Gerry Anderson's Star Trek: The Starfleet...

Very cool. The runway design, tho, reminds me more of WING COMMANDER (the movie) than it does TREK.

Well the latter you can get realistic with digital art. And the original cartoons were done manually.

In Anderson's shows the devices were as much characters as the characters. Fireball XL5 has all sorts of gizmos, such as the main cockpit worked separately as Fireball Jr. And the Thunderbirds of course. Supermarionation had drawbacks, mainly associated with character movement. Kirk is not kicking out Klingon slats as a puppet.

What I was referring to is that the character design of Anderson's work was far more deformed, big heads, garish features in the early Supermarionation shows than in the later ones where features and proportions become more realistic.

LOL. I love that description of Supermarionation
When I said doing the drawing 100% digital as opposed to physically draw I was referring to my style... Not what could be accomplished. I am a physical artist, not a digital one. That is why I've produced the image the way I did. It would seem that my digital "style" is a very animated one as you can see here:

Versus a physically drawn piece:

Very cool. The runway design, tho, reminds me more of WING COMMANDER (the movie) than it doe TREK.

Thanks, but I would not know about that, as I've only known the first game of Wing Commander. My knowledge about that universe outside of it being similarly set as another cat people versus humans ala the Nevin's Kzinti Wars.
