#1 | | supremest of unicrons Join Date: Feb 2008 Posts: 1,706 Location: washington state Collection Count: too many to count News Credits: 2 | Thematic image thread Week 1: Captain Morgan The whole idea here is that each week we'll have a new thread with a specific theme where everyone can post pics related to the theme. I hope that this will actually be reasonably popular so we can see some really creative pics. Feel free to post any pics (transformer related obviously) you feel fall under the category as well as comments on others pics and suggestions for the next week's theme.
Week 1: Captain Morgan (I picked this because it's pretty easy and I've already got a pic to fit in the theme. ) edit: Here's a pic of Captain Morgan for those unfamiliar with the character: 
The idea is to have the left foot up on something and have the rest posed similarly to the picture. The pose is often accomanied by the catch-phrase: "Got a 'lil Cap'n in ya?" so feel free to paraphrase that for comedic effect.
The next theme will start monday if this proves to be an idea with any merit at all.
I'll kick this off with one of my favorite pics: 
Got a 'lil Prime in ya? |

And how is that not just a fairly cool picture of Prime and Megs? I'm not seeing the "theme." 
The perfect haiku would have just two syllables: Airwolf.

I'll post a pic of captain morgan in the first post to show everyone. It had not even occurred to me that cptn morgan wouldn't be immediately recognizable.
EDIT: Pic posted
If anyone is about to take a pic for this might I recommend Animated Grimlock? |

The theme doesn't have to be a specific pose it could just be an idea. I have a few ideas for next week's theme but please do make some suggestions. I want this to be as feedback heavy as possible. |

The trick to this, imo, is to try and find a TF figure that can do the pose, but withought something under it's raised leg, like in the commercials. If I can find the camera, I'll try and find one of my TF's that'll be able to pull this off with no extra support (Classics Mirage comes to mind as a possibility). Quote:
