Description
A scene from the Rebooted Defiance|Alliance where after quite an eventful and stressful day for Calius comes to an end and she spends it with Q.For those that forget, Q is disguised as his horsey self so he can continue to look after Calius, regardless if her memories come back or not.
Speed Paint Video (minus background as ManyCam is dumb. Also no viewable in Germany cause of the music, sorreh :/ ) www.youtube.com/watch?v=gR0dnM…

So many details I wouldn't have noticed if I hadn't seen the speedpaint.... owo This is so awesome! And you should make more art with speedpaints because I love watching them!!!

Eeeeeeeeeeee Really?! I shall try this then! (If I can get ManyCAm to stay working that is or find a better program to use to record ._____. Really was sad that it didn't show how I did the background

Planes are pretty cool! Too bad I'm afraid of flying in them xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I've developed a small fear of flying just due to a really bad experience in a plane (nothing happened with the plane, I think it's just a negative association with flying taking me away from my wife in Florida >__<; So more so emotional) The one time I had a panic attack so, everything was 10x worse than what it really was on board.But I still love them and would love to work with them on the ground :3
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, I can appreciate planes from the ground much better xD I've been on a few plane rides so you'd think I'd be used to it. I can handle large jets fairly well since you don't feel as much turbulence on them, but when it comes to smaller planes I'm pretty paranoid the entire time. That's why I'm not real fond of shorter flights because they use the smaller planes.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I can understand that. Smaller planes are easier to rock around. Although looking at jets from the ground, you might feel more scared of them cause you get to see what happens on the outside XD Crosswind landings are interesting and fun to watch from the ground but the whole time I'm thinking "There are a handful of poor sods on board that are freaking the freak out right now."
Although to their defense, crosswind landings are kinda freaky -w-

What is a crosswind landing? o:
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'd show you a video but I don't wanna freak you out XD
They're pretty common, it's when a plane comes in and the wind is blowing directly either to one side or the other, not in the direction of the runway XD So the plane comes in very rough feeling (to the passengers, lots of dips) and to someone like me looking from the outside, they come in on an angle XD Sometimes not very dramatic and sometimes pretty damn dramatically (Hence why I'll let you look up crosswind landings if you're curious to see what it looks like XD)

Show me a video I don't mind xD
It sounds slightly familiar, maybe I've encountered one and just never noticed? I tend not to look out the windows... I only did when we were closer to the ground.

They actually look kinda cool! Although I'm sure I'd think otherwise if I was riding in the planes xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Its weird because from the outside, it just looks like the plane in coming in on an angle, but in the plane the nose is dipped....and it feels steep. Its not a fun feeling. The bigger the plane the smaller the feeling, but the smaller the plane the more dramatic the feeling >__<; Its more freaky when they have to touch and go, especially if you don't see it coming. Luckily I can almost predict when they're gonna do it, but not always XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hahaha xD Well let's just hope I never feel it while on a plane because then I'll probably freak out and grip the arm rests until my knuckles turn white. I have a hard enough time getting out of my seat to use the restroom. I'm one of those people who's like "If I move even a little it will set the plane off course and we'll all die" even though that's not what would happen.

XDDD It feels like that though, I totally get what you mean!!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well hopefully I'll get a better grip on that fear someday, it's awful when everyone else is calm and you look like you're about to have a breakdown any moment xD

That's nice! The ability to be a horse. I want that too... ;-;

Thank you!
I know right? That would be pretty amazing!

Indeed it would! ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I didn't know Q could take the form of a horse! This is so warm and beautiful and comforting-looking... 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Being omnipotent he can turn into anything
Makes me wonder what Scotty would be? I think Orin would be a mini or a Shetland pony giving her race! Scotty would probably be a Clydesdale! Both the Shetland and the Clyde are Scottish breeds too :3
Ahh, thank you that means so much!! I really wish ManyCam would have picked up me doing the background, other than the lineart, it took the longest to do
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You're so welcome! I truly meant it! 
Aww, yes, I can totally see that, them as those horse breeds... Scotty would be a big chubby one.
That almost makes me want to ask for that as an art trade with you sometime... are you open for them at the moment, by the way, or are you busy? (I totally understand if so, don't worry, and in fact I already have two or three trades on my plate right now--I just wondered for a bit later on. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Do you use photoshop for your pictures? And if you do what version? If it's elements sadly it lacks the pen tool so I won't be able to help there >__<; But if it's any of the normal photoshops like 7 up to CS6, I can help you better :3
I'd love to do an art trade with you!!
I already have an idea of how I'd like to attempt to draw Scotty and Orin as horses if that's what you'd want (And if you didn't have an idea for a pose and such in mind first of course! ) >w< Just always worry about something looking awesome in my head transferring to paper -w-

Well, I'm currently using my mother's computer upstairs to color with, and its Photoshop just said "12.0" when I checked the specifics menu under "help...."
I'd love to too!!! I have two other art trades going so far but I can handle three, it'll be fine! 
Tell me what you want too (here or in a note, whichever)! 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
And I can totally do that! I honestly have no idea what I want for my end of the trade....I have a few ideas to choose from but gotta pick one XD I might give you two to choose from (and you can pick whatever is easiest or more fun sounding to you!) and I'm not really picky about anything either
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Aww, poop....
And sure, you can give me multiple ideas to choose from for my half of our trade! Any time you're ready.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
OH I have two ideas you can pick from XD I can't honestly decide!
The scene in our RP where Spock falls off the boat, but with Jim and Spock already in the water and Calius about to do a Canon ball
Or
Calius, Jim, Orin and Scotty laying on the grass star gazing :3
Pretty straight forward XD The first one is more specific complicated sounding though, so whatever works easiest for you
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Aww, those both sound adorable! I'll see what I can do! Thanks so much, buddy, I'll really enjoy drawing either of those!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
This is so neat! I love the way you color it too =] Calius is so sweet
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you >W<
I'm so glad you like Calius :3

Hehe, thanks. Took me from the time we stopped RPing last night till like 7 in the morning to finish XD

Dangggggg D: It looks great though. The way your backgrounds come together still amazes me
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I wish I could actually DRAW backgrounds....but, I'm not disappointed with how this one turned out no XD It wasn't what I was going for but, worked out in the end :3 Probably too vast looking for San Fran XD
Glad you like it though 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The way you incorporate stock into your images always looks so seamless and amazing though....like really....TELL ME OF YOUR SECRETS
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh gosh, the background was a pain....
I wish ManyCam would have filmed the whole thing without failing ;w; you'd probably see how I manage to do the backgrounds...its not hard just time consuming. <__<;

CURSE YOU MANYCAM SCUUUUUUM!!!
I had to uninstall it from my computer because the screen capture would never work. I got the VLC media player though, and that does screen capture that is pretty darn decent. It's a little weird to set it up to do the screen capture properly, but it works!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
What VLC does it too? D: I have that program!! When you're on Skype tomorrow, you must walk me though it!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Here are the instructions I used. Option 2

And it works amazing D:

Does it have a stupid watermark thingy saying VLC? I know Manycam does (mancam LULZ) and it's kinda in your face like GET MANYCAM ITS EPIC SO WE'RE GONNA PUT THIS BIG THING IN THE CORNER SO YOU KNOW TO GET IT...MARKETING

NOPE. NO WATERWARK THANK GOD
