"Oh my GOD, this leaves nothing to the imagination AT ALL!"

"Let me see..."

"No! I don't want you ogling this!"

"Then why'd you pose for it, hot shot?"

"It was a fundraiser! I don't know... I didn't think it would be this revealing."

"Give me that." Ripp snatched the calendar from Johnny's hand. "Oh... oh, my."

"Shut up."

"Johnny, this is fucking awesome! You're going to have people lining up to get a piece when they see this."

"Oh, come on..."

"No, really... I'm getting a hard-on just looking at it."

"You're an idiot and I hate you."

"I'm serious! It's hot." Johnny glared at him. "Oh, come on, now... aren't you jocks all gay for each other anyway? Gettin' all naked in the locker room and stuff?"

"You're an idiot."

"Hey, what's going on?" Ophelia asked, as she entered the room.

"John posed nude for a calendar fundraiser."

"Oh, really... Let me see that."

Johnny shuffled around awkwardly while Ophelia examined it.




"Nice. Real nice."

"Thanks, Phi."

"What is it with you Smiths and taking your clothes off, anyway?" she asked.

"Huh? What do you mean by that?"

"Oh... well, don't go to see the first year art show."

"WHY NOT?"

"Jill's naked and all over the paintings there," Ripp said, "It's pretty awesome."

"WHAT?!"

"Yeah, she didn't mention it?" Ophelia asked.

"Why would she?" Ripp laughed. "Johnny'd just go off the head." He smiled and looked over to where Johnny was fuming, and, in a moment of realization, he turned and grabbed Ripp by the shirt collar.

"Your BROTHER!"

*wolf whistles*

That's just TOO cute. And I love the fact that Ripp's tormenting Johnny about it too.
Oh boy, can you imagine Johnny's face if he sees Jill's 'life classes, nude poses'.....

You should make up a calendar with your characters in some (if not all) compromising poses.... that would be so cool..

[identity profile] leskuh.livejournal.com 2008-11-06 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)
So you totally made my night. Really. It has all of my favorite things in it!

- Johnny/Ripp teasing
- Nekkid Johnny
- Trio cuteness
-Nekkid Jill
- Jill/Buck implications and love

Just... OMG. I LOVE THIS.

*goes off to draw you lots and lots of naked Jills*

I love Ripp SO MUCH in this!

It's not that bad, Johnny. The ball (snicker) covers about as much as a swimsuit. ^__~

Oh God, JOHNNY, you are amazing.

Those sleazy Grunts, corrupting your little sister!

The nude of Johnny is hoooooooooot. *drools*

Poor Buck, though. I can imagine the way Johnny would just scream at Buck and Buck would be all "DDDDD:" OH BUCK I LOVE YOU I HOPE YOU CRY THOUGH I LOVE IT WHEN YOU CRY YOU'RE SO CUTE. :P

*is drawing*

I'm drawing, but we need to discuss Jill's body type. I've always seen her as relatively thin. Not too the point of Jaxy - who I imagine is bony as hell, but not round like Phi.

Thoughts?

[identity profile] ikichi.livejournal.com 2008-11-06 10:57 pm (UTC)(link)
You know, he'd probably calm down once he sees them. Life modeling poses aren't sexy (at least the challenging, enjoyable to draw ones aren't. But maybe the context of drawing nudes is so far removed from sex and so snuggly ensconced in "work".)

Hmmm... I liked what I've seen you do with her so far. I imagine her as smallish, but not exactly thin (though she gets a little of that from her Dad, like Johnny, I'd say she's more like Jenny). Not curvy like Phi, but maybe... perky? You seem to be on the right track, anyway.

[identity profile] leskuh.livejournal.com 2008-11-06 11:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, she's smaller and not as soft as Phi, but still has a sort of feminine quality. Perky sounds about right. Heehee.

I'll keep playing around with her. XD

Heehee. I'm glad. I was writing some heavier stuff and just needed to do something cartoony and fun. And now you're drawing, so my work here is done. :D

Nekkid Johnny is fun. He seems like the type who'd do it and then worry about it like this.

Drawing "lots of naked Jills" sounds so wrong, but yet so right. It would be awesome to have at least three different paintings for the show, but there's no real rush on those, so feel free to take your time.

Hee hee hee hee hee. Somehow I think poor Buck just might be getting a visit from Johnny. Perhaps off camera, of course, lol!

It's neat how the Grunts and the Smiths are tied in together.

Sounds good. If you want to get opinions on some sketches, just let me know.

[identity profile] strange-tomato.livejournal.com 2008-11-06 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Awww, yeah... hot stuff. *joins the whistling*

I love writing the Johnny and Ripp taunts and banter. It's so much fun.

Heheh. I'm sure the artistry of the paintings will win him over, and Jill always has the hypocrite card to pull out on him, since he did pose nude too. :P

I have that great calendar mesh from MTS2, with the pinups, animals, babies, cars, etc., and I'm so tempted to recolour it with some of my own images. The worst thing about recolouring is the images have to be so small, though. Even with .png images from a screencap program, I try to zoom out before I take the pics. I wonder if I'm just missing a really easy way to do it.

Yeah, it depends on the pose, doesn't it? Most are pretty classy and focused on the overall form and curves, not the naughty bits. ;)

I don't usually even draw the "crotchal region," but I do draw the breasts. That's the best part. Women are way more interesting to draw than men.

:D That makes me happy.

Hehehee. So many "ball" puns come to mind. I'm really going to have to reuse this gag.

Johnny's the man. ;)

Johnny has such a Grunt problem. One way or another, they're nothing but trouble.

Yeah, Buck would probably find Johnny pretty intimidating. Frances, however, not so much... I have this scene between them that I'm working on. I won't say much more, but it's funny, and involves Frances' Grunt-hunting behaviour.

Thanks. :) Yes, indeed he is.

[identity profile] leskuh.livejournal.com 2008-11-06 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll definitely be sending you some stuff and of course I'd love to hear your opinions. :D
ext_122042: (Default)

[identity profile] strange-tomato.livejournal.com 2008-11-06 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I'm not sure how much of this will surface in the main story, but it does happen, so I'll show something. I don't know if Johnny would run over there and flip out, but maybe... he is rather hot-headed. :P But you know that Jill would be having none of it.

Yeah, I really like how intertwined their families are, so I go with that as much as I can. It's all the more interesting for the animosity between their fathers.

[identity profile] leskuh.livejournal.com 2008-11-06 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
I agree with that last comment. I LOVE drawing girls. Boys are just... boring. Girls get fun curves.

[identity profile] strange-tomato.livejournal.com 2008-11-06 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Sweet. I look forward to it.

[identity profile] leskuh.livejournal.com 2008-11-06 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Haha, it was a clever trick - hitting all my weak points. But yeah, I can understand the need to just write something fun to get out of the angst pit. And this was great.

I love him! I doubt Jill gives a shit about all the nekkid art of her. It just shows that Buck LOOOOOOVES her.

The most right thing I've done in a long time. I'll definitely work more on Jills - probably lots tonight just because I'm now all about it.

Women are easier to draw, I think, and more fun. There's more going on in the little intricate folds. That applies to both realistic figure drawing and cartoons for me.

Yeah, I'm all about the girls.

I was driving to pick up my SO from work, actually, when I thought of this nekkid Johnny with the FT animations, and instead of filing it away for future reference, I did it right away. Now I'm back to working on the Nervous stuff...

I see Jill being as okay with figure drawings as I would be (and am). In many ways, she's the character that's most like me (just as Buck is a lot like my SO). I think she'd want to do something that her family would most likely not approve of.

Oh, but you did that trio drawing... that was very right. :D And the Jill and Phi drawing. You've been making a lot of great stuff, I thought, but maybe I'm biased. ;)

This is so hilarious. Mmm...I love that picture of Johnny. I bet Frances loves it too. Nude pictures of Jill probably wasn't the best idea on Buck's part, Johnny will probably kill him.
