we were having a conversation about whether #Tron programs have hair under their helmets and whether maybe the helmet just de-rezzes to reveal the hair

and #DanShor has a gorgeous fluffcloud of curls and so the image of #Ram 's helmet popping like a popcorn kernel would just not leave me
Pencil drawing of three head-only portraits of the character Ram from Tron: 1982. In the first one, he is smiling and wearing his helmet from the movie. In the second one, the helmet is de-rezzing in an explosion effect, disintegrating into tiny bits, and his face has a surprised look. In the final one his hair has been revealed, in the very fluffy curly style that actor Dan Shor had in other films, such as Strange Behavior. His smile is wider and he's blushing a little and looks relaxed. The pictures are surrounded by a border that resembles the puffed shaped of popcorn, and the words "Popcorn Program" are curved over the central image. The artist's signature, an asterisk serving as the A in the name Aster, is in the lower right.

This was suggested by a friend

pose inspiration: The Victory of Faith (the interracial lesbian 1891 painting), oil on canvas, Saint George Hare

was originally two nude ladies, apparently martyrs about to be fed to lions

Is now Ram and Tron
Pencil drawing of Ram and Tron lying side by side in a small cell with tally marks etched all over the walls. Ram lies on his back, smiling, with a hand on Tron's thigh. Tron lies on his side with his face against Ram's neck and an arm over his shoulder. Both are in their armor except that they have removed their helmets and Ram has also removed his gauntlets and shoulder pads, all of which lie in a pile in the foreground

And here is fanart of #Tron: Aries

You know, the furry spinoff about Ram's life rerezzed as a discus throwing champion at the #Animalympics?

Anyway that's what I'm assuming it's about
Scene of Ram the Tron program seated by an energy spring, drinking out of his disc, except he is portrayed as a literal Ram with a cute sheep face, wool and curly horns

Ok I guess the art train thing reminded me that people post #Tron fanart on here so I'm gonna post a few more of mine

These sketches are all basically little jokes
Sark from Tron 1982 reimagined as a Vulcan, mainly because of his name. His cloak has a large V symbol on it like his original armor, and his hand is held up in front of that making the Vulcan greeting gesture Crom from Tron 1982 in a fighting stance, saying "you think you're gonna wipe me right out don't you?" except he has six tentacles coming out of his back, in the same arrangement as the tentacles on the character Londo Mollari played by the same actor. each tentacle is wielding a disc, but they are flat with holes, more reminiscent of Legacy and Uprising than Tron 1982. however, an open DVD box set of Babylon 5 on the floor nearby implies that he is in fact wielding the entirety of season 1. Ram, the program from Tron 1982, lighting an 8-bit menorah with his programmer Roy Kleinberg. The eight candles have Bits, as they appeared in the movie, instead of flames. Most of them are in the spheroid null-bit form, but the shamash-bit that Ram holds is in the diamond shaped Yes form, and speaks the word Yes as it touches the first candle-- which responds with its own Yes as it changes to Yes-Bit form too.

Aaa I don't know how to do an art train
But here's some of my Tron drawing
RPF (Real Program Fanart) Pencil drawing of Firefox depicted as an anthropomorphic fox in Tron armor, shooting a flaming arrow at a large blue target resembling the Ring Game in Tron 1982. A figure resembling the character Crom from that scene is hanging onto the rings for his life, but the Google logo on his butt indicates that he is actually Chrome. Words underneath say: Only one browser still fights for the Users. Headshot drawings of Tron 1982 characters: Clu, Yori, Lora, Crom, Tron, Ram. Banners underneath the faces show words. For Yori and Lora the words are just YO LO. for Clu it says: You Only Live once, that's why your life is so precious. Under Crom, Tron and Ram it reads: You're worth saving, Protect Your Future. A blue TRON 1982 Lightcycle, drawn with distorted proportions to be a penny-farthing Tron, Ram and Yori in the Twelfth Night kiss pose: both Yori and Ram hold Tron's disc over his chest; he leans to his right to kiss Ram while Yori rests her head on his shoulder
