Just thought I'd share more scribbles with you all.

lborgia88 Gatchamaniac posted 8 Mar 2009 18:42

Nice! Who is the girl in the first one? Her hair and her suit don't look like the Swan's. Is she the reason that the Swan appears to be enraged in the second pic? I feel sorry for whoever she's about to stomp on! (Amazing job with the foreshortening here!)

Originally it was supposed to be a pic of Joe and Jun....when the Eagle's away...but...who knows...it could be any lucky gal.... Jun's cheered up btw

If she's in the Condor's arms, then I would say she is very lucky -but she's also doomed to die before the episode ends...

Thunderbird God of Thunder posted 8 Mar 2009 20:13

That's perhaps why she's sad. Perhaps "This is a job for Thunderbird!"

gogirl212 Master Boardie posted 8 Mar 2009 20:52

Not that I like to pick favorites . . . but I *love* that last one of Jun - so sweet.

I do like the subtle smirk on Jun's face here.

Squeeeee!! TB is at it again! I just saw the "SNT: Boot to the Head" one over at Dev Art...and I am amazed at the foreshortening! I think this pic needs a story to go with it!! And you did a Joe/Jun...SWOON!! I never could make up my mind...*ahem*...I'm sure SHE could never make up her mind between Joe or Ken... Biglaugh1

Biglaugh1

And I love the closeup of the swan...you draw her so beautifully...and she has a cheeky look on her face...like she's up to something! Fabulous!

Thunderbird God of Thunder posted 9 Mar 2009 06:09

I always thought the love triangles in anime made for more character. You saw it in Star Blazers with Venture Wildstar and Nove....and IQ9 (Yamato with Shima, Kodai and Yuki...and Analyser). IQ9 in the original uneditted versions kept lifting her skirt. The same could be said for Robotech. The existence of romance in plot brings more interest to these characters and settings. That is most evident in everyone here writing stories about them.

lborgia88 Gatchamaniac posted 9 Mar 2009 08:55

I agree. I sure know I can't resist writing fics with romance and love triangles!

Another scribble...it's hard to think of interesting things to show them doing...I keep contemplating fight scenes and then reconsider.

lborgia88 Gatchamaniac posted 10 Mar 2009 19:17

Ooh, this one's great -the ripped uniform is sexy! If I were Jun here, I know what I would consider an "interesting" thing to do... I'd love to see this one in colour too.

Very retro -I think I had a pair of running shorts just like those in the early 1980s (though I certainly didn't look like Jun when I wore them!) These are great, Thunderbird. I look forward to seeing the "cleaned up and coloured" versions too!

gatchgirl Babbling Loonie posted 16 Mar 2009 10:52

Great pics TB. You certainly have some awesome talent. Can't wait to view them in color.

Thunderbird God of Thunder posted 18 Mar 2009 15:43

I think it about half the bird styles I did. There is still others and if I find the right concept I'll draw them up to.

lborgia88 Gatchamaniac posted 18 Mar 2009 18:04

Originally posted by Transmute Jun Wasn't LB the Raven?

Yes, I'm the Raven. I use the original pic of the Raven in her helmet as my avatar over at ff.net. The Raven, sans helmet, is my avatar here too, although I've modified the original uniform TB designed somewhat...

Thunderbird God of Thunder posted 18 Mar 2009 18:39

Here are another four of the gang.

lborgia88 Gatchamaniac posted 18 Mar 2009 18:55

Ooh, let's see... TJ the Purple Honey and Met in the foreground and Katsesama the (I think) Osprey in white and the Merlin in brown (is Hino the Merlin?) It's fun to see our Gatch selves again -thanks for these drawings, TB!

clouddancer Gatchamaniac posted 18 Mar 2009 19:00 (edited 18 Mar 2009 19:01)

Good memory LB. And nice pic TB. I do notice that your pics have an abundance of women. Unlike the original team. Angel3

(Of course that can not be helped since this site is mostly women/girls here.)

Thunderbird God of Thunder posted 18 Mar 2009 19:05

I like drawing women. Far more interesting to create. Men, I have to have a good idea or reason to draw them. Don't get me wrong, I can draw them, I just never know who to draw and make them doing something. A woman can just stand they and be sexy...men..it's a fine line between looking sexy or gay and often I'm not trying to do the latter.

Transmute Jun Queen of the Bird Missiles posted 18 Mar 2009 19:16

FWIW, TB, I don't think any of your self-portraits are 'gay'! Rather, you appear to be quite smexy... Cheeky

I love the picture of us! Thank you so much! Bigkiss

lborgia88 Gatchamaniac posted 18 Mar 2009 19:21

And I'm the opposite. Looking at my own pictures, they are disproportionately of men!

SJ_SwanJun Forum Goddess posted 19 Mar 2009 05:42

:raises hand and then shuffles foot sheepishly on the floor: So ... Um ... How do I get into this little team? How do I bribe you into slipping me into a birdstyle with you lot?? Or do I lurk by the wall and suspiciously eyeball all the birdies? SJ

clouddancer Gatchamaniac posted 19 Mar 2009 06:34

SJ from what I recall, what you need to do is chose a bird for yourself, let TB know and he will do what he can.

SJ_SwanJun Forum Goddess posted 19 Mar 2009 06:43 (edited 19 Mar 2009 06:44)

Oh TB ... please? Would you? all I need to do is pick a bird??? Hmmm, well I've always been the black swan, but that bird is now owned by another, so I must pick anew. Maybe I should say a pink and grey galah ... HA! The most annoying of all birds. Rather appropriate wouldn't you say? How about a wedgetailed Eagle? One of the largest Eagles ... Ahh I wouldn't know where to start ... How about I smile sweetly and say the dreaded "Hey, TB, surprise me?" Please? And lookee .... my 900th post!!

Thunderbird God of Thunder posted 19 Mar 2009 14:13 (edited 19 Mar 2009 19:38)

I would like to do a bird you respect or find the color interesting. Just try not to pick what has already been picked.....I usually do a head shot and an unhelmeted body shot...tell me what cut of costume you would like (Skirt. bikini. shorts. jumpsuit etc...) You hair color and style..skin tone to. Ninja weapon of choice...whatever you feel would define your Gatcha Gal.

Thunderbird God of Thunder posted 22 Mar 2009 10:46

Will do that soon. I hope SJ will tell me what she wants her birdstyle to be like soon.

clouddancer Gatchamaniac posted 22 Mar 2009 11:05

Ohhhh, SJ!!! Where are you???

SJ_SwanJun Forum Goddess posted 22 Mar 2009 12:31

Ooh sorry sorry. I have real limited Net access right now because Primus are assholes ... Am dealing with dial-up right now. I'm a Wedgetailed Eagle through and through (well, only beause every species of Swan is already taken ...LOL) So browns, blacks and whites... If you want to know what Swannie over here looks like, there is a pic of me in the gallery here on Gatch. Just look for the pic with the Canadian Flag. Weapon, a whip ... Uniform? Skirt, of course ... Actually, as I am a die-hard Mark girl, anything that'd have his tongue dragging on a daily basis.... LOL! SJ

And while I don't know SJ IRL, I think I would recognize her virtual self anywhere and I am certain she looks just like her new birdie pic. Brilliant and fun. Can't ask for more then that. your work is beautiful.
