I never planned for the interval since the last post to be that long, but things happened! I learned that Gilmore Girls and Rome are done (sob!) ! Yes, I get my news on TV stuff late. The Cubicle's current mother ship gets dragged down further for the vainglory of impractically idealistic chiefs gone deliriously mad (haply we see cult members who offer random strangers free grass), a co-worker

Can't I just go on working on a sketch, you ask, until I finish it, then work on another one?Obviously, I still can't.And here is another, which I have to say, I really, really like! Personally, it hits a spot, too, because Pidge is the character who gets the least action in any form. Powers that be, if there will be further Voltron developments, please don't make him some kind of midget

Between the last post and this, things happened again. The big heads processed reduncancies (again) and we who were asked to remain had to take pay cuts (not again, but not welcome, either!). Who signed those guys up to take over, I want to know!And now, we have something that survived obsessive-compulsive sketch reworks! And inking! And color!

I think I became engrossed with putting folds in Hagar's robes, the fingernails, and the tooth and bone thingies (inspired by a dozen movies).I was aiming for a tarot-like feel. Now that she's more or less shaped out (blue cat stuff next), I now see she's posed like duck-walking or something.

Scanners hate my graphite lines!This is a Keith study for a group combat scene.

I've manageed some updates and several posts in a row because I'm, er... rebelling. More people got sacked this week; some people were rewarded at the expense of those who don't resort to schmoozing up to the big heads.So instead of becoming serious about Turnover Of Files week, I told requesting parties (including big heads) to %&#@ off for now so we can wallow in Thai food... and I can indulge

I appreciated What If...? stories in the Marvel comicdom. Granted most stories did not have good art (it was one of the titles usually given to newbies aspiring for their big break) and some concepts were kinda lame, but the premise is what fan works are built upon.My fan works focus more on revamping the look of most characters to reflect more of the mystical and cultural aspects of the Denubian

Prince Lotor, son of Zarkon, was introduced somewhere in the middle of the series, after the show 'tested' and killed off several villains for the story. I'm guessing he came in when there were positive responses from the Prince Bokar appearance.But I'm not very familiar with the original Hyaku-ju-oh Go Lion storyline -- only snippets here and there courtesy of a great fan site by SG-B. But I am

Fan fiction and fan art are such addictive things. In real life, I do not know anyone who'd spend time developing stories and pictures for franchises that don't belong to them, so it's comforting to see many who share the insanity online.TV shows are particularly susceptible to fan stuff, expecially when there are so many potentially more interesting possibilities for favorite characters.I love

My Voltron fan site kind of suck. I've been tempted to call it The Sucky Voltron Site, or the Empty Voltron Site, or the Unfinished Voltron Site, like in The Lame Voltron Site. But doing that would insult The Lame Voltron Site, which is actually a very cool and inspiring fanfic site!I've been resolving to fill the Legends Of The Denubian Realm with finished stuff for the past four years, and yet

I reviewed the stuff that were 100% painted (no assistance from Photoshop) last year, and most of them were Zarkons, Yuraks, and Hagars. That's probably 'cause their character designs had the most... um... texture. Like warts and all. I managed a purely painted, decent Hunk, too, but it's pretty rough.My husband reviewed the stuff and commented I should practice with more colors and interacting

... But essential. Things are weirder in The Cubicle ver.2, and bosses are at their most idiotic. Ever. I'm giving things two months -- I don't even know if we get to last two more months. Meanwhile, the experiences should translate well to my favorite villains, never mind the Cirque-du-Soleil-ish costumes.I've always been fascinated with using the Lotor-carrying-the-unconscious-princess theme.

The Cubicle is now blogging, and the blog contains unfinished Voltron fan stuff, very rare updates, rants on things that hinder people from making Voltron fan stuff, and annoying details that make a big deal out of the journey to actually finishing Voltron fan stuff. Endless nitpickings on pencils, notebooks, pens, paints, and computer systems, too. I've come to accept that the journey is what
