Description I am never, ever drawing a Cardassian again.

At least, not for a while.

Phew!

For those unfortunate ones amongst you who are unaware, this is Elim Garak, from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. He was my favorite character after Constable Odo.
Ink, & coloured pencils. Oh, so many coloured pencils.

They both had brilliant scenes with everyone, though. Lol. It was just critical-mass of sarcasm when they were together ^_^

Absolutely orgasmically art-tastic.
Just. Sheesh. The RIDGES and the VEINS, ye remembered the temple veins, that's like sixty additional coolpoints right there because everybody seems to forget those when they draw him and the - the FOREHEAD SPOON, I don't know the right word for it or I've forgotten, but it looks so good! Yer attention to detail is astounding!
And I just love the expression too. It's enough to make me actually believe he heard me refer to his forehead as having a 'spoon' and want to do me greivous bodily harm. Darn it all, I love him anyway. x3

WELL DONE! ^__^

Whee ^^ Nice picture, Garak 'tis one of my favourite characters on DS9. There's absolutely no hope of any Star Trek being aired here... they only did a few eppies of DS9 and Voyager and that was it ;-; A bit disappointing, but I had other means of watching them xD

Heh, cos I was scared it would suck! And then you'd be thinking, "Whatever happened to that Garak sketch she mentioned?"
And it would be torn to pieces under my bed.
So I figured it would make a better surprise than disappointment *L*

I could never sit an watch a whole episode of star trek until voyager came along
the plots are just much better than the older ones (i think any way)

STSN is a great show. I miss it (can't find it on TV). But anyways, really great drawing, Elim Garak looks really unhappy (like when do Cardassians don't). Really like it.

It is a great show. My favorite Star Trek series, by far...they've stopped playing it on The Space Channel up here, I can't figure out why that is.
