Trek Art for ksvalentine

[tripperfunster]

First one is just another Starbuck's doodle, coloured at home. Semi work safe.




Second one is my FEEBLE attempt to copy swordsart very cool style. Sadly, I used Dollar Store markers, and THEY SUCK! Not to mention that they had no lighter/transluscent colours, so skin tones are out. Please realize that my attempt to copy her style is merely my way of complimenting her and trying to learn something new. I'm not trying to BE her, or take over her style, I'm just playin'.

Both of these are wonderful :)

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Thank you! They were both fun to make!

You've been amazingly prolific this month! What a treat to check my flist....

I love how your drawings have such a sense of narrative. Like, in that first one, Spock looks a tad grouchy, so it seems like Jim is trying to ask his forgiveness. *cough* Love the underwear and how short the shirts are -- more like the TOS uniforms.

swordsart is awesome! Why aren't more people commenting on her work??? I had missed a lot of early stuff, so I went to her journal and slathered everything with kisses yesterday. Hahaha. I love your swordsy drawing! I don't think you were held back by your inferior materials at all! It's so vibrant!

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Thanks! And prolific?? INORITE? I JUST CAN'T STOP! I still have a couple of haiti-drawbles to finish, my daily deviant drawing, hump_day_smut, and then like ...4 or 5 fests for next month. *boggles*

Hey, are you doing the reverse trek-bang? I AM!!

As for swordsart, I have no idea why people aren't falling all over themselves to lavish her with praise. She really rocks my socks off! I even featured her last month in my deviantART 'Porn Farr' blog on the trek site there.

Very cool. And hey, I like the use of the dollar-store markers! The pointillism effect really works.

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Yeah, the crap markers worked fine for pointillism, but SUCKED WANG at actual colouring. Oh well, what do you expect for a buck, right? :D

[liralicia.livejournal.com]

Ohhhh, te kiss one is so beautiful!!! I love the final effect, and the pose is so tender ♥

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Thank you! It was fun (and tedious) to do! dot dot dot dot dot

[sra-danvers.livejournal.com]

Oh my! I think that two are so in character. Jim so teasing and Spock waiting for him ;-)

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Thank you hon! Oh, and I got your email! I'm so glad 'they' arrived! Cheers! <3

[swordsart.livejournal.com]

Ack! They are both awesome, but I giddily clapped my hands at the stippling one! *is flattered*

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

You SHOULD be flattered, your stuff is awesome!

I'll have to try again when/if I get some prisma markers. I have a bunch of yummy watercolour stuff from Christmas that I haven't even cracked open yet!

[1scout.livejournal.com]

Both of them are terrific. I like the one where they're kissing, they kind of look like cute little kids.

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Ha! They do! Unintentional, but cute regardless! :D Thanks!

[illariy.livejournal.com]

Oooh, love the first one. Their body language is just perfect and the underwear is sexy. *cough*

The second one is sweet and... do I see some ear sexings there? :D

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

There is ALWAYS ear sexings. If it's not shown, it's IMPLIED! ;)

[chocolate-frapp.livejournal.com]

cool!

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[andieshep.livejournal.com]

Very adorable! Love them both! :D

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Thank you! <3

[http://users.livejournal.com/_profiterole_/]

Great pics! :-)

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

[rainbowstrlght.livejournal.com]

Both of these are really lovely! It's always interesting to see my favorite artists branch out a bit, and I think the pointillism one is really great! I like their hair. And the dark lines of the eyebrows and eyelids! ♥ And the way you shaded their skin, kind of like how swordsart does, with the stippling. It's cool! :D

... Okay, I'll end lame comment just by saying: I ENJOYED BOTH. Thanks for sharing! :)

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

No! Comment is not lame at all! I think you're very sweet! Thanks so much for looking! <3

And yeah, I HAVE to branch out or I get bored. Short attention span! :D

[ashleyj28.livejournal.com]

Wow, two of them! Everyone's so lucky that you've contributed so much for this calendar - thanks a million! These are great, I especially like the technique you used in the marker one. And I LOVE the position they're in in the first one.

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Aw, thank you! I was pleased that you let me post so much! <3

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much! <3

[synn.livejournal.com]

I think they're both cute : ) Spock's expression in the first is great

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Hee! It's hard to make Spock look anything but grumpy, with those classic >: eyebrows! <3

[spockollama.livejournal.com]

These are really pretty, I love pointillism:)

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I love the LOOK of pointillism, but .... yeah. I don't think it will become a habit! :D

[jaylee-g.livejournal.com]

Wow. Both are completely awesome. What incredible talent you have. I'm in awe of you. :-)

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Aw, thank you very much!

[just-jane-doe.livejournal.com]

Love them both so much!!! You're brills - thanks much for sharing!

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[diane-kepler.livejournal.com]

I especially like the one on top -- the expressions and the different colored underwear are great. As are the poses. What happened? Did Kirk somehow beat Spock at wrestling and now Spock is pouting?

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Hee! Hey, I'm not the writer, I just draw the stuff! :D

Now if YOU wanted to write something ....

[zephyr-macabee.livejournal.com]

I am enthralled by Spock's thumb in the first one; I don't know why.

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Ahaha! I don't know why either! Foreshortening? It's a crazy drug!

[venturous1.livejournal.com]

adorable! I love your 'love among the heavens' star trek pics... it's perfectly corny and romantic!

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

How COULDN'T you fall in love with a crazy background like that? ;)

[spirktrekker42.livejournal.com]

LOVE IT! VERY PRETTY BOY KISSING! :D

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Boy kissing FTW!!

[bbuttercup.livejournal.com]

I love the playfulness of the first and the textures and the way you mixed the colors in the second :o)

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'm so glad you liked them!

[svrldsmntls.livejournal.com]

LOVES THEM!

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

<3

[glockgal.livejournal.com]

HEEE so adorable! I love how Spock is all sulky in the first one.


And OMG THE STIPPLING. I have no idea how you have such patience to create such cohesive and lovely arts. <3

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Aw, thanks hon!

And the stipple one? Super rush job. My son said "Mama, let's draw!" and I said "Okay!" and we picked up some markers and went to town. He drew some sort of maze/robot thing and I made 1000 little dots. In fact, I used two markers at the same time (one in each hand) to speed things up.

:D
