The Professor

Name: John Tracy

Age: 27

Occupation: Professor of Astrophysics at a reputable university as well as an Astrophysicist. He has also published multiple textbooks on such topics.

Description: As the once soft-spoken middle child of the household, John has spent a large portion of his twenties building his library of knowledge and building a strong reputation for himself. Inventive and mildly eccentric, he is well known for his contributions to science alongside his acquaintance and occasional co-worker, Brains. He is currently planning to undergo a PhD and earn himself the title of Doctor. He lives far from his family, but always makes sure to know what's going on in their lives.

Relationships: Close to Alan, whom he goes to support at his competitions. Stays in contact with Virgil at times, but is often too immersed in his studies to get too close. Is single, but he isn't terribly interested in settling down with someone in the near future.

Would anyone wanna hear about an au where it was Jeff that died and international rescue wasn’t founded instead everyone keeps with there other careers

The fact that when they get bored they do a little robot fight is an absolutely amazing tracy brother fact. Adittionally canonically Alan does between 1 to 2 car races a year as long as a mission dosent get in the way

i get that the movie and reboot made John a responsible person but where all missing the opportunity to make original series John the third most caotic member, like in the og series Alan and John swap turns on five and they may be for some reasons but it's even funnier if it's because if Alan John and Gordon are all on earth together it would all be way to caotic for anyone to handle, I think people should also make John and Alan caotic space bros with the same goal and similar sense of humour.

Wnat a crossover fic where while most of the Tracy's are thinking critically Alan John and gordon are doing dumb stuff, and let's not even get on to how og scott can smell poison. Let the og boys be the most caotic people ever let them tease each outher in times of crisis.

Let Gordon splash scott when he gets out of water let the 2015 Tracy's stare on in horror as one of og boys picks something up and eats it with no hesitation just to annoy the outhers.

Give og series Alan a prosthetic leg because of the explosion when the hood invaded the island (brains is dead comic/ Thunderbirds versus the hood audio book), let him take it off and throw it at someone. Have penny pull out a gun and freak her counter parts out.

acknowledge the fact that aliens exist in the og series and that brains was almost eaten by one. Address Alan's racing career let him make funny little references to racing lingo and freak the alternate versions out or confuse the bad guys. Let Alan and John geek out about something to do with space make, the bros gang up on each outher have prank wars that Jeff is so tired of dealing with.

Thank you for reading my rant this might happen again and if anyone has something like this please direct me to it thank you.

so I was talking to nibenhu about John loving Star Trek and we decided (x) the massive nerd would totally have a uniform tucked away somewhere and oops my hand slipped…

I had a whole explanation written up about this and then it all got lost when I moved my hard drives into a new computer setup. ;a; Basically this came about from a lot of Star Trek and many chats with @lenle-g about the Thunderbirds Star Trek AU she was involved in ages ago. And, of course, how EOS would fit in.

In short, it boils down to her being an orphaned Betazoid child who stows away on the Thunderbird after they show up to investigate what happened to the ship she was on. After she’s found (and tries to stab J'onn out of fear), she ends up being taken in by J'onn as the only crewman who could help in part with her uncontrolled telepathic abilities. And, while she was only supposed to be on the ship temporarily… she bonds well enough with her half-vulcan caretaker that he ends up adopting her instead.

(Thanks to Len for the colors on the second picture <3333333333)

“… But most of all, I’m thankful for my family.”

Thiiiiis… didn’t get done as early as I wanted it to, but it’s still technically Thursday (and therefore Thanksgiving) in some parts of the US, so I won’t fuss. But I wanted to do some nice vignettes of the family having Thanksgiving together. Especially after the things that have happened in Season 2, I think they all need some family time to recuperate! I was planning on adding Kayo and Brains in the Scott picture but i just ran out of time and energy after today. But I hopefully can do a little follow up picture with them so they’re not left out <333

So here you go, Thanksgiving with the Tracys! Featuring Virgil, Grandma and MAX making the meal (with some possible off-screen help from EOS), setting the table with Gordon and Alan (sword fights with the butter knives are an extra service), EOS making sure to hold all the heavy, breakable dishes for stil-slightly-space-sick John to serve himself with (headcanon that he came down with just enough time to not be a bed-ridden blob in his room, but he’s still not very used to Earth), and of course, Scott leading the family in a toast.

It’s taken me a while to get this colored and boy it seems like almost a lifetime since I drew it back in September, but I really just felt like coloring today. I haven’t done enough with EOS’s mission uniform anyway. XD

But yeah, have some John and EOS feels to start the day with! (or end the day in my case, whoops.) Because these two are and always will be my absolute favorites (both with series-canon, pure-code EOS and my own AU synthetic humanoid codebrat EOS) and I look forward to hopefully seeing more of them this season!

“Don’t you know how you’ve changed me? Strange how I finally see

I found Home You’re my Home Stay with me.” ~Home (reprise)“ From the finale of Disney’s Beauty and the Beast (Broadway)

I know, I know, this is Virgil week and what am I doing putting up John art, but I’ve been working on this for a full week (or as much as the humidity allows) because I watched a local production of Beauty and the Beast and the song spoke to me. So I had to draw from it. I may see about coloring it (or having someone else color it, *wink wink*). But either way it was just so much fun getting to draw John and EOS in their uniforms again. <33

At the beginning of the month,John/@starman-john-tracy came down to earth for a while, handing control of Thunderbird Five to Alan/@thespacenoodle. This all went horribly awry as Alan ended up catching influenza from overexertion (and far more trips home than John ever took), leading John, Scott and EOS to mount a rescue mission for him. (And subsequently quarantine the Island.)

When John came back, I doodled up a picture of EOS giving him a hug on his return, so it only feels natural to have her saying goodbye as well. In the thread, they’ll probably still be wearing helmets (since the disease is probably still floating around the interior) but this was a much clearer picture. Call it artistic license. The background is kind of meh, but in my defense, TB5 is hard to draw.

These are so great 😂

... I don't know if anyone's made any of the Barbie posters yet...

... but this is the result of a sleepless night.

I tried my best with the captions, but I'm still not keen on all of them.

OH MY GOSH THESE ARE SO GOOD!!!

Thunderbirds are Go + Posters [2/?]

Does anyone remember that TAG variation of Twas the night before Christmas?

I can't recall who wrote it and I've searched through tumblr and can't find it.

Would much appreciate it if someone could find it. It is a very good piece and well written too

Merry Christmas to the Thunderbird Fam, love you all millions, have a lovely safe Christmas day :-)

More reboot from 2018 - boys with beards and then an older Gordo from 2016

(I think this is the one where I was experimenting with digital art, I had just got my first didgy board and was trying to do faces by using the old fashioned method of grid patterns - bit of dinosaur method but I was pretty pleased with how this turned out.)

New one for a change, I can’t think that I’ve ever seen anyone do this before, if I’m wrong I’m sure someone will tell me :-)

this was for my secret-santa last year :-)  (rebooting)

space boys - my reboot continues

REBOOT - sorry for the absence, some more of the reboot stuff  - three old cartoons

Scott baby sitting (I really meant to come back to this and finish it - meh, maybe later :-)   )

Virgil baby sitting - there was a story, something along the lines of being seen as a big brother.

Virgil baby sitting again but no-one was sure who’s lil baby ...

and Gordo, no so much baby sitting and baby rescuing - anyone who’s seen this one might remember these are my neighbours grandchildren who are huge TAG fans, I wrote them a story about them being rescued by Gordon and illustrated it for them - but it gave the nightmares

Reposting of my fan artworks, sorry nothing new yet, but I did find the story that went with this :-)

“Mom used to take us horseback riding”.

“Will you lead off Scott Love?  I think we’re ready to go at last”  Lucille called as she trotted behind the boys’ horses, leading Allie on little Sparkle.  It was a big day for Allie and a wide grin was spread across his face.  His first ride out with the big boys on his own, and although Mom would be leading his pony , he was feeling mighty big himself.   

But uncharacteristically, it was Gordon who wasn’t feeling like one of big boys at that moment. 

Every one of his brothers had been moved up a horse so that Allie could have Sparkle, the smallest of their ponies.  Mom had explained to Gordon that it was time for him to take over the pony Virgil had grown out of, Chrystal, he was more than capable, all the Tracy boys started early on horseback.  But Sparkle suddenly seemed so big to him and moved so quickly.  Sat in the saddle, high on Sparkles back, he held on tight and panicked a little.

Virgil, sat on Murphy close by was watching him carefully, “You okay Squiddy?” Virgil had been due to move up to the next biggest, a dark pony called Star, but John was too fond of her that he’d talked Virgil into taking on Scott’s much bigger horse, Murphy.  

Virgil was more than delighted, Murphy was big and powerful.  It was a massive step up from a pony to a horse but his Mom said he was a good strong kid and well up to it.  And John got to stay with his beloved Star a little longer, who’s dark dark coat was flecked with tiny white hairs and reminded him of constellations. 

As for Scott, he was very content to move up to his Grandpa’s horse, Max, a mark of trust that he had been allowed to take on the big old working horse.  Scott felt the responsibility and yes, he would lead them out of the farm for his Mom, proud that they all trusted him so.

Chrystal fidgeted suddenly, realising that they were all about to move off and Gordon yelped. 

“Steady there, Gordo,” Virgil leaned in to take Chrystal’s reins.  “Hang on Mom!”  He slid from the big horse’s saddle to stand beside Gordon, “Gordo, I promise, she’s really lovely, she’ll look after you.”

Gordon eyed him suspiciously then the pony, whose ears were flicking back and forth.

“Have you thought,” Virgil tried again, “That maybe she’s not sure about you either?” 

The smaller boy flashed another look at Chrystal’s flicking ears and shook his head a little at Virgil. “What do I do?”  He knew - he’d been taught well but panic was something new to him, he normally just ploughed into every situation without a thought of danger - Chrystal was different, she was a living breathing creature, with a mind of her own.

Virgil took his hand and placed it on her neck mimicking stroking the dappled white coat under her mane. And he looked to Gordon, “What d’ya say?”

Gordon suddenly smiled, knowing again. “Good girl Chrystal, Good girl!”  The pony tossed her head a little in response then stretched her nose round to check out Gordon’s booted foot. 

“See now you’re friends.”  Virgil smiled.

Gordon wasn’t too sure that it was enough for a solid friendship but it was a start and he patted her again. Their Mom had come round to stand her horse and Allie’s pony in front of them and nodded approvingly at the way Virgil had handled it.  

“Thank you Virg, are you okay now Gordi?”  The two boys grinned and nodded, “Okay then, if John could now stop daydreaming now please, you can lead off Scott.

Scott reached to gently tap the shoulder of John, who had been lost in the sparkling white flecks of Star’s dark coat again.  “You with us John?”   The grin John returned was all Scott needed to call, “Okay everyone let’s go!”

continuing my reposts :-)

I’m going to finish what I started months ago and repost all my artwork for TAG starting with these :-)
