Googling up decent pics of
Turanga Leela is not hard, providing you are willing to slog through a metric assload of
Futurama-themed porn. I know enough about the internet to expect to see some porn pretty much every time I use Google image search. But man, looking for a good Leela shot to use as a PC pic resulted in an
amazingly high porn to not-porn ratio. Way to go, sweaty nerds of the internet! If I could draw worth a damn I'd no doubt waste some portion of my time on similar projects.
Anyway, here are the four contenders for use as a cycloptic mutant in my post-apocalyptic
Encounter Critical game for
Winter War.
Centaur Leela would be a lock if she were holding a zap gun. Space Princess Leela definitely fits the "when in doubt sex it up" ethos of
Encounter Critical. Fanart Leela is probably what I'll go with here. You get a zap gun and her wrist gizmo but a totally different art sensibility without losing the sense of the character. And the background is neat.
and the booty doesn't hurt.
ReplyDeleteI gotta vote centaur Lela, despite the disturbing lack of a raygun. How are your photoshop skills?
ReplyDeleteSpace Princess Leela is an easy second.

ReplyDeleteSomewhere between non-existence and totally craptastic.
Nekkid Turanga Leela is one thing, but the babe gettin' it on with an octopus one *page one* of the search results...I believe the expression is: O_o
ReplyDeleteThe other week, I had to do an image of Jane Jetson, and I ran into a similar problem when looking for reference.
ReplyDeleteMeh - the fanart Leela is a poor interpretation, IMHO. I'd have to vote for space princess Leela - that's a nifty image. The fanart Leela is what I imagine she'd look like if she were to appear in Maxim magazine. (They always manage to make even the most attractive women look like cheap sluts.)
ReplyDeleteSpace Princess Leela! Space Princess Leela!
ReplyDeleteIs it sad that I recognize that Space Princess outfit from an old pulp cover?
ReplyDeletefuturama does get a bit riskay in places with leela and Amy. But its all good
