Hee hee! I like the forgetful dad's hat!

Love Dreamy in that first pic... with an expression we rarely see for her.

Nothing better than visiting family over the holidays.

Hah! Lurker Lass, I love that you're exploring dysfunctional families during the holidays!

I really like your style and your rendering is very, very good!

Love the new work Sketchy! And can just say I am in love with Lurker Lass' drawings! Do you think the drawings would go out on date with me? [Wink]

(Inspired, obviously, by his comment. And by 'inspired' I mean, 'as soon as I read it I dropped everything, including my last-minute homework and studying, to doodle up a picture of Dream Girl just for the occasion.')

Hee, these are great. XD

And man, Lurker Lass...NICE rendering! I think I might actually be turning green with envy over here. The expressions are really awesome, too. ^^

All these pics are just great! This board is so full of talent.

For once, I have something to share. It's actually a true story!

How the Legion Saved Christmas

For the first 11 years of my life, I was the only grandchild, so when the family got together, there wasn't a whole lot for me to do -- unless we were at my aunt and uncle's house. There, I had the great privilege to read his extensive back issue collection, and I spent a few years working my way through the Legion catalogue in the comfy chair in his basement comic-book room.

But one December when I was 8 or 9, the adults were downstairs playing darts and making a lot of noise, so I went upstairs to read. (This was before Christmas, so I didn't have new toys to play with -- they were still wrapped under the tree.)

I plopped behind the couch (don't remember why I didn't plop on it) and started reading. After a while, I heard a strange crackling noise and poked my head over the sofa. One of the wood candlesticks on the mantel had caught fire (dripping wax on the paper towel beneath), and flames were going up the wall and headed toward the Christmas tree.

I yelled, "Fire! Fire!" The adults rushed up and were able to put it out. My uncle even used his hand to snuff a flaming ember that had jumped to the tree.

If I hadn't been upstairs reading comic books, I might not be here today to tell this story.

And that's how the Legion saved Christmas!

Oh, I love those. Gates's expression is pricless. [LOL]

for some reason I just LOVE the Kinetix one. Never heard of her, but I just love her costume and she looks fantastic!

The Christmas Tree

A real Christmas tree was a rarity on Earth. Imports had been forbidden since 2980, after the Tamaranian Rust Beetle infestation had wiped out the few native conifers. Now only one Clonal Regeneration Facility remained, fenced and guarded, supplying a few annual evergreens to the wealthiest households.

They'd never had one, of course. Her mother refused any of the credits Father had sent in those years he was out of prison. Not that even those sums would have paid for a live tree. No point in wishing, she scolded herself, but still she wondered what it would be like, as she began to unfold the shiny Lumatree.

There was a rustling sound outside her apartment door. She paused, heard footsteps receding down the hallway, the lift door closing, then silence. Opening the door, a mass of green fell onto her and a scent she had never imagined filled the air. She looked down and saw a faint glow along the perfectly smooth cut trunk. Only one axe in the galaxy cut like that, she knew, and didn't even have to read the tag tied to a branch, "Merry Christmas, Lialla".

Here's my little donation, since I haven't seen anything from WB!LoSH yet!

Sorry to be drawing from the past again, so to speak, but I haven't had much time for drawing lately.

This is a Crujectra pic I did a few years ago on the old Yahoo!Group. I look at it now and see the flaws, but at the time I was happy with it [Big Grin]

We made sugar cookies, decorated with frosting. There were some simple round ones, one of which I made look like a postboot Legion belt buckle. Alas, I had no camera handy at the moment. I thought I'd just share this tale anyway. [Smile]
 
Posted by Candle on :
 
Thanks, Dean, the cookie design is a great idea.
[Smile]

I've been inspired by the Legion ornaments I've seen here, too.

I'm going to get clothes pins, the ones with heads and legs, and make Legion figures for a tree next year.
I've made the pinheads before for church bazaars but the dolls were never Legionnaires!

For the upcoming holiday - a beautiful greeting I found at the NASA site:

Have a great day!

Since the fourth IS coming up, here's a little something I won on DeviantArt.

Posted by Candle on :
 
How'd you win?
 
Posted by Sarcasm Kid on :
 
Hmm...

I think it was one of those fanfic things. It was last year so it's kinda faded in my head.
 
Posted by Candle on :
 
You're too young to be 'faded in your head'!
Either that, or you win til it's coming out your ears!
 
Posted by Sarcasm Kid on :
 
Well, I did win another similar contest. The prize was a piece of fanart of anything I wanted, and I chose the cartoon Legion founders meeting their counterparts from New Earth. I even kind of thought up how each would react to one another.
 
Posted by Candle on :
 
And you haven't posted it somewhere here so I could see it because . . . ?
 
Posted by Sarcasm Kid on :
 
Before I joined. I think.

That's how I felt, although the artist did add in the bit about Imra's hair, not that I'm complaining.

Work in progress.

This is a belated Valentine's Day greeting, but it doesn't quite fit in the Cupid's thread, for obvious reasons.

Aw, that's so cute!

And here's my Merry Christmas to you all! I did Christmas cookies for my family (and a paying customer, for once) and had to toss in a Legion one.
