FArF: Must. Resist. BACON!

Friday already?  It’s been a crazy couple of weeks, kids. Thanks for your patience.  Here’s a funny  Series by artist  Jessie Avarian .  Spock and the crew puzzle over the human fascination with bacon!  I bet even the Vegetarian Vulcan was tempted by its heavenly aroma! I hope he does Kirk gobbling it all up! Jessie’s whole series is available on Etsy here.

#64 ‘The Tholian Web’

Here’s my latest poster! I wonder if the cast enjoyed filming an episode that was 90% Kirk-Free?  Good drama here 🙂

FArF: Uhura by Christina Zakhozhay

Here’s a gorgeous study of our gal Uhura by Canadian artist Christina Zakhozhay.  She really captured the character’s soul here 🙂 Enjoy.

#60 “And the Children Shall Lead”

Hi All!   Now that the Trek Core TOS gallery is back on line — I was able to finish my most recent poster — And the Children Shall Lead.

It wasn’t the greatest of episodes; the producers basically wanted to  recreate the atmosphere of the  the much better Miri, but Melvin Belli? Really??  Creating the poster my first thought was how to portray the little brats darlings and a deceptively angelic approach seemed appropriate.  Note, the backdrop is actually the Friendly Angel’s robe. Meanwhile, Kirk and Sulu are freaking out, Uhura is devastated and Spock just wants to meditate himself out of there!

FArFri: Classic TOS Portraits (Part I: Sulu and Uhura) by Jason Cheeseman Mayer

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

#49 The Immunity Syndrome

As Star Trek carried on into it’s 2nd season, it began airing more stories set on board to save on it’s paltry limited budget.  Immunity Syndrome was definitely one of the better ones.  For this poster I preserved the ‘amoeba’ used in the original broadcasts.  The new CGI one is okay, but this one seemed more sinister.

#47 The Gamesters of Triskellion

I love the blue and gold graphics in Gamesters, it seemed a good place to start the artwork.  It would have been easy to make Shahna the center of attention here, (James Bond style) but I liked her better as an accent.  Also Galt has such a marvelous, angular, and imposing Darth Vader-ish form,  that his profile made a perfect focus.

Jim Kirk’s Gal-A -Day Calendar!

Made this a while back…  In reviewing Kirk’s many loves, I thought it would be fun to update his monthly calendar…

FArFri – Trek meets Wars by Robert Shane

Here’s some grand crossovers by artist Robert Shane on DeviantArt!  Of course Princess Leia would go for Captain Kirk!  Of course Uhura would go for Han Solo!  Love these!  (Could it be that Bill Shatner and Carrie Fischer have made up 😉 )

My Weekly Spock –Play it again, Spock

I always loved when we’d see a glimpse of Spock with his lyre.  It would be nice to see him with it in the next movie.  (But wait, that would mean a moment of quiet meditation and you can’t have that in a blockbuster action picture!)  Anyway, here’s Spock at his best musical self…

Sweetest scene ever!

A scene sadly cut from the original series. From Elaan of Troyus.

The Platonians were sadists, but it was nice of them to think of Spock’s musical side…
