I had to share this b/c it gave me a giggle...
BTW, at the risk of sounding stupid...what does pwn stand for?
Anime Rules
You got me curious, so I looked on Wikipedia:
Pwn is a leetspeak slang term, derived from the word "own", that implies domination or humiliation of a rival, used primarily in the Internet gaming culture to taunt an opponent who has just been soundly defeated. Past tense is sometimes spelled pwnt (pronounced with a t sound), pwned, pwnd, pwn3d, or powned (with the standard d sound). Examples include "pwnage" or "you just got pwned".
I guess this goes along with using "teh" instead of "the," and all the other things that kids today do to the English language.
Ok, I thought it must be something like that...why not just say own? Or pounded? LOL
Thanks lborgia!

Originally posted by amyltrer Hey Thunderbird, have you tried Gallactor models? Like fem Katse or Devilstars?Well Tbird if you are taking requests I would much rather have the male Katse than the female. Even though I am an artist myself its always fun to see how others view the characters. I'll post my male Katse unmasked in the gallery.
Okay I can't seem to get it to upload in the gallery. It thinks it isn't a jpeg pic. Geez, here it is.
In Gatch I, Katse's face wasn't ever shown when he was totally in male form, was it? I can really imagine him looking like this -proud, elegant and sinister. Beautiful work, Stardust.

Beautiful work, Stardust.It's debatable. Most people seem to think that in the episode where Katse is unmasked he changes from male to female and back. I think he's male the whole time, based on the body. There's also the quickie shot of Katse's mask being ripped off by the Birdrang. Katse unmasked (I still say this is male version):

I think he's male the whole time, based on the body. Katse unmasked (I still say this is male version):I hadn't thought about the body. I'd always thought Katse was shifting gender back and forth then, mostly, I suppose, because Katse's face kept changing colour back and forth.
I totally agree with you observation TJ, not only the body but the face itself is much more angular than the female version.
I think what threw people is that when he speaks he speaks simultaneously with a male and female voice.
Originally posted by lborgia88 In Gatch I, Katse's face wasn't ever shown when he was totally in male form, was it? I can really imagine him looking like this -proud, elegant and sinister. Beautiful work, Stardust.Yes, there's at least one episode where Katse is in male form but pretending to be civilian. He's not hot. Of course, since he has so many disguises, you could argue he's in disguise. But there are several episodes where the female Katse appears "in disguise" as hirself, and though hir hair is shorter and so forth, it still looks a lot like hir. I guess the male Katse looks a lot like hir, too, but the lips are a lot thinner. So take that face with thin lips. Starts looking a bit like Getz.
Thanks for posting your piccie, Stardust! Better watch out, Amy will get distracted from Ego...

As for the thin lips, well maybe s/he wearing the lips gloss to make them look fuller, LOL!

I've always said that should be his theme song, dude looks like a lady, lol. You have just given me a video idea....
Which episode is it that you see Katse in male form without his uniform?

Originally posted by Springie Ok, I thought it must be something like that...why not just say own? Or pounded? LOL Thanks lborgia!Poking through the threads and ran across this discussion. Ooh Ooh! I know! I know! It originated with World of Warcraft. One of the designers of the game misspelled "Own" in a segment of the game so that when the computer beat a player, the quote that was supposed to come up saying "You have been owned", came up as "You have been pwned". So it's an inside joke that went viral. Very much like the old "All your base are belong to us" meme 10 years ago.
So that's how it started... Thanks for the info!

That realistic one is actually not an Alex Ross painting. The artist's name is John Aslarona.
He did an amazing job of realism; however, I don't think the image looks like Ken at all. He's just too generic.

Love the top trump card! Remember playing this with my kids when they were younger, we had a couple of different decks.
Heck, I think my son, was playing with his buds last year when he was 17!
Heh, there does seem to be a certain "evil villain" aesthetic that Katse and Maleficent share -lots of purple and black, cape with high collar, pointy ears/horns, red lipstick...

Actually, the idea for human-looking Cylons came from Battlestar 80, the sequel to the original BSG. (Don't remember it? Trust me, you're lucky!) In this series, the Battlestar fleet found Earth, but they were still being chased by the remnants of the Cylon Empire.

We wanted Starbuck and Apollo not Troy and Dylan, even if one of them was a grown up Boxy.
