Modding the Klingons in Photoshop

[pst]

just a quick little photoshop experiment to see what the klingons would look like without their elongated, pointy heads.

no disrespect to neville page (his designs are amazing) but i found his star trek: discovery klingons far less elegant than the ones he created for star trek into darkness. so here's an effort to bring them more in line, just for fun/as an exercise in futility:

l'rell ends up looking like krall, i know. l'krall?

What about the hair?

 

[Sophie74656]

Agreed, they need hair

 

[Jadeb]

That looks better -- less like a rip of Giger's Alien -- and would probably be more comfortable for the actors.

 

[Orac]

No! They need to be MORE phallic, not less!

That’s the spitting image of my second year modern languages teacher.

Now a moustache!

gave her some gucci sunglasses too.

now she looks like melania trump with facial hair.

 

[CaptainMurdock]

A good improvement. Well done.

 

[Butters]

Looks like Tony Stark.

 

[Kor]

The overly built-up facial structure and the pallid gray complexion still leave much to be desired.

FINALLY.

A Klingon that looks AMAZING

 

[Butters]

An unconventional beauty.

Totes.

 

[ITDUDE]

FINALLY.

A Klingon that looks AMAZING

Did you mean to say FABULOUS?

 

[Groppler Zorn]

Did you mean to say FABULOUS?

Absolutely so

It’s the tash that finishes the whole look off...!

 

[guyute03]

Yeah they totally look better without the elongated heads.
Nice work.

 

[Longinus]

Better.

NOICE work!
Looks much better! The klingon make-up in DIS isn't actually too far away from an actually "good" klingon design.

Now give them Fu Manchu beards!
