Progress is slow to come, but does nonetheless. #StarTrek (It seems that the challenge of drawing anything Shatner comes with an obligatory measure of masochism.)
WIP - B&W traditional sketch from the TOS episode 2x13 "Obsession''. The left side of Kirk's face is visible, the lower part partially hidden by his communicator, which he has in hand as per the one which can be seen holding it. Some shading has been done, but lots more is left to do. Drawing Shatner's Kirk will be the death of me.

It truly IS in the eyes. #StarTrek
B&W WIP, 3H, HB, and 5B graphite pencil. Close-up of Kirk from 'Obsession' pre-beam-up. Focus on his eyes, more specifically. Fully unedited, phone camera definition. Shatner's eyes are nothing if not expressive. I am endeavoring to do them justice.

Something ''sexy''. Sketched from memory, so you'll excuse the faulty anatomy. #Spirk (I kept his denim-covered butt to myself.)
B&W drawing of Kirk, back facing the viewer, looking from an angle with a come hither look on his face. His left hands on his hip, holding two lollipops, and the other one, almost hidden and closer to his face, is holding an IDIC necklace. The symbol itself is floating in the air, with a few sparkles. 'Looking for something, Mister Spock?,' the speech bubble says.

Well, I tried and I almost succeeded. Almost making me believe in miracles, etc. etc. #StarTrek
Visage - James T. Kirk from the episode 'The Return of the Archons'' (1x21). B&W traditional sketch. He's almost looking towards the camera, eyebrows slightly knitted, and he is wearing his white dress shirt, black narrow bowtie around the neck where a cravat would be, and his fabric coat.

Move along.
My face in profile, with fresh haircut and styling. One is cyan, almost superimposed with the other, in blood red. Wearing a 30's Kirk type garment – IYKYK – or, simply put, a flannel shirt.

Oh wait. I forgot two very important shots.
Full disclosure: this one, I took for Sarek alone. My weakness for Vulcans knows no bounds. 'Star Trek VI' information visible on the page, with a couple Klingon characters, one of which distantly reminds me of Worf. Right page of the 25th Anniversary part of the booklet, showing twelve characters (Jean Luc Picard, William T. Riker, Data, Lt. Tasha Yar, Worf, Geordi LaForge, Counselor Troy, Dr. Beverly Crusher, future ensign Wesley Crusher, Empress Sela (also played by Denise Crosby), S'Chn T'Gai Spock, and S'Chn T'Gai Sarek. Two pictures are visible below, the left one showing the'main cast of TNG in its infancy, and the right one Stewart and Nimoy, all dressed up, on set. A Data can also be discerned in the background.

Part IV (last one).
Printed onto the Voyage Home book-like set. Can be seen: Klingon Bird-of-Prey blueprints, white ink on black paper. Front, rear, and side views. More information in a paragraph visible on the lower hand side. Top and bottom views of the previously described vessel. The bird shape of this model couldn't be clearer. Cover of the Voyage Home set, the left half of which is colored in gold and the next one left white. The late Leonard Nimoy's signature can be seen on the gold side. The centerpiece is the best known poster for TVH. Close-up of the 25th anniversary laserdisc, still in its protective see-through plastic cover. The Japanese 'Star Trek' logo is visible, along with the '25th Anniversary' transcript in katakana right below it.

I opened up a few things and uncovered more for you to see. Part III. The pictures below come from the TMP set.
Inside the TMP laserdisc set. The picture shows blueprints if the refitted Enterprise, as front, rear, and left side blueprints (white ink on black paper). Further data is printed below, in a paragraph about the ship on the lower left side, and some specifications right next to it, such as the vessel's length (304.8 m), her total height (71.3 m), her full width (141.7 m), her available weapons, such as phasers and photon torpedoes, etc. Top and bottom views (blueprints) of the previously described vessel. Close-up of the Enterprise's specs. Translated specs read as follows: Total length - 304.8m Total height - 71.3m Total width - 141.7m Weapons - Phaser guns (18 in total) / photon torpedoes (20 in total, 2 launch tubes) Speed - Warp 8 cruising speed / Warp 12 max speed Capacity - 72 officers, 428 crew, total of 500 persons.

And Part II.
Picture from a perspective, showing the booklet from the back. A rectangle is visible, in which a metallic 'Star Trek' logo can be seen, upon a vintage Starfleet Delta, and the '1991 - 25 Anniversary' printed right below. Bit of laser disc in the right part of the picture, still in its original see through plastic protective pouch.

Here they are. Part I. ALT text included.
'Star Trek' - The Complète Collection set box view from above. The 'Star Trek' logo can be seen lower on the box, printed upon the obi, in Japanese. Two cat heads can also be seen, one white above, and one orange below. These two are curious, you see. And they have immeasurably good taste in media. All seven parts of the set, each in their own laser disc cardboard sleeve. From top to bottom (spine view): 0 - 'Star Trek: 25th Anniversary' 1 - 'Star Trek - The Motion Picture' 2 - 'Star Trek II The Wrath of Khan' 3 - 'Star Trek III The Search for Spock' 4 - 'Star Trek IV The Voyage Home' 5 - 'Star Trek V The Final Frontier' 6 - 'Star Trek VI The Undiscovered Country'. The protective upper part of the box set can be seen below, empty. View from above of the included booklet, titled 'Star Trek - The Complete Collection', in its vintage and colorful font. A few hexagons can be seen underneath, each part of the poster for each movie, as well as a nice shot of the Enterprise from the rear. Excerpt from the booklet that is previously described, on the Whale Movie. All in Japanese. A color picture of Nimoy, its director, can be seen in the lower right hand corner.

Found this at a nearby vintage store. Only Trek-related piece they had in their spacious warehouse. Released in 1991, Japanese export. Will post further pictures later today. #StarTrek

Shatner: 1 - Grvning: 0. Unfinished. Might delete later.
Half digital TOS Kirk face, showing the left side. Lime green uniform top. Wobbly anatomy. Gave up trying after over four hours.

Slow going, but it is going. I need new glasses. #StarTrek
Close-up of Chibi!Uhura's closed fist, lifted as a means to encourage. A yellow star can be seen behind it. Her red uniform and single braid complete the rest, and one of her green earrings is visible, but blurry.

Experimenting. All done using my phone. Not to be used without my explicit permission, needless to say.
B&W photo of a cat with a slightly gray blue overall tone. The cat's face is the most visible element, incredibly white as if under direct spotlight, and her color-enhanced yellow and blue eyes also stand out. She is looking from under a duvet.

Step by step. And still using an unsuitable type of paper for alcohol-based ink, due to things currently being the way they are. #StarTrek #ChibiUhura
Left leg of Chibi!Uhura (ST: TOS). Bit of light gray and brown for her tights, dark gray and black for her shoe. Line drawn using a red ink ball pen.

Something something WIP. #StarTrek (I never give her enough appreciation, and she deserves a whole universe of it.)
Pencil chibified TOS Uhura partial picture. Her in ear receiver can be seen, along with a star right behind it, an earring, and one of her very 60's hairstyles. She is smiling.

Here, have a chibified Jim Kirk. Just some experimenting. #StarTrek
A chibified TOS Jim Kirk in color (alcohol-based markers). He's holding his communicator in his right hand and looking irate. His left hand is sitting right above his hip, his thumb pressing into his uniform. No visual reference used, only attempted something different as a challenge.

Spock concept. I used a thin brush pen with gold ink, which tends not to look that way on pictures. All colors from alcohol-based markers. Green ball pen for part of the line. #StarTrek
A color drawing of TOS Spock, profile view, in a praying position. Visible down to the stomach areas cloaked in black with a simple golden pattern at neck level. A golden hand, positioned in a ta'al, is touching Spock's. Close-up os both hands touching. Further details in previous alt text.

A few blue ball pen studies from a few TOS episodes. #StarTrek
Two sketches, each showing one of Spock's hands from the 'Amok Time' episode. One occupies about ⅔ of the page, wiping away an invisible tear on an invisible Chapel. The second hand is gripping an ahn-woon with force, some veins bulging out visibly. Kirk's hands, one atop the other, drawn from 'And the Children Shall Lead' episode. The hand below is partially hidden by the fingers atop it. A partial Spock profile looking to the right from 'Bread and Circuses', showing an eyebrow, an eye, and most of his nose. Fairly light line, showing only essential parts. Three Kirk eye studies, the two upper ones from 'Amok Time' and the lower one from 'Bread and Circuses'. Various emotions can be witnessed.

Kirk putting on a show for Spock, pin-up style, if you will. Well hello there. #StarTrek
Drawing of TOS Kirk (blue ink fountain pen and alcohol-based markers), posing like a pinup would. He has his back turned, his head turned and looking towards the viewer with a flirtatious smile, partially hidden with his hand. He is wearing a simple dark gray dress and ''women's'' panties underneath, of a strong pink color. His legs are otherwise divested. No visual reference used, weird pose and anatomy.

I am weak for beautiful hands. #TraditionalArt
B&W picture of a pencil drawing of a partially closed hand, delicately holding both sides of a thin string, which belongs to a necklace (not visible). Visible line shading.

Long overdue TOS Scotty study. Nevermind the untidiness of it, as I used thick paper with alcohol-based markers (all that I have with me at the moment). #StarTrek
Color drawing of TOS Scotty. Screenshot of TOS used as a reference. He has a concerned expression on his face and a phaser in one hand. A tricorder can be seen at his right, worn upon the opposite shoulder. Bright yellow and dark purple shapes are visible to his right.

Belated 'Amok Time' fanart. I saw a few artists use colorful shapes in a similar fashion, which gave me inspiration to try something a bit different. My gratitude goes to them. #StarTrek
'Amok Time' Spock, deep in the plaktau. 2B pencil piece, with the left side of Spock's face within a vermilion shape (right triangle which angle is facing the lower right hand side, and a curved part facing the upper left hand side). The other part of his face and body are partially yellow (lighted parts as per the original capture), with a Captain's Star to the right, where said yellow originates (light). Description in the previous picture. Slight close-up to show more of the shading within the vermilion shape. Close-up of the Captain's Star insignia, from which emanates the yellow beams.

Their eyes are expressive, yet in different ways. #StarTrek
TOS Spock eye shape study, green ink ball pen. Features a bit of red ink ball pen for the mucous parts. TOS Spock eye shape study, green ink ball pen.
