fan art - SGA

[astridv]

I checked out a few eps of SGA, and now it is eating my brain just a little. Spent some time digging through heaps of fic. There's a wealth of stories out there, one doesn't even know where to start. I think I might, possibly, get into this show. I ordered the Season One DVDs... what the hell, Amazon offers them at a price that is hard to resist.

I'm itching to do some fan art, but the current book is still not quite done and I have to get it out of the way before I can concentrate on anything else. But I couldn't resist entirely... here, a few sketches of John Sheppard.

There, got that out of my system, now I can get back to work with new motivation. Drawing fan art clears my brain somehow.

I'm thinking, four more days, then I should be done with this book. Maybe by then the infernal rain will have stopped. (Seriously, all these posts about heat waves and temperatures of 100F and higher are making me insanely jealous... I love hot weather.)

Um, Bones fic recs coming soon, just need some spare time to write that post...

Here via monanotlisa - they're all awesome, but in the third one you have really caught the dorkiness that is John Sheppard. Lovely work.

Thanks!

Oh, I'm happy you say that. I don't know the character all that well yet, having watched only five episodes, so I wasn't entirely sure if I managed to capture his personality.

She's right. They are all good, but the last one is totally Shep. He's a big honking dork pretending to be the hot romantic lead. Sometimes I think The Flan has fun subverting his own character and McKay is love. Right now it's one of my fandom faves so I'm tickled pink it's interesting you.

Astrid, you rock. As usual. *worships*

psychofilly, how is Sheppard a dork? I've only seen the first season of SGA. From what I remember he could be kinda goofy. Did he dorkify in later seasons?

[psychofilly.livejournal.com]

For me goofy and dorky are somewhat interchangeable, but I think he does get dorkier as time goes by, especially when he's with McKay. However I do think some of Sheppard's dorkiness is caused by Joe F and his weird ass acting choices (especially some of his expressions). Three years in and I still can't decide if he's a genius or simply the worst actor ever. Still, I love Shep, McKay and McShep like a big squishy loved thing.

LOL! Let's hope for his sake it's the former.

LOL indeed. Well, as long as the result works...

OH MY GOD YOUR ICON I LOVE YOU!

*helpless giggles*

John *is* Buffy Summers. McKay is Willow and Cordy wrapped up in a yummy, slightly squishy package. Also, the icon is snaggable, as are they all. ;)
