Karl Urban -- blond or brunet?

One of the things I love about the creation of Scruffy is how he looks so much older there than when he's scrubbed up fresh as a cadet.

If you just saw the screenshots, you'd think Scruffy was from the end of the movie, or the cadet stuff was a flashback.

This is what a three-day post-divorce bender gets you :)

For comparison:

:adore:

yeah i agree with that.
when i fist saw the death and disease thing i thought for sure it was years later.. :lol:

and interesting observation about the knot..


but i dont see the performance as imitiation..
more like channneling.
it was more deep and subtle then just imitation.

urban understood the soul of the character.

and some of my friends didnt know much about the movie but when they heard the i dont need a doctor i am doctor and saw him they knew it was bones.

in fact you could hear laughter and people going yeah bones the first several times i saw the movie.
 
For anyone who has TBS on their cable system, they're showing "Doom" at 10 p.m. tonight (Thursday) and 10:00 a.m. Friday. If you haven't seen it yet, it's a so-so movie (okay, probably closer to crappy), but there's lotsa Karl. :drool: He's really the best part of the movie.

Mr Johnson isn't hard to watch until he tries to act. Lucky for them Karl was on hand!
 
Hee! I love that Demotivation poster. Fun thing to wake up to in the morning. Thanks for sharing, trampledamage!

ETA: What does "being turned green" mean? I see your name is now green, but I can't find anything in the FAQs that explains it (unless I'm just missing it). Is it like another level or something similar?

It means I'm now a moderator - which basically means I have to make sure the rules aren't being broken :)

Because there are so many different forums on the BBS, each forum has a different set of moderators. M'Sharak is the main moderator for Trek XI. I'm a new moderator for the lounges (down at the bottom of the forum list!)

I get to be green everywhere, but I have no mod powers outside the forums I look after.

Thanks for the explanation, and congratulations, new moderator! :techman:

To celebrate, Scruffy cleaned up for you a bit. The results are stunning:

So, I was wondering today- how long till we get to see Mc Coy in the updated Medical Tunic?

You know, the one that'll show of Urban's nicely toned arms. :adore:


EEEE! I have a superimposed photo I found online of him in one of these (actually done pretty well, although no arms, Jeri, sorry. And the shoulders are a bit small).

But isn't he cute here? He looks like John Barrowman, I think (which is a good thing in my book).

Interesting... I made that manip back when there were still no images available of the new actors in uniform. :D Glad you like it. And yeah, I have to agree that he does look a bit like John Barrowman here.

Was that your work? Nicely done! And thanks for the link to your Deviant Art album, I'm guessing by your DA username there'll be more Karl pics, I'm looking forward to looking through them all! :techman:

You did a beautiful job on this, Captain Janeway. I LOVE this photo. It's what got me truly excited about the upcoming Star Trek movie. I had run across it a long time ago, probably not long after you posted it, but didn't bookmark where I had originally seen it. Sorry I "borrowed" it without credit, but I'm glad the rightful artist has stepped up! Thanks for sparking a lot of lovely daydreams. :adore:

Thank you very much! Yes, there should be more Karl artwork eventually and if you'd like to see everything I've done so far, you can find it all at my Karl fanart website, Urban Fantasies. You have to register to access the gallery, though. I had to do this to try and prevent most of my stuff from getting picked up by the Google and Yahoo image search engines because then people often grab my artwork without realizing that it's actually under some sort of intellectual property. :D

Awww... That is such a sweet thing to say and you just made my day! Thank you so much! :D

Okay, cool - I'll take a look this evening once the kids are asleep and I can enjoy it properly.
