Very nice, though not what I had imagined to be honest.  Although the only person I've been accurate on is Sevryll.....is that sad?

You imagined what Sevryll looked like? I didn't even know until I started painting. I guess my descriptions of her in my writing was good enough for you to imagine her?

I'm probably going to redo Sevryll and Joe.. I don't like them anymore. That's common though... that happens to me a lot. I'm not happy with the uniform I painted on Quinn. Just not a good reference pic of our new uniforms. The only thing I have to go by are the STO images.  Maybe I should start painting them in civilian garb...

Yeah, I did too. But like Kenny said he's half El-Aurian. Guinan was a fossil but she looked like she was in her thirties or forties. Quinn's 70.

I can't even keep it straight in my head what Aeric looks like. That El-Aurian blood is freaky and the shorter lived side of his genepool.

Very Very Cool.

I guess I should send you a Bolian subject....

You know what would be cool? Do a main character group shot, but as though one of Sevryll's kids drew it. Crayon style.

Yea, I could imagine her.  As I read stories I tend to "create" what people, places, and such would look like.  A lot of it is influenced by how people write.  I doubt I'm unique in this matter.  This tends to have problems when I go to movies obviously.  However, this tends to be an advantage when going from TV to book.

Jen you could always add your artistic eye to the uniform look. It's not like they don't have several uniforms to choose from.

I LIKE it! I may have my niece, Karlee, draw that picture. :D

Yeah, I've thought about doing others in the Nemesis era uniforms or in civies. I want to do one of Sevryll in her robes watching her children run over the dunes outside her home... I'll get to it eventually I guess.

Playing around in Photoshop for the last couple of hours.  Here's a portrait of Zremm's girlfriend, Ensign Marie Barton.

Nice job Rico.. too bad she's no longer a member of the crew.
