Title: Teyla the fire eater
Rating: G
runpunkrun suggested circus sideshow acts for the team, so here's Teyla being hot </lame pun>





Also, I haven't really thought of the others, so no guarantees, but feel free to make suggestions for what you think the others' acts might be :)

Ooh the colors and lighting/shadow in this are just awesome. Great job!

Rodney the lion tamer, John on the high-wire and Ronon a clown (just think of all the fun he'd have getting out of the car).

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much!

Ooh, I like the idea of John on a high wire. And yeah, Ronon in a tiny car is kind of inherently hilarious. Thanks for the suggestions :)

OMG. The colour and light and shading and muscle! This is amazing and beautiful and I love it!

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! I sort of surprised myself with the lighting, I wasn't sure I'd be able to come as close to what was in my head as i did. Glad you liked it :)

[gweneiriol.livejournal.com]

that is made of AWESOME!!!!

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much!

[mitzi007.livejournal.com]

Wonderful colours and atmosphere.

Rodney is a magician, John an acrobat and Ronon a knife thrower or a juggler.

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much!

Ooh, I like the idea of Rodney as a magician, I bet he'd have the scientific explanation for every single trick :D

[muccamukk]

Wow... I um... wow.

Okay. I love the colours, and how you've made the gold embroidery look all metallic and shiny. I love Teyla's expression and all her little tattoos. The fire is a really neat effect too!

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much :) I'm so glad you mentioned the gold embroidery, it took a while to make that look metallic, I'm really happy you noticed it!

[renisanz.livejournal.com]

Love the lighting and the colors. Yours are always so vibrant.

I see McKay as either a magician or ring leader, John as an escape artist, and Ronon as a knife thrower...or maybe a lion tamer.

[dunv-i.livejournal.com]

(Not what I meant to imagine, but when I read this I imagined McKay as an escape artist, and, well, the image involved a twitching mailbag and a muffled voice shouting, "Hello? Can anyone help me here?")

[2bluaeryn.livejournal.com]

This beautiful1! As always the colors are awesome and the sense of moment outstanding. I've been missing your stuff so its good to see this.

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much :) I'm really happy with the way the lighting came out, I'm glad you liked it!

[runpunkrun]

Ooh, pretty Teyla. I love her dress -- the gold and the blue and the way the pattern is echoed in her tattoos and the curl of the fire.

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! I think the little details like that are the most annoying, but also somehow the most fun to do and especially gratifying when they turn out well. Glad you liked it :)

[goss.livejournal.com]

The tendrils of fire blazing and the gold on her outfit are particularly well done. Love the movement and vibrancy!

And the warm hues contrasting with the blue just happens to be one of my favourite colour combos. So lovely. :)

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! The little things like the edges of the fire and the gold design are the most fun to do :) Glad you liked it.

[ratcreature]

This looks great. I really like the light here.

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! I was most worried about the lighting with the fire, I'm glad it turned out well :)

[siria]

Ooh, that's fabulous! I love how rich and vibrant the colours are.

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! I had a lot of fun coloring this :)

[bratfarrar]

I really like her tattoos. Are there more hidden under her (also very cool) dress?

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! I'm pretty sure there are, I was envisioning Angelina Jolie level tattooing, if not more, for fire-eater Teyla :)

[bratfarrar]

Also (apologies if I repeat what someone else has said; I currently can't read the other comments), I'd suggest either tightrope walker or trapeze artist for John, and lion tamer for Ronon. Maybe Rodney and Radek as clowns? And either Elizabeth or Woolsey as ring master.

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Ronon as lion tamer does seem to be a pretty popular idea, I highly approve. Thanks for the suggestions :)

[kitakatzz.livejournal.com]

Whoa, the colors are beautiful!

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much :)

[yappichick]

Awesome stuff! I love the coloring; it's so striking!

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much, I'm glad you liked it :)

[perspi.livejournal.com]

Oh, this is BEAUTIFUL! With the colors! And the dress! And the FIRE!!! EEEEE! I love it!

As a suggestion for the rest of the sideshow (http://perspi.livejournal.com/99275.html): John as a contortionist, Rodney as a tattooed man, Ronon as a giant with Radek as his little-person 'sidekick.' (Of course, in this one Teyla is a conjoined twin, but there's no reason Teyla and Emma can't be fire-eaters, too...)

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! I had a lot of fun coloring this one :) And thanks for the suggestions :D

[lamardeuse.livejournal.com]

Oooh, so cool. Love the colours and her outfit.

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much!

[villainny.livejournal.com]

That is absolutely gorgeous.

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much ♥

[mashimero.livejournal.com]

Wow. Amazing colours in this, and the fire too. Great job!

I'm going to go with the majority and say that John would make a good trapeze artist/tightrope walker, Rodney a magician, and Ronon a knife thrower.

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much, I'm glad you liked it :)

Yeah, John on the tightrope seems to be very much in demand, and I like the idea of Rodney as a magician. Thanks for the suggestions!

[trobadora]

Wow, this is gorgeous.

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much :)

[luckycricket-1.livejournal.com]

Wow, this is an awesome picture. :)

I can see John as a trapeze artist or the guy who shoots out of the cannon (the flying thing), Rodney a magician, Ronon as a lion tamer or a knife thrower, Radek as a clown, Elizabeth as a wirewalker. Maybe Woolsey or Caldwell as the ringmaster.

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much!

John as trapeze artist and Ronon as lion tamer seems to be a pretty popular idea, I like it too. Thanks for the suggestions :)

[mischief5.livejournal.com]

What an incredible portrait! I love the colors and the lighting. Wow!

Also: John as a trapeze artist (can't get him away from flying), Ronon as a knife thrower/juggler, Rodney as a lion tamer (brave little toaster!), Woolsey as the ringmaster, and Radek as a clown. (I remember reading somewhere that David Nykl went to clown school. He'd be a natural!)

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much!

Yes, John as trapeze artist seems to be a pretty unanimous suggestion :) Thanks for the suggestions :D

[burntcopper.livejournal.com]

ooooo. I say again, oooooooo.

and little tattoos! yay detail!

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! The little details are always the most fun to do :)

[kriadydragon.livejournal.com]

Very gorgeous :D I love the coloring, the dark and the light. So totally awesome :D

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! The lighting was the part that worried me the most when I started working on this piece, I'm really glad it works :)

[sobelle.livejournal.com]

Whoa! GORGEOUS! beautiful colors, shading... and Teyla!!

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it :)
