Hello, This is the Museum of Legion Arts Threeboot! The MoLA had a long life of exhibits, but then interest lessened. New energy came and it re-opened, but it was only temporary. (Not that different from the Legion's comic book publishing history!) So, our first exhibition for V3 is: JAPANESE MECHA LEGION Here is some reference for you....http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mecha_Musume Submissions are always welcome, even after the month ends. We will see how this exhibit goes until the middle of January. Then we will assess whether it will be time for a second theme or if there is enough interest in keeping this theme. PLEASE HAVE SOME FUN! --------------------STARSEARCHERS WEBCOMIC

One of my most lovely memories is the cover of my first Battle Angel Alita by Yukito Kishiro. For the new museum catagory, she's my first entry, a rethinking of Dawnstar.

For my second entry - Battle Angel Alita had five or six (or so) incarnations, this drawing by Yukito Kishiro details 4 of them. -------------------- 'In the twinkling of an eye' I'll be dancing in the sky! Come, join me!

The posters and reimaginings are mine but the art and photos will have to be from others since I can't download any of my own work. I asked about that earlier and I think it's okay. Let me know if it isn't and I'll go back to my freelance stuff. -------------------- 'In the twinkling of an eye' I'll be dancing in the sky! Come, join me!

From one of the earliest mangas and probably my favorite, Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind by Hayao Miyazaki. She might not be mecha enough but (I agree with Sketch on her BEST identity so) Aylasicaa of Winathia the entry shall be! If you've got built in electrical shocks of untold wattage, who needs lots of guns. I feel SOOOOO much better with things this way. sigh [ January 07, 2010, 08:19 AM: Message edited by: Candle ] -------------------- 'In the twinkling of an eye' I'll be dancing in the sky!

Great start on this exhibit, Candle! The Dawnstar and Luornu are very clear representations. To me, Imrasicaa looks like Aylasicaa. I suppose the red hair and blue outfit do that. Also, the scenery seems more Winathicaa than Titanicaa. --------------------STARSEARCHERS WEBCOMIC

Here's Mecha Nura. I guess the idea is that her visions appear in her headset, powered by her circulartory system? --------------------STARSEARCHERS WEBCOMIC

Fun! Garth's a shoe in and I think Nura is neat, but we can't see her lovely face! (Love her boots and connection thingys.) -------------------- 'In the twinkling of an eye' I'll be dancing in the sky! Come, join me!
