The holodeck is still malfunctioning.

“Look guys, I am working as fast as I can, no need to remind me every five minutes!



Finally Tom had the holodeck for himself.
Wheeee!

But on the weekend I made a console for Tuvok!

Are you eventually going to create the entire back section of the bridge?

 

[Finn]

Meesa went and did a thing.

I'd colorize that staff thing and his eyes red, and make him Sith... I bet someone out there would pay good money for it.

 

[cooleddie74]

Someone probably already has done it.

 

[Astra]

No, I have no plans for that. I'm not even sure if I will build Harry's console, since this was so much work. Poor Harry, not getting promoted in 7 years and now no console either.
I would not know where to keep a finished set. Although Triple Fiction might bring out new things, then I'll buy those.

But here is a bridge someone has built from scratch and also sickbay and the transporter room, I think it looks amazing!

I also finally finished that transporting box that I made out of a pencil sharpener. I had to add the strap.

Oh man that is clever!

 

[Astra]

Oh man that is clever!

Thanks! One morning, I lay in bed, thinking of nothing in particular, but had just watched the "Natural Law" episode and I really loved it. And suddenly I remembered this pencil sharpener and I tried it and it was the perfect size. That was a productive day.

I needed to finish it for my New Earth scene.
This week's episode on the Deltaflyer Podcast (the one with Garrett Wang and Robert Duncan McNeill) was "Resolutions" so I made these.

How do you like my set? I love it!

 

[KimMH]

Crazy good! Your landscapes are amazing!

 

[publiusr]

No wampa in that snow?

 

[Astra]

No wampa in that snow?

A what?

Crazy good! Your landscapes are amazing!

Thank you! And also now you can see why I had to finish that box, as it was needed in the New Earth pictures and also in the following Valentine's Day story:

Chakotay is on the search for some flowers for Valentine's Day. But it does not look good on this planet. He has been walking for hours.





Finally he found a place where he could plug some flowers and fill his box.



When the box was full, Chakotay was ready to go home.



















The End (?)

 

[Kai "the spy"]

A what?

Wampa. From Empire Strikes Back. Don't sweat it, not everybody needs to be a Star Wars fan, your pics are awesome just the way they are.

 

[KimMH]

The dirt on his face went exactly the direction I thought! Poor Tom!

Extra Hand Ninjas means taller Stilt Man!

Oh yeah, I've always been very impressed by the Star Wars Black Series, Marvel Legends, and DC Multiverse figures. If I ever get to a point where I have enough disposable income, I would love to start collecting them.

That's why I bought a couple of extras.

I was busy the past days, changing Maquis Chakotay into New Earth Chakotay! I have plans for another New Earth Chakotay plus two Kathryns to go with it.

Since he wore his Maquis Vest in the "Resolutions" episode it was just a matter of repaint.





I cut off the shirt collar and formed an open V neck for the other shirt:



The hands of an artist! LOL



I mixed blue and white to get the light blue shirt.



I love how the leather vest came out! I mixed three colors to get it right and then went over it with a darker brown and dry brush to bring out the seams, folds and creases better.

You need to soften the plastic by putting it into hot water:



But even so I had to cut off a bit from the plug as it did not fit through the hole.



Getting the head back on was more difficult than getting it off, I even gave myself a blister!

 

[KimMH]

Wow! That came out great! What a lot of work!
