Description
Everyone's favorite vulcan. (Well, should be.)I drew this on account of the fact that I have not done a portrait in so long, I was getting scared I'd lose the ability to.
In lieu of the new movie and how fabulous it turned out to be, I decided to do a throw back to Nimoy. I was glad to see him reprise the role of Spock. So here's my favorite Mr. Spock, 60's style.
I dearly love Leonard Nimoy and his acting, he seems like a lovely person.
How rare it is to see Spock smiling! But he did have a wonderful smile, I figured it would be nice to showcase.
I was dreadfully frightened it wouldn't turn out looking like him at all. It is my first try, be merciful!
Done in pencil and ink.

I made a Leonard Nimoy pic too I got it a nice big wood frame because it's considered almost as big as a poster size lol the sad fact is though i have not been able to put it in my room because my brothers junk is in there and i now literally sleep on the couch

He moved out but there's no where else to put it my other brother who moved out has his room already filled with more junk.
Though I'd rather sleep on the couch cause my room isn't the cleanest as in maybe flea wise from my cat

HAHAHA Oh, fleas... SO much fun. -_- Note my SUPREME sarcasm...
Hey, I have a spare cot! Wow, sounds like there is a lot of hoarding going on... sometimes people need to bite the bullet and throw things out, you know? It isn't fair you have no room to yourself because of junk! OoO

LOL we have no where to throw it out either and it costs quite a bit to trash stuff unless you sell them which never happens here :L

I'm very glad you commented on this one, I tried very hard to bring Nimoy to life. It's about 24x15 hanging in my room. <3
Thanks!

Awesome pic. Leonard Nimoy would be proud to see this picture of him. lol I loved him in the Star Trek movie. I was glad they included him and not Shatner in the movie b/c then that movie would have to go on for another hour or so while Shatner talks with his random pauses during them! XD To be honest I think Zachary Quinto did a fab. job of impersonating Spock and made him look just as cute as ever! lol But, Nimoy will always reign as the Supreme Mr. Spock. *holds up Vulcan salute. "live long and prosper." lol

Aww well thank you! Someone told me I should send it to him but I would be so embarrassed hahaha I'm sure the poor man gets enough of that stuff in his mailbox!
I adored the fact that they got Leonard to reprise Spock in the new movie! Just about keeled over at that I was so giddy. Hahahaha poor Shat- he is hilarious. But I'll always love the Shatner/Nimoy duo as Spock & Kirk, fabulous.
My God, Quinto was eerie spot on wasn't he? Even my mother (long time Trekkie) was freaked out by how much he resembled Nimoy's Spock in some shots. Of course Nimoy will always be #1, but it's clear that Quinto thinks so and respects him.
Haha! \/ Live long and prosper!

It's a shame that some of the original Star Trek cast didn't age very gracefully. William Shatner became heavy, and Leonard Nimoy...well, let's face it, Nimoy isn't exactly beautiful anymore in terms of physical appearance.
That being said, this pic definitely brought back young childhood memories. My dad loved the original Star Trek, and had me watch some of it with him.

Hahaha I suppose, but they put in their dues. They earned the right to let go. I can't believe that Nimoy is pushing 80! There's a sense of surrealism to that. Well, his character is eternal of course.
Yes, my mother is very, very fond of Star Trek. She watched TOS and TNG. At first I was reluctant, as a child the idea of space travel was terrifying. But the characters are what got me in to it, I love the characters.

Yeah, its a rather special moment if you can get a smile out of Spock, I attempted to capture it.
Thanks kindly!
