FArFri: The Gorn Captain by nightwing1975

Here’s a really nice rendering of The Gorn by artist nightwing 1975. Some day I’m going to draw my own renderings of Trek aliens!

Made this from my screen caps of Stoney Burke. 🙂  A little choppy but I don’t think anyone will mind!

Wideo Wednesday: A little David Bowie (with a side of Queen)

I bought a greatest hits of David Bowie collection the other week.  Here’s a few cuts from one of my favorite artists:

(And a classic mix of Bowie and Queen – Sad that Freddie and David didn’t make an actual video of ‘Under Pressure’ but this is a great mash up of Queen performing at Live Aid in 1985 and Bowie singing it with Queen at the tribute concert in 1992:

Star Trek Poster #61 “Spock’s Brain”

Jumping ahead 20 episodes here; I had a great idea for a Trek poster when I woke up on Sunday, didn’t write it down, but fortunately remembered it later in the day!   However, I’m afraid Spock’s Brain was such an awful episode that I couldn’t glorify it with a movie poster; but a Murdoch-style  tabloid worked just fine!  Couldn’t wait 20 posters to share it with you, enjoy! Be sure to click on it for full size so you can read all that’s fit to print! (and 2 points if you recognize the “after” in the lower right!)61- Spock's Brain

 

 

My Weekly Spock: Elementary My Dear Spock…

MrP_SpockHolmesTaken around the time of I Am Not Spock‘s release, here’s Leonard in his most logical stage role as Sherlock Holmes.   I would have loved to have seen him in this!

How many here have a tattered copy of I Am Not Spock?  Still got mine. And did any of you see him as Sherlock?

FArFri: “Use Your Logic”

Here’s today’s Fan Art — Spock does a funny homage to SpongeBob Squarepants (“Imaaaginaaaation!”) in Use Your Logic by Heiliger Shadofax on DeviantArt.   McCoy is appropriately flummoxed!

My Weekly Spock: Nimoy on ‘Stoney Burke’

This week for you Nimoy viewing pleasure, I came across a rare and nearly forgotten old series called Stoney Burke.  It stars Jack Lord as the title character; a rodeo rider with a heart of gold long before his Hawaii 5-0 days:  In this episode, titled ‘Fight Night’.  The charity rodeo Stoney is set to ride in is threatened by a prize fight the same night.  The managers of the prize fighter, Art Paxton, send thugs to the rodeo to keep their fight from losing customers. And who is this prize fighter they’re so willing to beat people up for? Well, young, fit, Leonard Nimoy, of course.  (and the director takes full advantage of the young actor’s physique)

You can see the whole episode here.  Nimoy appears around 36 minutes in- draped under a sheet  ala Frankenstein’s monster!

 

 

 

FArFri — Starlight by Kumagorochan

Sorry I’m a bit late this week with the Fan Art — Had a busy week with a day trip to NYC on Tuesday!  BTW, according to my WordPress account here- this is my 700th post!

Anyway, here’s a gorgeous Kirk study by Swedish artist Kumagorochan “Starlight”  — Just gorgeous.
