stimpyParticipant
I wanted to file this as a poll, but didn't find that feature in this new flavor forum. So I'll put it as a straight question.
While I was jamming to Lemon Demon's Geeks in Love and The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny, I know that many of us are comic/web/TV/film nuts in the genre of strong female, but this is in adoration of the physically strong, who would otherwise termed: a jock.
Jock and geeks… ne'er the twain shall meet. Or…?
What do you think? Are Amaz0ids defacto geeks, or what?
Well, to paraphrase a former U.S. President, "It depends on what your definition of 'geek' is…"
When I was a kid (in the Mezozoic Era…), I was always classified as "smart." Somehow, this branded me, even among adults, as not only a "spaz," but also a "gay boy." I found this especially ironic, as the smart girls I knew were branded as "lezzies." To this day, I fail to understand what correlation there is between intelligence and homosexuality. But I digress.
For me, I think the above is what attracted me to tall, intelligent, and/or athletic women in the first place. Especially in early adolescence, the tall girls were "uncool." Non-cheerleader athletic girls were "unfeminine." The smart girls were regarded as "lezzies" or far worse. Therefore, the girls who were tall, smart, AND athletic occupied a special place in teen Hell. As such, these were the girls I was drawn to the most.
Even into college and adulthood, I continued to have a thing for tall, athletic women (intelligence is a non-negotiable requirement in my book). (un)Fortunately for me, these women became more accepted and popular, especially with the advent of Cindy Crawford, Gabby Reece, et al. as sex symbols. This made dating rather awkward for me, as the women I was drawn to suddenly rated campus rock stars and Quarterbacks, while I held geeky Physics Major status. I have a volume of amusing pictures and rejection letters around here somewhere, if my wife hasn't found them and thrown them out yet… ๐
So I guess my answer to your question is maybe yes, but not for the reason you think.
stimpyParticipantWell…
(trying to create some suspense by making you scroll down)
…Tetsuko asks…
…"how you like me now?"
GAAAAH!!!!! ๐ฎ ๐ฎ ๐ฎ ๐ฎ ๐ฎ ๐ฎ ๐ฎ ๐ฎ ๐ฎ ๐ฎ
(passes out)
mmmph… what happened? Oh yeah… ๐
Kudos, Dave! That was the most amazing… Oh, hi, honey! No, wait… it's not what it looks…
<WHACK>
(passes out)
stimpyParticipant…That's panels, not pages, unfortunately; these would constitute the top tier of Page 12.
As I said in my update blog, I needed to get back to Satin. Not only because it's been awhile since "CJ" was updated but also because, after months of concentrating almost exclusively on the exaggerated and stylized physiques of Tetsuko and the "what if" Sonya, I need the discipline of drawing (somewhat) more realistic physiques.
Looks great!
It makes sense how drawing out-of-proportion physiques all the time could put you out of practice.
Thanks for sharing your creations!
stimpyParticipantI can say something pretty uncontroversial: I want Sharapova to stop complaining about her size and start bulking up already. She's barely 130 pounds! If you go by BMI, she's actually underweight right now. It shouldn't be that hard for Sharapova to eat a little more and hit the weights, and put on 10-15 pounds over the next year or so.
I'm not so sure she weighs 130 pounds. That's one heck of a serve she's got for someone who's all skin and bones. Remember she has long limbs (maybe getting longer??)
Consider Gabby Reece. Reece had a supermodel's appearance (pro'lly still does… :-D), but weighed 175 pounds.
Anyway, Sharapova 's a well-trained professional athlete, and could probably beat the tar out of either of us.
Then again, I suppose there are WORSE ways to go… ๐
February 18, 2006 at 5:34 am in reply to: "What If…" Sonya took "The Serum"? (UPDATED w/ Page 7!) #21527stimpyParticipantOK, with all of the overhyped fanboys and insanities going on here, I guess I am going to make a very calm, rational comment…
Yeah! Those dang fanboys (well, yeah… I'm a fan too, but not a fanboy, of course)! Where do they get off? I mean, they're just overhyped (well, yeah… I just wrote a long article to flatter you, but that's different), sex-crazed (well, yeah… I read hentai, but I just read it for the articles) toadies (well, yeah, I think you're great too, but I'm calm and rational)!
Never mind.

of
The Story
(NSFW)
An excellent diversion from the main storyline! I especially liked the epilogue and knocking down the Fourth Wall — nice touch.
And the very end, when Tetsuko turns into the Incredible Tet-Hulk?! ๐ฎ ๐ ๐ฟ
One thing — I don't understand why she was mad… I mean, just because she can't scratch her nose anymore… ๐
It is rather interesting how Tet-Chan has changed over the years. Compared to your "extreme gallery," your current "mainstream" Tetsuko is bigger, more muscular… and somehow more feminine.
Of course, your last picture could be an inspiration for a new gallery… maybe you could call it the "Ludicrous Gallery!" ๐
Thanks again for sharing your creations with us, Dave!
stimpyParticipantYou know where these clips of her giggling about her growth spurts are?
Not sure if these will help, but here are links to a couple of audio clips. They're streaming — I'm not smart enough to figure out how to save them as files…
http://espnradio.espn.go.com/espnradio/story?page=allnight/women/mariasharapova#
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/tennis/4228310.stm#
The BBC site has some other audio and video clips that might work as well.

cm. Do I hear dn?

Well, I just finished pages 10 and 11; now I have a decision to make:
-Go ahead and post them now, or
-Wait until I have the rest of the pages finished.
["Jeopardy!" theme plays]
I can't decide!!
Hmmm… only one thing to do!
[fishes quarter out of pocket]
[flips coin]
Heads I post them now, tails I finish the rest first.
[tries to catch coin, fumbles the catch, coin falls to floor]
*grumble* where did it go… ah! there it is…
It's heads. (NSFW)
Now I go to fix page 6…
Heads, we win.
Tails, we win.

February 3, 2006 at 3:23 pm in reply to: "What If…" Sonya took "The Serum"? (UPDATED w/ Page 7!) #21431stimpyParticipantMmm, about… this big. (NSFW, of course.)
…and if one can take one's eyes off the obvious (not easy to do, granted… :-D), you'll notice some height and muscle growth as well.
Bravo!
BTW — the Sonya/Tetsuko perspective "error" in the earlier drawing makes perfect sense in the storyline, as Sonya will probably end up only a bit shorter than Tet-Chan when it's over (hopefully not for a LITTLE while yet… :wink:)
