USSBurritoTruck@startrek.website 5 weeks agoOctober 9 Prompt - Diplomatic Incident
“It’s a finger trap!” When I was a kid, I thought the end of “The Last Outpost”, where Riker requests permission to beam a crate of Chinese finger puzzles over to the Ferengi starship was pretty funny. In the hindsight of adulthood, it’s pretty silly to think that the Ferengi, even TNG Ferengi, would be so flummoxed by some woven paper cylinders, but it’s still fun to think that there’s a D’Kora-class marauder out there full of Ferengi out for revenge against the Enterprise over such a simple thing.

October 10 Prompt - Shuttlecraft

Let’s call this one a work in progress. I decided that the prompt would be a good opportunity to make an updated space burrito truck for my user icon. However it’s game night, so I was drawing in between turns of Dune: Imperium, and thus only got the bare bones done. I will definitely be revisiting this to finish it up.
Also, going out of town for Thanksgiving – or as we here in Canada call it, Canadian Thanksgiving – and I’ll have limited internet access, so I probably will have to post the next handful all at once upon returning to civilization.

October 15 Prompt - Red Alert
Image
For this prompt, I had to pay tribute to the best to ever do it; when Riker says, “Red alert!” you know shit is about to pop off. I’ve never actually played a Phoenix Wright game, but I do like the objection meme.

October 16 Prompt - Section 31
Image
Do you think we’re going to see William Boimler again in season five? I know not every loose end needs to be wrapped up, but coming to terms with William’s “death” was a significant moment for Boimler, so I hope they get an episode to have him confront the fact that his transporter duplicate is actually alive and working for Section 31.
Anyways, I didn’t have enough time to colour this one, but I’d like to at some point.

October 17 Prompt - Other Trek Crossover
Image
My favourite Trek comic is The Q Conflict, which featured the crews of TOS, TNG, DS9, and VOY pulled into a squabble between Q and other omnipotent(ish) beings. This was inspired by one of the covers, featuring the *Enterprise, Enterprise D, Defiant, and Voyager. I would love a sequel featuring some other Trek crews, especially the Disco, LDecks, and PIC season 1&2 crews.
