I don't know if I'm just lucky or perhaps Star Trek has just the nicest fans ever but this commission was - again - such a lovely experience! This time @hobbithabits was the client and wanted an age swapped version of Bashirs and Garaks first meeting based on this fic: https://archiveofourown.org/works/54883567 (Past Prologue (Introductions and Intrigue)) Older Bashir was no problem, I've already drawn him and we got lots of beautiful pics of Sid. But younger Garak was a fun challenge. And I couldn't resist giving him Andys fluffy choir boy hair >:D. Commissions still open <3
New OC, Star Trek this time! Her name is Yaana Jakyal and she's Bajoran. I took the design of the ears from @c-rowlesdraws 's amazing designs they're so cute and inspiring! :)
I don’t listen to podcasts, but I would if these three had one. Honestly would love to have a girls brunch with them. Bitching with these three would heal me of everything.
Doing Sisko in the style of an Eastern Orthodox Icon painting because recent events have got me thinking about that type of thing
Details under the cut
I log on to post sad garashir wip and leave
"Have you ever heard of the phrase 'Keeping your cards close to your chest'?"
"Why no! Do enlighten me."
"It's a Human idiom. It refers to what one does in a game of Poker, when they want to keep their cards secret, they play them close to their chest so no one else can see the hand they possess."
"Ah, and it's some kind of metaphor for hiding the truth, I take it?"
"And how did you come to the conclusion I was talking of that my dear Mister Garak?"
"My dear doctor, was there ever such a time we didn't discuss this?"
4got to post this!
Warmup sketches in between animation for the TL
You know she had to do it to ‘em (by “them” I mean “the Teplans,” and by “it” I of course mean “virus-bomb their homeworld with super-HIV as punishment for rebellion, and also because it’s kinda funny”). She’s a real sweetheart, folks.
my new favorite timelines discourse is the recent critiques on the forums about this week’s new artwork, like how the diseased changeling founder’s flakes just don’t look quite flakey enough
for me? it was s2e8 “necessary evil”. that’s when I knew deep space 9 was going to be different.
star trek has done murder mystery episodes before– yanno they’re fun, they’re a great format for a well paced forty five minutes where we can learn more about our characters and get some cheeky twists along the way.
“necessary evil” elevates that trope by setting the mystery on terok nor. it’s literally our first flashback look at the ugly political past of the space station. as an audience we’ve been learning to love and trust the warm vibes of the show’s setting– seeing a version of this place that’s dystopian, that’s horrific, that nonetheless features so many of the characters we know? it feels so fuckin visceral.
I will never forget the final twist in this episode. I will never forget learning alongside Odo what it really means for people to make the choices they must in the face of dehumanization, and the fallout that’ll haunt them for years. the realization that sometimes the most obvious truth is the profoundest one, and that sometimes all the twists in the world land you right where u started
the moment the character asks Odo if he can ever trust them again, and the shot lingers, and ends.
the episode ends there
that’s when I knew that this show wasn’t going to be like other trek. that’s when I knew this was going to be a story about the nuance, the incongruity, the unresolution and the things left hanging behind when an episode ends. that’s when I knew the writers on this show would wake up and choose artistic greatness in defiance of conventional tv wisdom.
thank you for my life, s2e8 necessary evil. we should talk about u more. xo.
hi!
starting a whole new blog instead of just an alt on my ancient old account! I had 27 alts on that one, it was untenable.
I'm a transmasc 33yo trying to get back into like... idk the interactive community part of fandom instead of just posting/consuming. I'm trying to find people who like trek/ds9 in a god-dishonoring way please, and boy it is tough to find that for an older fandom.
not to clog these tags but if you spend a lot of time here and have recs for who to follow lmk c:
**edited to add more info: I'm here for the garashir first and foremost, plus anything abotu the two of them individually, don't know the ship names but definitely quark/odo, kira/jadzia, odo/kira, in tng it's all data all the way down and also data/geordi, also v interested in the cardassians and dukat. truthfully tho I am open-minded and low on squicks so the sky's the limit
