I've had a few ref sheets in the works lately, and I got another one done today. :D Even after I decided to add her to Columba's pirate crew, I'd been stumped for a LONG while on what direction to actually take with the design in general and FINALLY I have one that I really like, especially after giving her a more harpy-ish treatment to add more variety to the many bird constellations. Pretty proud of the symbol integration on this one too, some are easier than others! She's the first I've fully completed of this group so things are bound to get tweaked later on, but this is a good start.

The name Apus means "without feet", as apparently these birds were once thought to not have any, and I thought that would fit perfectly into a double peg-leg to match the pirate theme. A bird-of-paradise could be any number of species under that name though, so I've incorporated attributes from several here, particularly the sicklebills and the various species that have those distinct tail feathers, of both the long and curly varieties. Colour wise, she predominantly resembles the ribbon-tailed astrapia.

Columba's crew isn't exactly evil per se, but they have lost their way a bit after losing their former captain and their ship. Apus loves combat, not for the sake of the outcome, but for the act of combat itself. If you were to lose your weapon during a fight with her, she'd gladly give you one of hers just to continue it! She'll also use her long talons to fight with, but only if she has no other weapons left. Hope you like her. :) ------- The constellation symbol for Apus was originally designed by Denis Moskowitz and released to the public domain.

Rough WIP from March 17th, 2024

whoops guess you're getting a rough design for Apus tonight too lol

The name Apus means "without feet", as apparently these birds were once thought to not have any, and I thought that would fit perfectly into a double peg-leg to match the pirate theme she's got. A bird-of-paradise could be any number of species under that name though, so I've incorporated attributes from several here, particularly the sicklebills and the various species that have those distinct tail feathers, of both the long and curly varieties. I may give her an actual sickle as a secondary weapon too, we'll see!

Even after I decided to add her to Columba's crew, I'd been stumped for a LONG while on what direction to take with the design in general and FINALLY I have one that I really like, especially after giving her the more harpy-ish treatment like Grus's current sketch. Pretty proud of the symbol integration on this one so far too, some are easier than others!

Di Lung in Courage the Cowardly Dog is highkey the only time in history where an extremely offensive caricature actually has been a writer/artist just making fun of himself and putting himself into the cartoon he's making.

Which is funny because whenever I think 'offensive racial stereotype from childhood show', he comes to mind but, NOPE. Tim Chi Ly just really loved to play up his own tackyness for his friends and audience, like a Chinese Boomhauer.

The anti-Apu/Toshiaki.

The Simpsons Ultimate Showdown!

Round 1: HOMER SIMPSON VS DR. JULIUS HIBBERT

Homer Simpson TidBit: On May 30, 2003, Homer was made an honorary citizen of Winnipeg, Canada, in recognition of Matt Groening's father Homer Groening, who is believed to be from the Manitoba capital.

Dr. Hibbert TidBit: "The Problem with Apu" initiative up ahead; Harry Shearer, the original voice-actor of Dr. Hibbert replaced in 2021 by Kevin Michael Richardson, criticized the decision of the producers of The Simpsons to select voice-actors basing merely on their skin-color and of the characters they have to portray, describing it as a form of racial segregation and in total contrast to what an actor or voice-actor is supposed to do and be. This decision was criticized even in Japan by mangaka and politician Ken Akamatsu known for his anti-censorship and pro-freedom of artistic and creative expression stances and campaign, describing it as a giant step backward for humanity. Harry Shearer originally didn't want to stop voicing Dr. Hibbert, but was told by his employer that he had to hand over the role. (ripped from wiki again, I need to do 128 of these things and this is hella interesting)

Sharmila Tagore: A Trailblazer in Indian Cinema and Beyond

Reflecting on the timeless beauty and talent of Indian cinema, a name that has withstood and surpassed the test of time is Sharmila Tagore. More than just being the mother of a Bollywood star, Saif Ali Khan, she has established her merit as a legendary actress, reaching the pinnacle of success both in Bollywood and Bengali cinema.

Renowned for her ageless charm and unparalleled acting prowess, Sharmila Tagore's journey goes beyond the silver screen to her roles as a mother, wife, and humanitarian.

Kerala-born Beauty with Bengali Allure

Sharmila Tagore was born in a Bengali family on December 8, 1944, in Hyderabad, India. Although born and brought up in Hyderabad, Sharmila's roots lay in the enriched culture of Bengal, which significantly influenced her artistic journey. This Bengali beauty, with her striking features and a distinct flair for acting, carved a niche for herself in the cinematic landscape of India.

A Protege of Satayjit Ray

Tagore made her acting debut at the tender age of 13 in the iconic 1959 Bengali film, "Apur Sansar" (The World of Apu), directed by the legendary Satyajit Ray. The movie marked the turning point in her career as it established her as a promising, natural performer in Bengali cinema. Her collaboration with Ray over several projects helped her refine her acting skills and prepare for the diverse roles she would eventually play.

A Versatile Icon in Indian Cinema

In the mid-60s, she made her foray into Bollywood with the film "Kashmir Ki Kali". This marked the commencement of her eminent career in mainstream Indian cinema. Throughout her journey, Tagore has delivered spellbinding performances across varied spectra, cementing her position as one of the most versatile actresses of her era.

Sharmila Tagore embraced a wide range of characters, from playing the quintessential Bollywood heroine to portraying more rebellious, unconventional roles. Her performance in films such as "Aradhana," "Amar Prem," and "Daag," showcase her talent for presenting diverse facets of the female protagonist.

Trailblazer On and off-screen

Beyond her cinematic prowess, Sharmila Tagore is respected for pushing boundaries and breaking the stereotypes of her time. She was a trendsetter, credited as one of the first actresses to don a bikini on-screen, breaking the conservative code of heroine's portrayal.

Additionally, her marriage to Nawab Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi in 1969 brought together two very different worlds, making it one of the most celebrated unions, combining the allure of Bollywood and the aristocracy of cricket.

An Accomplished Humanitarian and Leader

After stepping back from full-time acting, Tagore dedicated herself to various social and humanitarian causes. She served as the chairperson of the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) from October 2004 until March 2011, bringing a fair perspective on censorship and creative freedom.

A Legacy to Celebrate

Sharmila Tagore is not just a proud mother of Saif Ali Khan, but she is a woman who has marked her journey with notable milestones. Her strength, versatility, and commitment to excellence have allowed her to leave an indelible mark on Indian cinema and society, showcasing that she is much more than just Saif Ali Khan's mother.

As we revisit her journey, we salute Sharmila Tagore's versatility and strength and celebrate the rich legacy she has bestowed on Indian cinema. Her vibrant charisma, gracious personality, and brilliant body of work continue to captivate and inspire, transcending the boundaries of time and culture.
