Orion Slave Girl: Star Trek Magazine
By popular request, I'm tossing up the full illustration of the Orion Slave Girl that is seen over to the right in my lil' animated .gif. Seems she's quite popular! This is an illustration I did a few issues back for the official Star Trek Magazine, by Titan Publishing. I did another as well, which I'll post soon!

TOS Animated work...
Back a few years ago, while I was working heavily on "The Trek Life" for CBS/STARTREK.COM, I pitched an image to them about the TOS Animated Series, and a fun comic tie-in idea I had involving the TNG crew in the same style. While due to licensing issues it didn't fly, I thought I'd show this, as it's not been seen in ages.
As a result of this image, however, I was, in 2007, asked to create an official piece of TOS Animated Series artwork. As it turns out, as many of my fellow Trekkers know, Walter Koenig's character Chekov was not part of the animated series... as a result, there has never been up to this point an existing "officially sanctioned" TOS: Animated Series drawing of Chekov as he "would have" been seen. CBS commissioned me to create the only one known within Trek Animated canon for the official archives, which I will share here, and can also be seen in the archives now of Startrek.com. I basically obviously mimicked the exact style and feel, even color scheme of the TOS Animated Series (which I have always been a huge fan of since childhood), down to the production value and 2D limited-animation style seen in the series.
It's a little piece of something special to this Trekkie from waaaaay back. Enjoy!
Back from WizardWorld LA

More from the sketchbook
No matter what I'm working on, or how busy I may be, I confess... I always find time to doodle in my sketchbook. There's nothing more freeing than letting your mind wander with a pencil or pen on paper, is there? I'm always interested in the types of sketchbooks other cartoonists and artists use, too... The type of paper dictates the types of media one can use, and all artists have their preferences, including style (hardbound, spiral, clipboard, etc), even the brand of the sketchbook. So, what kind do you use?
