USSBurritoTruck@startrek.website 3 weeks agoOctober 23 Prompt - Holodeck
You would think they’d figure out a way to stop accidently creating life, or, failing that, stop using the machine that accidentally creates life.
When I conceptualized this one, there were more eyes, and I was going to animate them opening and closing, but I already went way over time on this one.

October 24 Prompt - Department Rivalries
Image
Reed hates the MACOs so much.
Ran over time with this one, because there was no way I wasn’t going to watch the new LDecks episodes. Also, it was a struggle to figure out what to draw at first, because there aren’t really departmental rivalries in Trek. The Science and Engineering aren’t at trying to outdo one another. Then I remembered ENT.

October 25 Prompt - Redshirts
Image
When I saw what the prompt was, I knew I had to pay tribute to the Cerritos’ Redshirts club by drawing Casey and Jennifer. I would have included Castro and Taylor as well, but I knew I wouldn’t have enough time.
Pretty happy with how this one turned out, even though I didn’t notice just wonky Casey’s white band on his uniform is until I’d already uploaded the image.

October 26 Prompt - Artificial Gravity
Image
For a movie as good as it is, there’s a lot of faffing about in the middle of “Star Trek: The Undiscovered Country” looking for the gravity boots, and escaping from Rura Penthe.

October 27 Prompt - Shields Up
Image
I miss when when a Trek show would just got nab a bunch of props and be like, "This week the Enterprise is going to a planet where the culture developed their own Roman empire that never actually fell."
Not super happy with how this one turned out, but I’ve reached the point where looking at everything just appears to be a bunch of shapes, so I’m gonna call it done.
