    Your challenge this month is to reimagine a famous picture or scene with a Trek twist. Instead of Armstrong coming down the ladder of the LEM, maybe it's a Vulcan astronaut climbing down a T'Plana-Hath-type survey ship. Or maybe the WWII "Kiss" picture with Starfleet personnel. Or even the Death Star trench run with shuttlecraft! Any famous historical or fictional picture will do. For the more 2D oriented people like myself, you could redo a famous poster like the Obama "Hope" poster, a mission patch, or *cough* an album cover. :rolleyes:

    Great idea, I also think you should provide the reference material as well.

    Agree. We'll need to see what the entry is parodying.

    If only I had the time and energy - I'm picturing the flag raising at Iwo Jima with the TOS crew and a UFP banner. :lol:

    Hmmmm...

    I have... an idea... :shifty:

    It will probably earn me death threats, but I am suddenly inspired.

    Well, if Ptrope doesn't post a poll soon, you may have your chance! :D

    I'm confused. Do we post our own art here ourselves, or was emailing it to Ptrope the correct method?

    I had one ready to upload, then I read instructions that said to email instead, and now people are posting their August art to their own threads?

    I know this is already long over but I thought I'd share this one I put on deviantart, as a Trek version of Rebel ships approaching the Death Star at Endor. http://fav.me/d82rshu
