The away-team on Star Trek: TOL was always suspect. There was Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock, Dr. McCoy and some guy in a red shirt. It was this guy who was always first to find the mysterious creature and meet his ultimate demise. This is my tribute to the red shirt guys. Short lived and not prosperous. For this 170th post on Niko's Ink, I've included the rough pencil drawing.
Niko’s Ink is a project—a formal outlet—to illustrate characters from pop culture (movies, cartoons, comic books, TV, video games etc.) that have impacted and influenced my imagination. All drawings are on a 2.5 x 3.5 inch card (trading card size), using pen and ink and created from the deep recesses of the photographic visual library within my head. The project is divided into quarters or periods by a color theme. In other words, characters are grouped and drawn based on their association with a color. The first quarter is green, followed by red, blue and yellow (approx. 90 characters in each period). Sounds a bit complicated but it allows me to create whatever I want and share it with you. Parents, please feel free to print any of them out for your children to color and collect. Any comments, suggestions or requests are always welcome. I hope you enjoy the journey.
