Cyfa's art challenges and other bits & bobs

this made me think of church glass art.... please make a window:)
 
Well, I was all ready to pop up a few sketches and today's efforts for the May Fan Art Challenge - "Greetings, Programs!" - but my image hosting site is playing silly buggers and not actually uploading images properly (they're there, but I can't get to them to copy a link to paste here). So, instead, here's a small sketch (you can tell it's small as that's my Eaglemoss Grissom next to it) and the finished article - Ship Girl - for last month's art challenge: "Big in Japan".

I was inspired by these moe anthropomorphised Enterprises by Mixed Blessing and Dishwasher1910 on Deviant Art.

I'll have another go at posting my TRON/TROI tomorrow (or the weekend)...
 
Thanks, @gazomg :)

Here's the stuff I couldn't show yesterday:
Trek%2BRedux%2Buniform%2Bidea.jpg

Some ideas and sketches for November/December's Star Trek Redux challenge. This is as far as I got with it - a sari-inspired uniform with a left sleeve-mounted logo/mission patch based on the European Space Agency logo, and a name/department tag on the right breast.

And here's an idea I had for this month's challenge: TRON TROI
Troi is from a TrekCore screencap from TNG "Eye of the Beholder" which I changed in MSPaint, and then ran through a watercolour filter a few times in FotoSketcher. I have a different idea, but no time to do it, so I think this will be my entry.

I've had an idea for this month's art challenge, Vacationing on the Final Frontier - and it's inspired one of the the very few good things to come from DS9's "Let He Who Is Without Sin...". Here's a hastily slapped together taster:

Haha, that's the flimsy swimming trunk Jadzia packed for Worf! Funny idea! What's that in there, though? A pamphlet by the New Essentialists Movement? Or maybe an invitation to a Risian beach party?

- Exactly! I think it's about time for Worf to don those skimpy trunks...

(And, yes, the other thing is an invitation to a Temtibi Beach Party on Risa - although, I might change the final piece's location to somewhere less obvious)
 
Gold press Latinum pants.. and you probably will sink to the bottom of the pool and NOT be a merry man at all. :p;)
 
It's raining here, so I thought I'd make a proper start on my piece for this month's vacation themed art challenge. I'm going down the cardboard cut-out route again - similar to 2017's "Summer Fun" theme - this time featuring Jadzia and Worf in "Risa Revisited". For this vacation, Jadzia has persuaded Worf to don those skimpy gold trunks that she packed for him on their first trip to Risa in "Let He Who Is Without Sin" (and not to be such a killjoy). Doctor Bashir will be joining them again, this time with someone other than Leeta (and, if I get time, two or three other beach goers).

I managed to cut out Jadzia and Worf, but as you can see from this picture, they're not stuck together yet. I'm going to add Jadzia's "spots" and score indents for Worf's crest so that (hopefully) the light catches it to make it more obvious. Oh, and I need to add the black waistband for Worf's tiny gold shorts!

Next up will be Doctor Bashir (and guest), and I'm keeping my fingers crossed for some sunshine before the end of the month (the forecast is not looking good...).
 
Don't forget the spots.
- Funny you should say that, Finn - I was about to stick down Jadzia's swimsuit and hair when I realised I hadn't done her spots! :rommie: I could have done them afterwards, but it would have been a lot more awkward.

looking forward to seeing the finished job
- Well, Jadzia and Worf are finished now - I just need to cut out the rest of them and get down to the beach!

Thanks, Santaman :)

I'm working on Bashir & Garak, but I've drawn a blank as to what Garak might wear to the beach. As you can see, I've dressed Julian in his Risa outfit (just like Jadzia & Worf are in theirs), but I just can't imagine Garak in bathing gear other than a red & white striped, prudish Victorian full bodysuit (maybe showing a little ankle) :cardie: :lol: . In my sketch, he's wearing knee-length, hibiscus patterned board shorts, but I just don't see Garak choosing to put them on, so if any of you have any ideas/suggestions, they'd be more than welcome - thank you!

Exactly! Thank you, @Santaman :bolian: With that in mind, I'm sticking with the Victorian/Edwardian cover-yourself-up style, but rather than the ridiculous red & white stripes, I'm going with a dark blue sailor-type look with a collar/shoulders cut to that quintessentially Cardassian physiology.
At least, that's what I'm hoping for. To be honest, Garak & Bashir will be in the background somewhat, so I doubt anyone will really be able to tell what they're wearing :rommie:
