Fry has pissed of a lot of people...

It looks like the o-mighty Kryten removed the picture on his behalf.

[#643 :]

no no - I just took the hint 

Currently working on new pic, if it turns out OK will post here in few days...

[#644 :]

Actually, Marcus, I only removed the pic from my post because I didn't want people to have to scroll past it again to get to my comments. You didn't have to delete it.

Marc may object to that kind of thing, but not me.

[#645 :]

Ah! Cheers for clearing _that_ up, then 

Actually, it was kind of the comment that had me thinking the pic was deletable; there was no Amy in the pic at all, so I assumed you were being sarcastic :P

[#646 :]

Wow. Some real great stuff here.

Zed I really like your style it looks amazing!
Also Marcus very pro and cool stuff.
Can't wait to see more from everyone.

[#647 :]

You now know what you have to do Marcus?  When you're finished touching-up your pic, share it with the world.

And then do a sexy pic of Amy, for all of us, um, I mean Kryten, yeah, for Kryten!

Yes, I want to see this pic that everybody seems to be talking about.

It's actually pretty...    as a pic, not that special! But thank you (and everyone who posted  ) for your interest - it's a real ego boost!

However, update of it is below, now that earlier confusion dealt with    I _think_ it's about ready for lining, but I'm still open to suggestions/comments/opinions...?   

Might be a while before it's completed - here to the 20th Dec. will be hellish busy with uni-work...

  Real good Leela ,it's very dramatic.I like it.   :)i like the way you shaded her.

Suddenly, the picture is some clay model of some type of gnome, Benders_Fan. Go back and look. Seriously

[#651 :]

Whoa marcus! That's awesome. Leela naked and with a gun!? What is the picture based on? The Terminator is in my head but I know that isn't right.

[#652 :]

I like how you have her hair, but is there a reason she's naked?

[#653 :]

Does there have to be one?

[#654 :]

Marcus, that is brilliant, can't wait to see that finished. It is so accurate to the show.

[#655 :]

Oooh, a little Cylon influence?

[#656 :]

Good work Marcus.   

That'll teach Boba to mess with Leela!

word.

[#657 :]

Wow, took me a few mins to remember were I read about that scene. Nice one Marcus! Can't wait to see it done!    

Venus, believe me when I say that you may not like the explanation for Leela's nakedness.    (But I found it fun to read back then. )

[#658 :]

Even if the explanation for her nakedness IS pretty bad, it'll be countered by the fact that she's naked. 

Anyway Marcus, awesome pic! Now colour it... and re-draw it from a front angle. 

[#659 :]

I agree, the pic is looking nice. I like the funky alien bushes. Couple of minor comments, but they can wait until chat.

If anyone wants to know the story behind the pic, all I'll say is, due to its content, it will _not_ be posted here.     At least not by me.

Still want to know? All right, but only mature, open-minded adults with a slightly kinky bent are allowed to read it... well, you know the site to find adult Futurama stuff, right?   

[#660 :]

Whowhaa?

Did somebody just call me?

How about a version from the robot's point of view?

[#662 :]

Wow, cheers for comments, thank you! I'll have to get to work on this when I can   

Nasty Pasty: Cylons _are_ teh kewl. Clyons getting their heads blown off (by what looks, unfortunately, like a hairdrier... I can't draw guns, OK? I admit it!) are some sort of l33t kewl.

"Venus, believe me when I say that you may not like the explanation for Leela's nakedness.  (But I found it fun to read back then.)", "Even if the explanation for her nakedness IS pretty bad, it'll be countered by the fact that she's naked", "If anyone wants to know the story behind the pic, all I'll say is, due to its content, it will _not_ be posted here.  At least not by me."

All rather a tease, isn't it?    A brief precis of the story: Zapp accidently ingests the worms that did for Fry in Parasites Lost, and with the aid the of the bounty hunter ('Boba Fettish', no less... sorry, Star Wars...) proceeds to kidnap Leela (and Amy, but that wasn't his plan... oo-ooo, check the foreshadowing of the baddie's plans not working 100%...    ) with the aim of making her love him (awww...!). He does have his wicked way with her (boo!), but that's all he does get from her.

The pic is from the escape scene; it's set just after Leela's beaten up Zapp, just before she helps free Amy, and a short 'Epilogue' before she beats up the now worm- (and memory-of-all-that's-happened-) free Zapp. Um, again   

Venus: cheers for hair comment - I still prefer the ponytail, but drawing her with her hair down does hide a lot of crappily drawn neck/shoulder-lines, so I like to use it when I can.    Also, see above for rough plot explanation of Leela's nudity at this stage.

Beamer & Zoidberg227: Heh! No bad idea! But if it was drawn from the front, Leela's arms'd hide a lot, and the weird alien foliage thing she's just leapt up from behind would hide the rest! Plus, you ever tried to draw Leela's face from the _front_? Takes ages, and it can _still_ look shabby (well, when _I_ try it, anyway). Besides, you wouldn't see the dramatic pose so well. And no, I'm really _not_ using 'dramatic pose' as a euphemism for 'butt'   

[#663 :]

So what is that fan fic called or could some one just do a link to it so I can have a slightly better idea what is happening in that pic

[#664 :]

Well, I don't think you'll get a _much_ better idea of what's going on in the pic by reading the story. Also, as has been said, duue to its content, it's not really appropriate to link to it 

[#665 :]

Maybe you could e-mail links to those who ask? I'd love to see it.

Yet another reason that I wish this board had some kind of private messaging feature.

[#666 :]

The story is on 'The Turanga Pages'; they don't allow linking.  The membership is free, but since it's an adult site, people have to answer certain questions to get a legit password.

The story is named 'The Turning Of The Worms', and if anyone goes there, do read the warning that El-Man places at the beginning.

That's right, Ralph. If you do find and read TOTW, read the warning. Carefully. You can't miss it, it's a whole page. Be warned that:

a) It is not written in the light humourous style of normal Futurama episodes, it's more serious and deals with unsavoury subjects

b) The content is such that some people might find it (and HAVE found it) offensive.

<shrug> Can't make it any clearer than that.

Still want to read it? Be my guest. I welcome serious critiques and opinions, and am more than happy to discuss anything about it. Which would probably be better served on the TTP forums, rather than here... inappropriate subject matter for a PG-13 board, y'know.   

[#668 :]

As inappropriate a subject as it may be for PEEL, this is hardly a PG-13 board.

Well, there's a certain something to be said about certain parts being partly hidden from view by other parts/props/scenery/etc.  I'm sure you could work something nice out.  And judging by your apparent talent, I'm sure if you put your mind to it, you won't have any trouble at all drawing her face.

And if you're worried about the board's moral status, my email address IS in my profile.  I'm sure Beamer's is, too.

And when I said "from the front" - I didn't mean a full front-on thing... just from an angle where more... good parts... are visible. Just a 180 degree switcharoo from this angle. Taken exactly 0.01 seconds after that previous picture. No changes have happened in that small amount of time, except for the fact that all "weird alien foliage things" have mysteriously vanished out of thin air. 

[#671 :]

Well the backstory sounds a little bizarre, but that never stopped me before   
It is a very good picture, even at this stage, love to see it when it's done   
/edit - and the gun looks fine - there you go, can't get higher praise

Really? I was being deliberately conservative. How would you rate the board, then?

[#673 :]

I don't know about Beamer's rating but I give this board a 16+ rating! (In Canada we have G, G+, PG-13, 16, 18 & 18+ ratings for movies!)

And the story that we are talking about, well I give it a 16 to 18 rating because of its content but its not that hard to read! Like they said, read the warning at the beginning.

On the level of Ultra-Porn...

sup I drew this yesterday.... I felt like sharing it with you guys

How'd that clay thing get on there?I quoted this Leela picture^,not that clay thing.That's wierd. 

[#676 :]

I have already told you but no harm in saying agian. Nice pic Marcus, very nice indeed.

On another note here is a WIP of something I started today. Strangely it was inspired while sitting in a tutorial and my Tutor had an interesting screen saver which was generating tree and it started to create lots of Cherry blossom trees. So I followed that train of thought onto "hmm it might make a nice pic to have Leela at a cherry blossom party"

Here are the lines so far. Still need some tweaking before I start colouring but I thought I would share.



Looks like she might have had too much sake.

[#677 :]

Some great works here!

I linked this in #fc and offtopic already but I'd love some more feedback  it's a joint project at uni. All parts were handdrawn, most vectorised with Streamline and imported into Flash. It's not complete yet but the idea being a young boy who gets bored at a supermarket and uses his imagination to make the world a little more interesting. I might have him getting lost and overwhelmed and the bug creature helping him find his mother. Enjoy!

[#678 :]

I know I'm repeating myself, but that's _great_ looking cloth - really looks light and filmy, very silky, even in lineart - can't wait to see how it looks coloured/shaded!   

Excellent posing/proportions, and the legs are fantastic. Not just because they're nice shaped legs (though they are!), but the lining is amazing  Even the feet came out well!

Is her left ankle alright though - looks like it's twisted? Or is that why she's sitting under a tree smashed on sake?   

Great looking lines, Wu, look forward to the finished product   

[#679 :]

That's good wu_konguk.
