#60 The Enterprise Incident – (and #61 Spock’s Brain again)

Posted on November 5, 2014 | 6 comments

Here’s my latest Trek poster: The Enterprise Incident!  I know it wasn’t a perfect episode, but I loved Joanne Linville as the Romulan Commander (or as she would become later known as ‘Charvanek’.   Her performance was icy cool yet sympathetic.  ‘How rare and how beautiful’ indeed!   This seemed to work best as a Romantic Comedy genre — you know, ROM-COM?! 😉

(Be sure to read SPECIAL NOTE at the bottom of this post!)

60 The Enterprise Incident    I’m also again including here #61, Spock’s Brain, which I posted here a while back, but now it will be in proper numerical order.  A tabloid layout was the perfect vehicle for this perfectly awful episode!  Nimoy was so disillusioned by this episode that he just walked through it.

61- Spock's Brain

*SPECIAL NOTE

By the way kids, unfortunately, I am having difficulty getting the images I usually use from TrekCore to make these posters!  I am so dissapointed! About two weeks ago the message came up in the TOS gallery that the gallery was ‘currently offline. please check back soon’.  Alas, it is STILL not coming up today, and I hope it will be reinstated soon.  It’s been my source for my Trek Posters and Trek Comics alike, and although I have many images saved on my computer, I really want to finish my poster series!!! (only 20 left!!!)   Here’s hoping the TOS gallery will be back soon, (the other galleries seem to be working, naturally!)    😦

Hey TrekCore, please fix this!!

My Weekly Spock: Civic Duty

Posted on November 3, 2014 | 2 comments

Tomorrow here in the U.S. are the mid-term elections (these are just as important, if not more so than the presidential ones).   If you live here, don’t forget to vote! Here’s Leonard campaigning for George McGovern in 1972, and with a “Spock for President’ bumper sticker in ’68!  🙂

Rigoletto Looks Awfully Familiar…

Posted on October 25, 2014 | Leave a comment

This weekend, our local Opera company, Tri-Cities Opera is presenting their first opera of the season —Rigoletto.   I’d love to see it if I had the time (and money) yet, oddly, the thing that struck me immediately about its poster art was the main character.   Does anyone else see an old Leonard Nimoy under the clown makeup here? (Blue eyes notwithstanding)

Posted on October 17, 2014 | 5 comments

For this (and next) week’s fan art, I’ve found some wonderfully rich portraits of the TOS cast by artist Jason Cheeseman Mayer (jason cm) on DeviantArt. This week we have Sulu and Uhura.  I love the poses he chose and how beautiful he  makes the eyes.  More next week!sulu03med_by_jasoncm-d81fdcx

#59 The Paradise Syndrome

Posted on October 16, 2014 | 3 comments

As I finished this, I realized I had subconsciously made a couple of pyramids; or more accurately, teepees.  The three Kirks here form a triangle, and Earth Mother Miramanee forms a loving triangle around her beloved Kirok.  🙂

Of course the great triangular obelisk lurks in the background; that must have cost a pretty penny for a big prop that would only be used once!

I think Sabina Scharf was gorgeous as Miramanee, even if her skirt was inaccurately short!
