Never seen TOS scenes...again....

Very cool. I especially like these 2.

Boy, that looks bad. Not the photoshop but the mustache. Maybe more of a Walt Disney type mustache might work, something thinner and not so broad with a little grey in it.

The mustache was from an existing Scotty image pretty much as-is, just had some gray streaks in it. I toned down the gray (which now looks like slight reflections on the hairs), because there's no gray on his head.

At first I didn't like it, but after a while I'm finding it OK. Maybe it's just not being used to seeing a mustache on him during TOS. Part of it is also his hair style. The B&W one that NCC-1701 did looks the best, IMHO.

^ Like oil and water...


I never liked the screens and consoles on Space: 1999. The main viewer looks like some kind of child's board game. And those silly checkerboard patterns. What were they thinking? So, mixing the characters... ugg, just doesn't feel right.

KIRK: Relax Gary. Ever since they canceled that mission out of the Galaxy you been on edge.

MITCHELL: I just feel like I dodged a bullet or something. ​

I wish I could do this stuff...

Like I suggested earlier, how about putting a TMP mustache on TOS scotty.

Does this count?

In Simpson's Comic Book Guy voice: What about that rare episode of Star Trek Phase II where Lorne Greene guest starred dressed as William Adama from BSG?

^^Hey I think I found from photo stills from that rare episode!

I was catching up on my reading today and came across this innocent posting, which brought me back (again) to one of my favorite themes...Captain Spock.

A few years ago I put together these images of Spock in command...

... and determined that Spock would most likely have an unfortunate tendency to micromanage. Strangely enough, when revisiting the idea it is hard not to reach the same conclusion.

 

[Harry]

It's strange to see Spock out of his blue uniform. Spock would really need McCoy at his side as Captain, as we already saw in "Galileo Seven". Given enough time, Spock would probably have made a fine captain, but he would've definitely needed to learn how to deal with the crew's (and his own) emotions.

 

[Michael]

I especially like that one, Shaw. It's really seamless.

 

[Praetor]

I agree. The reflection the nav panel is very well done, too.

 

[Shaw]

Thanks guys!

Unfortunately I was running short on time and didn't fix DeSalle's reflection (and yet I had time to promote Scotty ).

 

[Praetor]

Well, I didn't notice DeSalle until you mentioned it, and obviously Scotty is Spock's XO.

 

[Shaw]

There... fixed.

Yeah, Scotty is XO, DeSalle has switched to a red uniform... and Kirk is floating in a shiny spacesuit between dimensions.

 

[Praetor]

Nice!

^ Now that is something I approve of: Captain Chekov!

Very well done, Gary. You found an image with just the right expression of Walter Koenig.

 

[Praetor]

That blew my mind for a minute!

Well done.

 

[Gary7]

Excellent work, Shaw! I also like that one of Captain Spock leaning over the control panel. This was from Squire of Gothos, right? Do you still have the original screen capture? It would be interesting to see the before/after.


Thanks for the nods, NCC-1701 & Praetor. I got lucky on the image, which made it easy--perfect lighting and facial expression. I just scaled, rotated slightly, trimmed, a little blur, and that was pretty much it. Ironically, the face of Chekov came from the original photo used for this one... I'd completely forgotten about the face that Davy Jones replaced. So, I'm searching around for a while, finally come across it in Spectre of the Gun, and felt like kicking myself--it was right in front of me all the time.
