Edit: Topic typo

I thought I'd go with a cartoon for this month's gallery submission. This started out as a joke about Playboy wanting to do a photoshoot with all three ladies but I thought the "Play Boy" joke was funnier...

This is actually my third try at a Lu pic. I had two pther ideas that just weren't shaping up as planned. I guess it's appropriate that the third one is the one that I finished.

Awesome boots Spellbinder! Are those from the Princess Crujectra apparel line?

Well, Lu DID ask me for my opinion, poor dear. Ever since Kinetix was terraformed, the Legion has been without a fashion consultant. You know me... I'm a firm supporter of off-the shoulder tops, but I think this works well for Triad. Some of her selves are more conservative than others

BTW, I enjoyed your Triplicate Girl pic. I liked that you gave her three separate reactions, which plays more toward the split personalities we've seen post-boot, as opposed to the ones hinted at only toward the end of the pre-boot.

Very cool, Drake! That's much better than my first attempt (I was going with a sort of "Charlies Angels" pose, but was having trouble getting what I wanted).

I think Triad Purple, at least, would know the answer to this question...

Here's what I got:

Triad Custom Figures

I had to redo the boot cuffs since this picture was taken. The clay I used broke off on Purple so I upgraded all the sculpts with epoxy clay. I also filled in the lines on their legs too.

I really want to do Coipel-esque versions of Triad... and Duo Damsels versions as well... someday I'll get to them after I finish with other characters that need to be done.

This isn't new, but I don't think I've posted it here before...

Luornu's theme :

Here's a poem,
the first of three,
to explain what Luornu,
means to me

She had me with that purple skirt
as her crush on Superboy led her to flirt,
But her Cockrum outfit, with sexy cape,
made every little youngster get all bent out of shape

Sassy and sexy, we can't get enough,
we fans stick by her when things get rough,
and although her hottness isn't quality number one,
the other two poems will show how Lu is so fun!

One of the things that's fun about these gallery shows is that we end up seeing the character through the ages in all their various outfits (no Giffen purple/orange bodysuit though) or originals -- good job all! We need to get more people to contribute though. I hope this is just an off month and not an indication that interest in the galleries are lagging.

I'm still working on it. Promise. Usually, as soon as I start sketching, something else comes up. But I promise to have an entry by the end of the month.

For my third and final submission, a slightly naughty Triplicate Girl Haiku:
Two's company, three's
a crowd, four adds a bouncing
boy crying out loud.

Cobe, where's your other two!?!

Me too DrakeB, maybe folks just weren't sure which of three to chose? Still, I think more people voted might have voted this time around so hopefully interest and museum attendance will be up again this next round.

In the Spotlight Again

The end of Zero Hour left me quite sad
I was hesitant of the reboot before I got glad
Stupid, I was, to think I'd stay mad,
once I got a glimpse of the spanking new Triad!

Always a favorite, Luornu made me smile,
but her preboot appearances occured just once in awhile,
now the new continuity allows her to shine,
so that everyone loves this old favorite of mine

Although I lost Dirk, Gim and Drake for a bit,
Seeing Lyle, Gates and others made up for it,
But the best part of the reboot, and this there's no doubt,
is seeing the spotlight on Luornu in the reboot throughout!

This is nothing fancy, but I had drawn this a few years back while doing laundry. Laundry time used to be very productive for me sometimes

The Noble Survivor

First came Computo, which ended a life
the first moment of grief and her endless strife
Death seemed to be a thing that Luornu would know
Luck was rough for many Legionnaires, for some moreso

Next came the day that she conspired to kill
And once again she tasted death's cold icey chill
another body was gone, another moment of pain,
yet Luornu pressed on, her spirit did not wane

Grief and sadness tested her enough to make anyone blue
But Luornu had something that few did: a love that was true
An arguement can be made for Luornu's bad luck
But I'd like to think she ended life happy with Chuck

Fine work all! I especially like Mines' action figures and Cruey's costume design in his first pic which seems to combine several elements of past Lu costumes. Lovely!

Interest isn't lagging, but there's usually a "summer lull" in posting. Don't let that phase you!

Found this while browsing around, and thought it was worth posting



From here

Oh, and the Jeff Moy pic I coloured the other day

How's this conceptually? I thought I'd play with it just a little bit and see what it might look like before putting any real time into it.
