oldest in Chuggington and always gets the youngster's names wrong.

She finished off with I quote: "What's a smelly steamer like you still doing around?😒 Go find a scrapyard!😈"

Pete: 😨

What a bi🤬🤬🤬.

She then passes Hodge and Eddie and calls Hodge similar insults, due to the fact he is a 'hodge-podge' of scrap metal. Eddie, with his wrench clutched in his fist, shouted just what he thought of Margot insulting his faithful work companion, but alas, she was already leaving them far behind.

Margot is also very impatient and honked at everyone yelling at them to work faster, whether they were in her way or slowing her down in any way, shape, or form or not, kinda like Emily when she was bossy little b🤬tch in the S8 episode "Emily's Adventure."

Margot literally yelled exactly this at the start of her journey at The Airport, when the station porters were loading up her passenger's luggage, and honks at them, which only caused them to bump the trolley and drop everything, and the passengers, disturbed by her horn, were very angry; monorails are supposed to be quiet!

She then honked rudely at Wilson and Brewster hauling a heavy stone train from the quarry, telling at them to hurry up, even though they were not in her way or anything whatsoever because she is a monorail so they don't run on each other's tracks at all. Brewster thought Margot was the rudest monorail he'd ever met and Wilson was very cross.

But Margot thought 'it made them work harder'.

What a f🤬🤬🤬ing stupid 🤬🤬🤬🤬.

She even insulted Koko's speed claiming she could go three times faster than Hanzo, let alone her. Koko was fuming.

So yeah, she was indeed just being an absolute menace to society and causing confusion and delay overall lol, and Emery was especially miserable. He meets up with the main trio (and my yet-to-be-revealed main oc) in The Depot later and told them what she said to him. Already angry with Margot, they convinced Emery they need to tell Vee about her appalling behavior and overcoming the pain, he agrees.

But of course, they weren't the only ones to complain to Vee about Margot, and long story short, Vee was not happy, and indeed, there was nothing for it but for Margot to be sent away in disgrace. All the other chuggers and monorails went off back to work as normal, and Margot was put back on the wagon, and taken straight back to the Buffertonian production plant she came from by Dunbar. Did she ever change her ways? We may never know...

#bracket : bracket posts

#round 1/2/3/ect : polls & other things from x round.

#propaganda: submitted or reblogged propaganda in support of a given train.

RULES:

Real trains/locomotives can only be sumitted as the fictional trains they play- "Kozlova's circus train” can go in the poll, but “LMS 13065″ can’t.

Train-based media (Thomas the Tank Engine, Chuggington, Starlight express, ect) get ONE character EACH. Pre-polls will run parallel to submissions to determine which characters.

More may be included in extrordinary circumstances like it being really funny.

Characters/things that transform into a train sometimes are allowed, but only if they’re a train most of the time, or if the train-ness is an important aspect of their identity.

Trains that are real but have fictional things happen on them are allowed, but they’re on thin ice. For example, the Orient Express is allowed but only when there’s a murder on it.

Your OC trains are lovely and wonderful but also not allowed. There are simply too many. 

Submissions of trains will be considered above submissions of just locomotives by themselves.

Please try and include an image! I will if you don't, but it'll make my life a lot easier if you do.

ONE train per person.

Propaganda not only allowed but encouraged.

[chuggingtonfanatic]

Got any headcanons for all the steamies?

Sorry for the long time to respond, but here’s the headcanons I got for all of our steam engines! Collectively, I’d like to refer them as: “The steam squad”.

-Old puffer Pete-

He used to have decent eyesight in his youth. As he aged however, his vision started to not function as well as it used to be. He developed farsightedness, which creates a problem for him to see things up close. To combat this problem, Samuel (OC and previous head mechanic) and his fellow colleagues helped create a pair of special spectacles just for Pete. Pete couldn’t be any more grateful to Samuel.

In canon, Pete was prone to sleep riding (chugger version of sleep walking in case anyone forgets). Off-screen, after the events of “Park patroller Wilson”,he got his sleep riding problem sorted out after a few more nights of similar stories + one incident resulting someone getting in an accident. He was helped by Ronica and a sleep specialist to get the treatment that he needs. This could help explain why his sleep riding problem was never brought up again in the series.

As a hobby, Pete still loves to fly kites. After witnessing kids flying them during a summer in his youth, Pete got amazed and decides to try them out too. He has a storage compartment specifically for the colorful kites he has owned over the years.

Pete secretly has an old phonograph wagon hidden in a storage spot. He held a ton of sentimental value to it since that’s a gift given to him by James (OC, first mechanic on Chuggington railway) before immigrating to Tetsudō Republic. James is also the one that constructed the phonograph wagon. Before his retirement, he and Pete shared fond memories with the wagon together. Sometimes when Pete is having a rough day, he’ll pull out one of the records and place it onto the phonograph to listen to. On occasion, Olwin will join him on this for bonding time.

Back in Old Chuggington, there was a memorial bench in the depot dedicated to Daniel (OC), a human railway director that was Pete’s trainer. On his death anniversary , Pete would go there to honor and respect his father figure.

Out of all of his friends back in Chuggington, Olwin is the closest to him. Although she arrived to Chuggington a couple of years after him, they became quite close.

-Olwin-

Her former smothering tendencies to trainees stems from a subconscious desire to secretly wanting a mother figure growing up (something she believes would be nice to have), mixed with maternal instinct (Her creator was a mother herself). Of course, after the canonical events of “Outbound Olwin” she toned down the need to guide the trainees in every step of the way.

In the past, she used to be a full-time trainer. The reason she’s a trainer on occasion in recent times is simply due to Dunbar’s arrival. His arrival frees up the responsibility she has to training trainees. During the time of his arrival, Olwin was needed for other workloads. She hasn’t returned to be a full trainer again, but misses being one.

In her spare time, Olwin loves to do bird watching. She uses special binoculars (made by Dr. Ling) for her to see and view the birds up in the sky. She’s the one that introduced the hobby to Chatsworth (also a headcanon).

Olwin knows a secret waterfall in the outskirts of the old town. She named the waterfall: “Sue” after a close late friend. During her youth, she and Sue would often play together by the waterfall. After Sue’s passing, Olwin decides to name their childhood waterfall playground after her. Whenever Olwin isn’t in such a good mood, she’ll retreat herself to the secret waterfall location. The sounds of the rustling water and ambient, quiet sounds of nature helps soothe the elderly chugger’s nerves.

As a young chugger, Olwin used to love playing with little wooden chugger figures in her free time (they’re like dolls, but for chuggers). She’ll sometimes play alone or with Sue (who also likes playing with them). Daniel knows how much Olwin loves them and will gift her a new one for special occasions. As she got older, Olwin lost interest and eventually stopped playing with them (they are still hidden somehow in the old town though). Despite the lack of interest of playing with toys nowadays, Olwin still has fond memories playing with the wooden chugger figures.

To this day, Olwin loves watching vintage movies. She specifically loves the romantic ones. After the first time seeing a film, Olwin gets pretty invested in the movie world since (Idk if there’s a Chugington world equivalent for Hollywood). It’ll take some convincing to have Olwin willingly watch modern films.

-Speedy McAllister-

Speedy’s last name “McAllister” came from his creator, Malcolm McAllister (OC). Unfortunately for Malcolm, he was diagnosed with a terminal illness during the last few weeks of Speedy’s creation. Sensing his time is running out, one of Malcolm’s dying wishes to have Speedy gain his last name. By the time Speedy entered the world, Malcolm has left.

In his free time, Speedy is an avid story listener. The types of books he would read are classics, poetry, mystery, horror and suspense & thriller.  Unfortunately for him, the text from the books would usually be too small for him to read. Back in the old times, Speedy would try to find an available human friend to read the stories out loud to him. In modern day, he’ll use a specialized magnifying glass (created by Dr. Ling) that can help enlarge the text on screen for him to read. He has a special place in storage that he can access to as a small library.

Speedy is an animal whisperer. Perhaps his calm, patient personality is what makes many animals drawn to him. He has gradually learned how to talk down to animals to make them trust him right off the bat. He also has a way to calm and tame the wildest ones. His voice is certainly helpful to get animals to listen to him to begin with. He has a list of notable animal friends he has made over the years.

He, Pete and Olwin were a close trio back in the old town. However, due to being sent to work on a different railway after the demise of the old town (and short stay on the new town), he gradually drifted apart from them.

The reason Speedy came out of retirement in season 2 is simply just for the desire to work alongside his remaining old friends again (Pete and Olwin being amongst the few). Speedy has seen the world during his retirement, but still overall preferred home.

He became quite close to Piper due to her bearing resemblance of an old friend personality-wise.

-Piper-

Piper does love all of her friends, but at the same time, she sometimes couldn’t help but feel worried about being the only young steam chugger around.

In a way, Piper reminds Zephie of herself when she was new to Chuggington. Out of all the younger chuggers in Chuggington, Zephie is the closest to Piper and considers her as her “best friend”. This is perhaps why these two have gotten closer in season 6.

Piper likes to blow bubbles. In her free time, she’ll pour small amounts of soap in her boiler just to create bubbles out of her funnel. She specifically tries to use scented bubble solution whenever she can (which is what she prefers using).

Many animals that reside in the Safari park absolutely adores Piper! As of recent times, she has been a frequent helper around the park, even in her free time/day off. She knows all of their names, likes/dislikes and has even been observant on their behavior/characteristics. So much so, she’ll eventually become one of the very few chuggers the animals are the most willing to listen to.

Piper shares a close friendship with Mtambo due to her frequent visits to the Safari Park whenever she’s free of her duties. Due to her immense love and fascination for animals and wildlife, Mtambo became pretty fond of her as a “niece”. Heck, he'll occasionally organize special private events just for her as other special ways to interact with animals at the park. Mtambo promises her one day when she gets to advanced training, she’ll be his full-time assistant!

Out of all the current steam chuggers that debuted in the series, Piper is the closest to Speedy. The reason being is that she reminded Speedy of a late friend in the old town.

Sorry it took so long to make! I’ll be sure to be sending more fun stuff here often! :D

[masterjarthub]

I've made face expressions for Astra!

Here's set 1:

[masterjarthub]

About Astra:

Astra is a compartment engine who can carry extra Chug Patrol gear and equipment.

Personality:

She is relatively a kind-hearted, eager-to-please teenage girl; she is always happy to do whatever job she is given with a can-do attitude. While there are occasions once in a while when her excitable nature can get the better of her, she is still focused and very capable. Sweet, lively and encouraging, Astra is always ready to do her part, whether it's keeping the tracks safe as a Chug Patroller, or just making everyone smile as a friend.

Astra In Action:

Astra is fresh from completing training, and is the youngest full-time Chug Patrol member. (Wilson does not count; he is only a part-time member as he is still a trainee) She often tags along on emergency callouts with the rest of the squad.

She'll volunteer to do other jobs whenever the oppurtunity arises as she simply loves helping and enjoys a brief change, but in her spare time, she is hobby photojournalist (She has a retractable smartphone-like camera located and stored where her pop-up wingmirrors are; inside the hatch with the Chug Patrol emblem on the door to access her engine placed adjacent to her face, I will draw this in the future)

Ever since she was a trainee, she journals photos and sometimes videos of her everyday life and adventures, usually just cute selfies of herself or group photos. She shares them online with some of her old friends who also partake in this hobby. She also finds her camera useful for reporting track and trackside hazards to Chug Patrol.

Additional facts:

She was a Chug Patroller in Tootington quite some time before moving to Chuggington. She was a top student as a trainee and moved up so quickly, she had graduated while still in the chugger equivalent of teenage years. (Very rarely do chuggers become fully-fledged when they're young. Hodge, Zephie and Emery are the only canon chuggers in this scenario) She had a very close relationship with her old mentor before he suffered a tragic accident that permanently put him out of commission, but he would still be put back together and preserved by a museum. Astra had been invited to Chuggington around this same time and was sad to leave him behind, especially in the sorry state he was currently in, but he reminded her that he'd always be with Astra in her heart. She did manage to recover before she left for Chuggington, but didn't open up to the others about this situation until much later.

She also likes stargazing, and the Planetarium (A new location on the outskirts of Chuggington suburbs) is one of her favorite places.

She has a playful and adventurous relationship with Wilson, and is his best friend to be with whenever Brewster and Koko aren't around. She's usually the Chug Patroller Wilson is on patrol with if not with Jackman or by himself.

Like Wilson, she too would form a father-child-like relationship with Jackman.

She also has a bit of an aunt-like relationship with Calley and an uncle-like relationship with Asher.

Often while they're in CPHQ, Asher likes to listen to chill music on the radio and Astra in particular sways side-to-side or even full-on dances to the music on the turntable.

When she's not with Wilson, Brewster, Koko, or Chug Patrol, she also has a dynamic with Zephie cuz girl power lol

Astra's creation and design was inspired by the Plarail Disney Dream Railway Mickey Mouse Rescue Train by Takara Tomy:

Unfortunately, I couldn't find a perfect real-life resemblance of this locomotive no matter how hard I tried, however the main body does seem to loosely resemble a E6 series Akita Shinkansen:

Now, I'm under the impression that Mickey rescue train was a freelance design, but if by some crazy chance any of you know a better real-life resemblance, do comment below, I'd appreciate that. (^ー^)

Annnd I think that's that, everything you need to know about Astra! I'm hoping to make actual 3d orthos for her, but those are quite tedious and challenging, so for now, that side view and posed render I made back in 2022 will suffice. I wanted to get her revealed before any other Chuggington OCs before it gets too late into the year... and I still need to draw Margot The Monorail for @lomotunes2008 😅...

I was planning to get this released a bit earlier in the day, but additional editing and new content on Youtube kinda got in the way of that :P

But anyway, I hope you all enjoy and do stay tuned because there will be more of Astra, and more OCs in the near future!

[masterjarthub]

So uhhh, I may have done some serious cooking last night...

After finally revealing Astra to you all, I felt it was imperative that you got to know what she sounds like as well, horn, engine and voice.

The sound file for her horn is SoundDogs, Trains, Horns & Whistles - Train Horn Blasts Short 2X 01. Clean, although those of you fellow Thomas fans might know exactly where else it's used...

I also gave her her own custom variant of the snow horn from S2 for the sake of it.

Her engine SFX are from SoundDogs and Soundelux, mixing the following sound files:

SoundDogs_Trains_ElectricTrain_Electric_Start_Rev_Idle_Off_1980s

Soundelux_DX_Amtrak_Train_Idle_Close_Up_To_Engine_Tk.2

Her US voice is based off of Emma Berman who starred in Pixar's Luca, and also currently stars in two Disney Jr shows. (One of which being Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures, which is where I pulled the voice clips from)

I based her UK voice off of Twinkie Jaiswal, who voiced in the Hasbro series Ricky Zoom, (which I pulled clips from) and also starred in Kidz Bop, Hilda and the Mountain King, and various other roles.

I used x-minus.pro online to clean the voice clips.

This video was edited with InShot and compressed with VEED.IO online.

[lomotunes2008]

Pain and suffering follow her wherever she goes

[lomotunes2008]

Margot the Maglev decides to emotionally manipulate Emery into converting himself into a cargo tram because she loves spreading pain and suffering and misery wherever she goes

[masterjarthub]

Figured I may as well make a separate post for my illustration of Astra :)

And that'll complete the Chug Patrollers! (^ー^)

[lomotunes2008]

I came up with an AU where Turboe (a TTTE OC of mine) accidentally takes a wrong turn and ends up in Chuggington

Also Turboe & Margot interaction:

Turboe: (Sees Margot) What's that? A giant slug?

Margot: (Sees Turboe) What's that? A living fossil?

Turboe: You f///ing take that back-

[masterj]

Good afternoon, everyone. :)

I just wanted to make an announcement regarding my Chuggington headcanons.

Firstly, I want to thank you all for the kind reception the first two have received so far, it has not gone unappreciated, and it makes me very happy to see a good number of you, not just my followers, enjoying my content overall. ☺️

And secondly, yes, the headcanons are gonna be a recurring thing, dw. I do have a few more in mind planned for the coming weeks, these including The Depot's renovation in S4 to accommodate for CPHQ and The Working Wheels Yard, the Chuggineer's introduction, and perhaps even the origin of our main trio themselves :3

On some additional notes, the character origins aren't gonna be in an a specific order, depends on whenever I come up with them for which character.

In the future I will also have some new characters revealed, some entirely my OCs and some I've come across elsewhere; credit WILL be given. My most prominent OC is currently still in the process of having her bio and orthos completed, but she will be the first introduced once that's done. Not revealing any spoliers tho >;)

So keep your eyes open for some very interesting stuff as well as more of my artwork and edits for the foreseeable future... 😉

[lomotunes2008]

Little example of Margot being manipulative:

Emery: (exists)

Margot: (rolls up) Hey Emery you're kinda bad at your job maybe you should leave the passengers to me and become a cargo chugger lol
