Most visually appealing characters

So, who are your favorites and why? I am currently on Voyager, so maybe later will add more to the list.
Until now, for me - Spock and Dukat. Spock's face has a certain... architectural quality about it and just awes me with admiration and respect coupled with his character. Dukat on the other hand - coupled with his magnetism and mannerisms, his cardassian physique, his eyes and smile - I find irresistible.
I love the 60's action hero vibe of Kirk and the way he says the name of Spock. I like Quark's grimace with his mouth when he says "hu-mans", it's so interesting! From women I love Christine Chapel which invokes in me similar feelings as Spock, Kira is very cute especially with her nose and Uhura is just sexy.
TOS women were all beautiful!

Female guest stars Joan Collins probably. Also Arlene Martel.

I’d have to give it some thought, but Picard himself has a great look. It’s not that he’s bald, it’s that he’s got that head up there. I like his nose too. All works together well.

I like Commander Toreth as well.

Quark has a great look too.

As does the Andorian ambassador from TOS — might have been a throwaway alien, but he was very memorable.

…some that come to mind.

EDIT: oh and Kira. That nose just works for her. I don’t think I buy her without it. Same with Jadzia and the spots.
 
I could name probably over a dozen main cast from the prime universe series, but I'll just stick to some favorites:

Geordi. He looks professional, he comes across strongly as an engineer for a Starfeelt vessel, and rocked the V.I.S.O.R. and gold uniform combo. Feel apart with the awful First Contact uniforms and new eyes.

Picard. Looks like a thoughtful captain.

Spock.
 
My faves from TOS are Sherry Jackson, BarBara Luna, Leslie Parrish and Kathy Browne.
From TNG: Gates, Marina, Lycia Naff, Ashley Judd, Dey Young, Beth Toussaint. More I can't think of right off the bat.
 
Pixy haircut with Ezri did a thing for me.
I always thought B'Elanna Torres was gorgeous. Jadzia was stunning, but so was Kira. For all three it was of course a visual appeal, but mostly being strong women who stood for something.

ETA: As a teenager, Seven of Nine appealed to me for the obvious reasons B&B wanted to. After the later seasons of Voyager and Picard, it's the same as the three above. She is beautiful but her strong mannerisms and character is what made her appealing the most. Like the Torres, Jadzia and Kira.
 
Visually appealing in what way?

Visually appeal as in hot?
Okona! For that alone I wish he had been a better character and had been in more episodes. Also SNW's version of Pike. And Sisko, especially after he grew his beard and shaved his head.

Visually appealing as in a platonic sense of beautiful or interesting to look at?
Troi in most seasons (except 6) was both beautiful and frequently interesting to look at, as someone who likes costuming, I generally like the looks they created for her and the choice of colours they put her in. Same with the dresses they put Lwaxana in most of the time.
Also, pretty much any Andorian once they managed that design work in ENT. And several background/one off aliens are interesting to look at, like on DS9 you can sometimes see an alien Dabo Girl in quarks who has a Parasaurolophus-like crest with jewels embedded in it, or the Binars in TNG.
