My Fan Art (TOS and Discovery, mostly)

I have never posted much here, but I play often enough and such that I guess I probably should once in a while.

One of my earliest memories is from when I was a weird little kid who insisted on a Spock haircut and my big brother sat me down to watch Wrath of Khan when it came out on VHS and he consoled me and assured me that the next movie was already coming out and it was called The Search for Spock. Not exactly surprising I'm still a huge nerd for this.

I'll post from newest to oldest. First is a design I did for a local geek group I'm involved with (and also because I just wanted to) that has some Discovery season one spoilers.

Final-Web-2.jpg

Each was drawn individually at 6"x8" on bristol with brush-pen and then scanned, cleaned up, and colored.

Next up is a portrait of Spock I did for my niece for Christmas last year ("YOU OWE ME A SPOCK," she told me). 8"*10" on bristol with India ink via brush and pen.

Spock.jpg

Next up is Uhura from a few years ago. I had Nichelle Nichols sign the original and it will always be a prized possession. I was selling prints and she asked for one, and then made me sign it. I maybe cried.

(I definitely cried)

Also 8"*10" on bristol with India ink via brush and pen.

Uhura.jpg

A slightly older piece of Kirk from when I was still tinkering with this portraiture style. 2013, 8"*10" bristol with India ink via brush and pen.

Kirk-Web.jpg

And just because, a silly sketch from last year. Maybe 3"*5" or so in my notebook. TUVIX!!

    Impressive! (On the other hand, I can't draw a stick figure without a ruler, so...)

    I love the Ash/Voq split and the askew angle on Lorca.​​

    Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
    JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

    That's really good work. The Spock and Uhura impress me the most, probably also due to personal and emotional attachment.

    But I also like the Discovery panels. That's a unique approach. I had to chuckle seeing you even ccaught Kirk's 'popper lock' on the tribble piece xD

    Very well done! =D I used to dabble a bit back in the day, but nothing quite as good as what you have here. Respect!

    Wish I had that kind of skill...

    I once sketched out a concept of an outfit for a fanfic I wrote, not really paying much attention to the body due to the fact it was for the outfit, and got nit picked on how thick the legs were. I made concept art of how I saw Sailor Earth's outfit in my Stargate SG-1 crossover Sierra Echo. Not doing full body character art!
