Description
From the Redesign Activity on the RelicNews Boards:An Andorian.
Felt like giving it a semi-aquatic look, but also a thick fur to help survive on that cold moon of theirs.
Didn't even notice how the face started looking like a Rodian's. Oh well.

That is really cool! I always thought it would have been neat to see what some of the basically-human aliens in TOS would have looked like if they had a bigger budget--the Iotians, Capellans, and so forth--but I never thought about actually redesigning the already-somewhat-different-looking ones like the Andorians before. Anyways, very neat design!

I love it! It's not only far more alien looking, but oddly also kind of cute!

I have a redesign concept that I haven't posted yet that is more insectoid (It was inspired by the fact that Andorians have Antennae but don't show any other signs of being insectoid)

It is frustrating the way Star Trek aliens all look so human.

@Director1265: Budget limitations. Even with "unimaginitve" makeup, Star Trek: Enterprise's cost of production monumentally outstripped what they could make back. Doing aliens like this, while cooler, would be too expensive for TV. And most of the previous movies were made on the cheap as well, so more alien aliens were out of the question then as well.
Anyways... question... are those rank tabs on his shoulders?

Looks as if someone gene soliced a Rodian with Andorian.

I really wish somebody with an actual imagination made "Star Trek." That way, their so-called "aliens" wouldn't look so plain, and people wouldn't have to resort to redesigning to see anything interesting.

hi hi
I often wonder what star trek would have been like if they had a bigger costume budget. This is a pretty good representation of what it might have been like.

HAHAHAH. Like a Rodian's!
"Going somewhere, Captain Kirk?"
"Yes, but this time I've got the goods."
"It's too late for that. Harry Mudd's put a bounty on your head so big, you won't be able to set your foot on a civilized planet. He really just wants your ship."
"The Enterprise? Over my dead body."
"That's the idea, Captain Kirk."
I'm just in fine form tonight.
Anyways, your Andorian looks pretty spiffy. Given that the age of CGI is upon us, he could've been easily stuck into a Special Edition TOS episode somewhere.

The fur really does make sense,but the face looks a bit too Rodian/ant-eater.
But other than that,i really like this concept for a very alien Andorian.

Cool. I've allways liked the desing of the Andorians but it certainly would make sense them to have fur since they live on an ice planet.
