I couldn't even tell that was a drawing until I looked more closely than that! You've definitely outdone anything I can do, by quite a lot. Very good! :D

Thank you Natima Lang! I appreciate the comment. Do you have any artwork to show...I would like to see it.

You're most welcome...you deserve it. :)

Right now, I only have one Star Trek-related piece of art, but it's not a final copy. Also, I'm in the middle of getting drawing lessons from a friend, so I'm at an earlier stage than you are, by far. If I showed it to you, please bear that in mind. :) The story behind it is funny, though...she told me to draw from models in magazines, as a practice exercise. Well, I got frustrated with one of the drawings, and in a fit of pique I turned her into a Cardassian. The scary thing was...I think she's got potential in Cardassian form! It's not a drawing of Natima, although I used a pic I found of her to help guide my drawing. I'll still need further study of Cardassian features to make the drawing really work, though.

Whew, what a ramble! I guess the basic question is, is that something you'd like to see?

Sure! I like looking at other peoples art even if their just starting. I can maybe give you a constuctive critique...if you like. No matter how good you are a critique is always helpful.

Well, I've already critiqued myself, and if you can read my handwriting, you should be able to see what I was thinking. :lol: I mean, I can tell I need to do a better study on Cardassian features before I try again.

But anyway...gonna upload it into another thread for you.

Me neither. First I thought it was a photo. Just when I looked at it more realised it was a drawing. It's really really good.
