Hey, this is a little bit late, but it occurs to me that it’s now October, and that means it’s also Trektober, the annual Star Trek inspired daily drawing prompt challenge.

There are three sets of prompts which can be found at: https://www.tumblr.com/trektober-challenge. The first is a set of general Trek inspired prompts. The second is Trek specific. The third set is NSFW.

I’ll be trying to participate us, and I’ll be sharing the results here. I’d like to invite anyone else interested in attempting some or all of the challenge to do so as well. Maybe spoiler tag any of the NSFW entries, though.

Happy Trektober!

    October 3 Prompt - Promotion

    Another quick one, though I’m happier with this drawing than I am yesterday’s.

    It’s kinda wack how many non-Starfleet organizations in Trek seem to focus their upward mobility primarily on the murder and supplanting of superiors. Seems like a bad system, honestly.

      October 4 Prompt - First Contact

      I’m pretty vocal about the fact that “Star Trek: First Contact” is a movie I don’t have much love for. However, I really do like the TNG episode, “First Contact”. So here’s Riker and the Malcorian nurse played by Bebe Neuwirth. Is the scene with them a bit problematic in hindsight? Yeah, it’s not great.

      I got to put a bit more time into this one, and I think it show. My original intent was to do more than just a pair of floating heads, but even though I was able to block out the extra time, and I cannot stress this enough, I am very slow. So this is what I’ve got! I like it. I like how Lanel, the Malcorian nurse, turned out more than I do Riker. I used one photo reference for both, and in hindsight I should have used a different angle for Riker.
