C'mon folks, that's the SECOND time Lani's posted that picture of her kung-fu kicking a large inflatable penis; SOMEONE has to find artistic inspiration in that! And agreed; it is an awesome pic.
The first time I posted that picture, it was in SPIT and so off-limits to this thread, I think. But I suspect many excellent ideas may come from a girl kung-fu kicking a giant inflatable penis.
@Andre - That is lovely, thank you! And you have more patience than me. I tend to draw my hair in a giant mass rather than individual curls. Good on ya!
@Magicsword! - Ha, I was wondering if anyone would notice that.
So the whitechapel chatroom spawned a bizarre idea, this seemed like the best place to post it, so I'll see if I can paraphrase it well. This will involve some copying and pasting and two pictures:
dorkmuffin: yeah, i'd be more scared of robin, honestly. dorkmuffin: she looks like she'd be tougher than me. dorkmuffin: and that's sayng something. i'm no delicate flower. oldhat: I increase my scariness if I speak with a Russian accent! oldhat: Also fact: I'm a black belt! oldhat: And one day plan on owning a warhammer. oldhat: dorkmuffin, you look like you could kick some serious ass. oldhat: Maybe...maybe we should... oldhat: FIGHT CRIME. dorkmuffin: YES
And thus it begins!
oldhat: The question is will we be in costumes or buddy cops? dorkmuffin: costumes. dorkmuffin: clearly. dorkmuffin: we're tall people dorkmuffin: we'd be amazons oldhat: True. Costumes would be better. dorkmuffin: and sexier. oldhat: Definitely. And NO ONE would suspect mild-mannered artists. dorkmuffin: i'm thinking a cross between xena and the slave leia bikini, but with a little bit of superhero spandex thrown in. oldhat: They'd think we'd be too bust drinking lattes. oldhat: Hmm...I'd suggest we put our hair in dreads and put stuff in it for the whole amazon effect. oldhat: And it's only natural that we learn Parkour. oldhat: Hmm...but then again...amazon or viking? Or both? No reason why we can't have one viking andone amazon... dorkmuffin: but which one of us would be the amazon and which the valkyrie dorkmuffin: you're taller, if i remember correctly oldhat: I'm 6"3. How tall are you? dorkmuffin: and i do have a norse background dorkmuffin: hahahahaha i'm a mere 5'10" dorkmuffin: you are definitely an amazon. oldhat: D'aww! I liked the idea of being a viking.
....
dorkmuffin: we could be valkyrie amazons. oldhat: ha! YES.
SO TO SUMMARIZE: Valkyrie and an amazon, valkyrie amazons, whatever, but in snazzy superhero outfits who are secretly mild mannered artists who are both damn tall (Robin being the taller of the two in this instance).
Do what you will, if you will, but here are our mugs (in order, me and then Oldhat):
Yeah, I'll throw this out there: one of the main reasons I put this up is because I'm fairly certain Robin would make an AMAZING superhero. I mean with the height plus the awesome, how could she not?
