Blackbird, the author of the "Maternal Instinct" fanfiction asked me to do a picture of HIS original characters set in the KP-related universe of his story. His characters are Jen Credible and Dave Seer, and were nominated for the Fannie awards a while back. Here's the pic, which I made based on sketches done by other artists at deviantart... Here's the link to the story in which they were introduced. (It's got K/S in it, and is much 'grittier' than normal KP fare, so if you're adverse, consider yerself warned...) www.fanfiction.net/s/2809863/1/Maternal_Instinct

Hm I haven't read the fic (probably will now though), but the picture looks great!

Yeah - I normally don't go for the PG+ stories myself - I prefer keepin' it in the bounds of the TV series. But the author (blackbird) liked Team Probable, and buttering someone up is a sure way to get favors....

Ummmmmm... what exactly is the story about?

Basic jist is - Drakken plans to get Kim out of the way by getting her pregnant by injecting her with her own DNA and thus 'fertilizing' her, thinking that motherhood will keep her too busy to interfere with his schemes. But he accidentally injects Shego during the fight. It's used to manuver the story into the whole K/S angle by invoking the whole 'I'm carrying my enemy's child' thing. Jen and Dave are introduced later as part of the overall plot. Somehow, demons get involved - and Jen specializes in fighting supernatural villains as opposed to your garden-variety supervillain...

The Artworks good. I like it. Kigo's not my thing but the artwork is top notch.

Just curious--did you ever finish the story?
Because I don't think you should be dissing a story that won "Best Action/Adventure" at this year's Fannies and was nominated for "Best KiGo."

For once we agree on something. *sees a pig fly by house*
Slicknick, if you can't say anything nice about other people's work, please do us all a favor and don't say anything at all.

I don't like the whole KiGo thing, but good drawing. I like the colors and how real the characters look.

A flame is never a legitimate opinion. You provided no reasons as to WHY you think the story is garbage, you simply said that it is. That's flaming.

None of those are good reasons. A story should be judged by how well it is written, not what pairing it supports.

It's my bad i should have just commented on the Art. Even though the fan fiction link was posted i did not have to comment on it. I should have stuck to the artwork.

Your view is the complete opposite of just about everybody who reads and writes fanfiction, you realize. You're not going to win here.

Can you give us kind of "Jen and Dave bio" things?

I have no interest in Kigo, so quit trying to convert those of us who don't and we won't tell you not to like it. --Erin M.

That's why I added the disclaimer at the top. If you're not into it, don't bother looking. I'm not into it myself, but I won't stop anyone who is into it from checking it out. Right now I'm doing some artwork for him as a favor, though I've made it clear that I don't do PG13 ish stuff, including KiGo. But he has tapped me to do renditions of his villain characters.....
So don't get worked up. This thread isn't meant to be a debate on the merits/nonmerits of the K/S crowd. It's about the art...

Nice art peice, looks like someone nearly was killed in a brawl with a half orc with a great axe... and got scars to brag about.
And those of you debating about KiGo, JUST BLOODY PUT IT IN PMs, TELEPHONE, OR MEET IN A BAR AND BRAWL!
