BlackTezca's 16th Trial: An Artsy Geeky Amazon Defends the Universe!

[starpuck]

She's experience the same 7 Deadly Sins blueballs that I got last Friday.   Netflix made a bad decision on its phrasing.    OVA mini-series would have been a better route...  Dumb buggers!

 

Nice work over the weekend!   Can't wait to see Red!!

Yeah what she said.  If my home computer wasn't being so fucking difficult with gifs last night, it would've been more obvious.  Netflix decided to rip us off in a sense :/  I was not amused...especially since that bloody miniseries had it's own name!  Ah well...

 

Still waiting for Pride...

Day 08

 

Keith is hotblooded fighter with strength and agility to boot!

Day 08 Details: 01/04 Workouts!  Kickboxing workout yesterday!  Leg kicks...ow!  Didn't do another workout since I spent most of the time afterwards cleaning...and let me tell you, vacuuming stairs...is a workout!  Ouch!

 

Hunk knows how to eat to be the post heavy support he can be!

Day 08 Details: 01/05 protein and less sugar days! 118g protein and 57g sugar!  All within expected parameters!

 

Lance is one social butterfly of a sharpshooter!

Day 08 Details: 01/04 social days! Left comments and followed up on a few threads!  Nice!

 

Pidge is a gadgeteering hacking genius with a penchant for creativity!

Day 08 Details: 00/04 arting days! Didn't do much last night.  I shall work on her tonight!

 

Shiro has had it rough and really needs to recover!

Day 06 Details: 05/14 relaxing days! Holiday yesterday so no work included!

 

Todays' Plan: Probably a rest day since I did a lot Sunday and yesterday.  Maybe just stretch though still not sure about skipping Muay Thai or Muay Thai Fundamentals.  Will definitely be working on Red since I am SO CLOSE with her and she is looking great and I love the background...we'll see!  Also still need to finish cleaning up which is another argument for resting today.  I'll work on my Week 1 summary...right after this!

 

Peace!

 

[BlackTezca]

Week 1 Summary!!!

 

First week complete!  Woot!  Let's add this up!

 

Keith is hotblooded fighter with strength and agility to boot!

Results: 05/04 Workouts!  Woo!!  Nice hard workouts to make for an awesome Red Paladin!

Week 1 Grade:  A

Hunk knows how to eat to be the post heavy support he can be!

Results: 06/05 last week!  Less sugar is good!  More protein is good!  All is excellent here!

Week 1 Grade:  A

Lance is one social butterfly of a sharpshooter!

Results: 05/04 last week! I am being social!  I am leaving gifts of gifs!  Gonna try and keep this up!

Week 1 Grade:  A

 

Pidge is a gadgeteering hacking genius with a penchant for creativity!

Results: 04/04 arting days! Worked a lot on a digital piece at a decent pace!  Still need to finish her though!

Week 1 Grade:   A

 

Shiro has had it rough and really needs to recover!

Results: 05/14 realxing days! Successful not working too hard!  Having a holiday and having a vacation come up really helps!

Week 1 Grade:  A

 

EXCELLENT WEEK 1 with strong results!  I am keeping up my challenge pace and I hope to continue this trend of massive awesome super grades of...!!!

Week 1 Final Grade: A

Pretty pleased with myself this week!  I have satisfied all the paladins and I don't really have much of a complaint!  I'm very happy that I have that Shiro quest cause I am feeling less stressed and tired overall, so it's 'easy' but extraordinarily helpful!  Pidge is coming along well and I am keeping up with the forums thanks to Lance!  Everyone else is staying the course!

 

Since it's vacation holiday coming up and yesterday was a holiday, Shiro should be pretty easy going this week.  Keith should also be easy since I already got a good start and should be able to workout tomorrow and Thursday, maybe Friday morning, and then pretty much skiing Sunday.  Lance shouldn't too bad since I also got a good start and will be commenting today, tomorrow, and Thursday.  Next week maybe a challenge since I'll be out, but I'll also have my laptop with me, so I could always check in quickly.

 

Trouble spots is Hunk and Pidge quests. Pidge is gonna be a bit of a loss unless I make up for yesterday pretty much on the remaining days this week (today, tomorrow, Thursday, and Friday).  I hope I am able to do so but I can accept a B on her since Friday will be pretty rough (unless we decide to bring some models to paint on the vacation...that could be a good idea).  Hunk...it's my birthday.  And I'm on vacation...AND my mom and stepdad are in town which makes things THAT MUCH HARDER...Tomorrow is a loss cause birthday.  Straight up honest about that.  But we'll see what other day maybe sacrificed to try and keep an A here this week.  Who knows.  I may just cut losses and aim for a solid B.  Stupid cake and cocktails.

 

Good luck with Week 2!  Stay strong!

 

 

[BlackTezca]

Day 09

 

Keith is hotblooded fighter with strength and agility to boot!

Day 09 Details: 01/04 Workouts! No workouts yesterday; just walking and cleaning!  Got a lot cleaned up so hopefully I can relax today!

 

Hunk knows how to eat to be the post heavy support he can be!

Day 09 Details: 01/05 protein and less sugar days! Wow...I failed yesterday on sugar.  Only 7 grams over but still, a deal is a deal.  And today is a loss...I'm gonna predict a B here this week...blah!  I made my protein goal and I didn't eat too badly yesterday but I had a little too much fruit.  Ah well.

 

Lance is one social butterfly of a sharpshooter!

Day 09 Details: 02/04 social days! Still did good here though!  Yay!

 

Pidge is a gadgeteering hacking genius with a penchant for creativity!

Day 09 Details: 01/04 arting days! BAM!!! RED IS COMPLETE!

I love how she turned out.  I'm really pleased with my shading here and the dream like quality of this image.  I shall pat myself vigorously on the bad!

 

I also worked on model painting yesterday too!

 

Shiro has had it rough and really needs to recover!

Day 09 Details: 06/14 relaxing days! Cut it close yesterday but still made it out at 8 hours!  

 

Todays' Plan: Did my upper body and kickboxing plus HIIT workout this morning before work!  I'll be pretty busy today but I hope to get some painting done today.  Will definitely be leaving early and will try to not have too much sugar?  We'll see!  Wish me luck!

Girl you already activated my partic-

Day 10 Details: 02/04 Workouts! Kickboxing and Upper Body yesterday with some HIIT.  Still keeping Keith up!

 

Hunk knows how to eat to be the post heavy support he can be!

Day 10 Details: 01/05 protein and less sugar days! I...ate and drank a lot and a lot what I ate and drank was sweet.  Yesterday was an awesome 30th birthday and I celebrated it as such!  So yeah!  Hoping to do a little better today and get my protein going and limit my sugar just a tad.

Day 10 Details: 07/14 relaxing days! Left work early to get a new phone and when I did work from home it was only for a little bit.  Yay! 

 

Todays' Plan: I will do a leg routine some today and I may go to Muay Thai Fundamentals with my mom at 5:15.  It's the 'Intro' class so she may have fun and it'll get me a bit of a workout too.  I shall be working from home today due to...well recovery from celebrations and also the weather is not gonna be great so I rather be home.  From here I can work on some art and troll the forums a little bit and it'll be from the comfort of the office couch.  Yay!

 

See ya folks!

 

[BlackTezca]

Also!  While I may have ate and drank like a massive, happy, asshole, I also got a new bike!  So on lovely beautiful weather, we can get active!   Wee!!

Shiro has had it rough and really needs to recover!

Day 11 Details: 07/14 relaxing days! I did do more work than planned yesterday since I wanted to finish something before vacation so yeah I will take the loss here.  But I should be good other days!

 

Todays' Plan: I already did my for today by finishing a piece that I have been putting off for a while!  I shall post it tomorrow and keep ya'll in suspense!  I shall be relaxing today and while I may not do a work out I'll do my best to eat better, even with the cake in the new future.  Ah well!

Hunk knows how to eat to be the post heavy support he can be!

Day 12 Details: 03/05 protein and less sugar days! Barely made it!  132g protein and 58g sugar (out of 63g sugar since I was running around).  Oof, this will make things a little easier since I managed this even with cake.  I'll take it!

Shiro has had it rough and really needs to recover!

Day 12 Details: 08/14 relaxing days! Relaxed today!  Hoping to stay on track here!

 

Todays' Plan: More like tomorrow since it's almost just 1 am here, but I plan on doing a short workout before we head up to the mountains and since I have my art done, maybe there is no need to do any arting!  I am bringing paints and models so I can keep up my art next week as well.  The workout I planned will be short and not super hard but it'll keep me perked up and since I'll e in the mountains, maybe we can walk around for a bit too!  Not sure how food will be, maybe not great...we'll see!

 

Peace my nerd peeps!!

 

[starpuck]

Nice work BT!   

LOL - when I read heading up into the mountains, my brain read that as a hike.   And when you said bringing paints and models, I thought... well, okay, paints maybe, a small travel set to do landscapes from the peak, but models?  Is she crazy!?

 

Then I realized you are just ya know 'going to the mountains', as in like, that region, and stuff.   *blush*

 

I love really studying your shading btw!  I feel like it really helps me push harder on mine, so thanks for continuing to share all this lovely art.  <3

Hahaha indeed!  Yeah we're staying up in the mountains for skiing and brought some models for painting when I have some downtime.  Should be awesome!

[Kishi]

 Thanks for stopping by my thread. I appreciate it.

 

And hey, look at you! Looks like your challenge has been going well over here. It would appear that your dietary fears have been dealt with, and you've managed to keep on skiing. I wouldn't have thought bringing models along would be a thing to do on this kind of trip, but it sounds like you're still having fun doing that too, which is awesome.

 

Groove! Keep on going!

[starpuck]

Great updates here!     Man your vacation sounds amazing.   I haven't skied in forever, and even then it was bunny hills at a place in Wisconsin.   I suppose I wouldn't be opposed to trying it again ... maybe.   Oh but the cold!  LOL.

 

But yeah, vacation + eating your proteins and stuff still?   Hard core awesome that.  If you want, I can cover your summary for you here!

WEEK 2 SUMMARY - I am BlackTezca, therefore, my summary is:

 

 

 

     Keep soaking up them R&R vibes!

[BlackTezca]

Week 2 Summary!!!

 

Second week is complete and it was a little bit on the rough side thanks to vacation!  However it was also pretty successful!  Let's see how!

 

Keith is hotblooded fighter with strength and agility to boot!

Results: 05/04 Workouts!  Skiing, tubing, strength, kickboxing all that made for a successful week on this quest!

Week 2 Grade:  A

Hunk knows how to eat to be the post heavy support he can be!

Results: 04/05 last week!  Not as great here.  Vacation and Birthday will do that to you.  But it's not all bad!  I still managed to get by most days by the skin of my teeth...so hurray!

Week 2 Grade:  B

Lance is one social butterfly of a sharpshooter!

Results: 05/04 last week! Now this has been going very well!  Still going strong even on vacation :D.  Very happy here!

Week 2 Grade:  A

 

Pidge is a gadgeteering hacking genius with a penchant for creativity!

Results: 04/04 arting days! All the art has been done!  And mostly digital too!

Week 2 Grade:   A

 

Shiro has had it rough and really needs to recover!

Results: 08/14 relaxing days! Hah!  I missed a day here where I definitely did not quit until several hours after my allotted 8.  Yeesh.  I need to keep this up or else I will lose an A here!  Noooo!!!

Week 2 Grade:  A

 

Decent Week 2 completed!  I had a great birthday vacation (so many lovely gifts and awesome company) and I had a fun time keeping this challenge up even with the issues and risks here!  I think it's safe to say I have a lovely grade of...

 

Week 2 Final Grade: A

Pretty much predicted what was gonna slip this past week.  So many cocktails, so much cake.  So awesome and yummy.  However I didn't expect to get caught up with work one day before my vacation.  I should have expected this but I wanted to complete something so much that I couldn't help but get caught up in it until it was done.  So blah!  Poor Shiro...never getting a break.  Hunk was gonna be a miss as well (like I mentioned, I knew that) but at least the other paladins helped back them up!  So for both Shiro and Hunk, the goal is continue to do well this week and make sure I am eating healthy and not overworking!

 

Lance is still going strong which is awesome, and Keith is my usual reliable hothead!  So no concerns during this last half of the week with them.  Pidge was a little concerning for this week, but I have started a new image for this week and I can do some model painting!  Hurray!  Now just to keep up Hunk and not get bogged down with work.  We'll see!  Let's hope for a good remainder of Week 3!

 

[Kishi]

You know, in thinking about it, Voltron's actually a pretty good metaphor for the human body. Everything works together, and when one part doesn't do so well, the other parts try to compensate to take care of it.

 

I wouldn't have really seen that except for your challenge, which is where various parts of it seem to work to prop the whole thing up. It makes sense in my head, at least. (Lots of things tend to make sense there that really shouldn't). That's really cool. I'm glad to see that things going right in one place are carrying over to other places too.

Happy to stop by and wish an awesome sagely monk a happiest of birthdays

 

Yes it is going well so fair although...I brought the models to paint and yet did not paint them over my vacation!  Turns out having my mom and stepdad in town to explore the mountains kept me very busy!  Who knew!

It was awesome...but yes, quite cold!  Glad to be back where it's slightly warmer and already I have another ski trip planned!!  Cause one day is not enough!

 

LOL!  It was almost all As!  Almost!  Sadly had a few things not go completely to plan but I covered them and will be trying to keep strong this week!!!

Day 16 &17

 

Keith is hotblooded fighter with strength and agility to boot!

Day 16 & 17 Details: 02/04 Workouts! Leg workout yesterday!  My legs do feel it too!  Nice!  Glad to have this done and get my workout complete for yesterday!  Hurray!

 

Hunk knows how to eat to be the post heavy support he can be!

Day 16 & 17 Details: 02/05 protein and less sugar days! 121g protein and 57g sugar! Sugar was close, but knocked it out of the park with protein!! Yay!

 

Lance is one social butterfly of a sharpshooter! 

Day 16 & 17 Details: 02/04 social days! So happy to peak on threads again!  It helps me stay motivated!  Need to do this more often!

 

Pidge is a gadgeteering hacking genius with a penchant for creativity!

Day 16 & 17 Details: 01/04 arting days! Created a new image for this week!  It was a quick kinda sketch that I wanted to do for a while.  Here is my bad bitch, Ira Dante, aka Wrath:

I like how she came out even though I needed some posing help.  I'm planning on fixing the fist a bit as well.  But damn she looks intimidating and I am planning on a few more pieces kinda a long the same vein, especially Lust coming up!  Unless anyone has other ideas for me to try and draw out!  Let me know!

 

Shiro has had it rough and really needs to recover!

Day 16 & 17 Details: 08/14 relaxing days! Though we came back yesterday, still technically on vacation!

 

Todays' Plan: Well I am back to work!  Thus I need to get back to the grind!  Hoping to finish off this week strong and that means doing an upper body workout today after getting my cat Gigi from boarding and doing some shopping.  After that, I shall be working on the above Ira piece cause she is looking so cool.  I like how intimidating and cruel she looks!  But I also hope she looks attractive in a way.  Anywho that is my plan for today!  Wish me luck back in the real world!

 

Till next time!

Hehe that is a good point!  It does make sense to see it that way and it's interesting how topical Voltron is when it comes to these challenges :D.  Nice connection!

Day 18

Keith is hotblooded fighter with strength and agility to boot!

Day 18 Details: 03/04 Workouts! Heavy upper body work yesterday!  My shoulders feel it!  Really good workout with some nice yoga stretching at the end!

 

Hunk knows how to eat to be the post heavy support he can be!

Day 18 Details: 03/05 protein and less sugar days! 131g protein and 20g sugar!! Wooo!!!  Did very well yesterday on this!

 

Lance is one social butterfly of a sharpshooter! 

Day 18 Details: 03/04 social days! I may build up on this next challenge by making a quest follow new recruits and offer encouragement cause so far this is going very well also!!

 

Pidge is a gadgeteering hacking genius with a penchant for creativity!

Day 18 Details: 01/04 arting days! Wrath is coming along nicely; I have all of her outline done and I have started on flats.  Hoping to get flats done today and then work on shading.  I'm still not sure on what to do for a background...maybe an interrogation style room with lighting from above?  I do like that idea of using the concept to experiment with lighting and shading.  So maybe that as an idea.  Beyond that I am not sure.  We'll see.  I also have another idea to draw though not Lust; I'm thinking a cute image of Gluttony brushing Sloths' hair.  I dunno just got the idea and figured it may be fun to draw.  This assholes are inspiring and I found a great reference image for it:

It'll also allow me to draw Sloths' hair which is very silky and thin.  It's gonna be cute if not a little sad; Sloth is suppose to be too weak to really do much, including brush her hair and Gluttony is much better at being a caretaker than a violent gangster (If Gluttony had a bit more will, and his sister wasn't fucking terrifying, he would be a damn solid Neutral Good) and prefers to do things like that, especially for the cinnamon roll that is Sloth (she is definitely not good, but she is a True Neutral).

 

Shiro has had it rough and really needs to recover!

Day 18 Details: 09/14 relaxing days! Left work at exactly 8 hours yesterday.  Woo!!

 

Todays' Plan: I have kickboxing planned after work and I did do a rather hard leg and HIIT routine this morning, ooof.  Planning on heading home after kickboxing and working on my art as well.  Finally feels like I have a bit of a spark back since I'm getting all these ideas to try and draw and practice with.  

 

In any case!  I shall also troll the forums and also think on the theme for my next challenge.  I have an idea of doing something different and using 'Face Off', the Syfy show on Movie Makeup as a theme.  A lot of gifs I can probably use thanks to 11 seasons of make up and contests as well as using the Make Up process ('Concept Design', 'Sculpting', 'Molding', 'Application', and then 'Last Looks').  This should be fun and I can use my Battle Log to break down each step in my challenge.

 

Stay tuned!

Sorry stomach trouble interfered with vacation and birthday plans :-(  Worst timing.

 

Otherwise, you are kicking all of the butt!  As always, love your art!

This is getting boring...

 

"BT on here A-game again?"

- "Yeah, did you expect anything else"

"Nope"

- "I know, boring..."

Eh it happens.  Weak stomach!  At least all the but is being kicked and thank you :D.  I'm happy to be making so much art again!  At least until my next stumbling block

Keith is hotblooded fighter with strength and agility to boot!

Day 19 & 20 & 21 Details: 05/04 Workouts! Friday was HIIT + Legs and Kickboxing, Saturday was a double dose of Muay Thai, and Sunday was right cause man I am still sore from Saturday and Friday.  My right shoulder is no happy from the work.

Pidge is a gadgeteering hacking genius with a penchant for creativity!

Day 19 & 20 & 21 Details: 05/04 arting days! This is actually an 'Old' WIP of Wrath since I have gotten quite a bit farther in her shading, but here is what I have to post currently:

She is looking good and I am really close to getting her shading done (even if it's not in this WIP).  Here I had defined her lighting and man am I having fun with her!

 

Shiro has had it rough and really needs to recover!

Day 19 & 20 & 21 Details: 10/14 relaxing days! Doing very well here so far!  I think I'll make it!

 

Todays' Plan: Today when I get home; I'll be playing another Warhammer game with the hubs, so hopefully after that I shall be doing an upper body workout!  I was gonna do one this morning, but I didn't sleep well thanks to having three dogs in the same room (watching a large, friendly, very warm dog for a friend), so ended sleeping in.  After the workout, if I do one, I shall continue on my Ira image since she is coming along so well and is almost done!

 

I'll be leaving work early since I have an appointment (finally...a haircut!) so we'll see about making an hour of work back.  Also!  TIS THE BEGINNING OF WEEK 4!!!  I need to work on a Week 3 Summary!! Wee!!  Off I go!
