I love this art from Star Trek Adventures. Look how angry she looks. Like she's finally had enough of her captain's dumb orders and is giving out on behalf of the whole crew

Prepare to be assimilated. Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own. Resistance. Is. Futile.

While making my Odo mini, I was actually watching Voyager in the background and (controversial) god I just love Voyager Borg so much. Someone suggested I should make one and I thought why not, should be easy enough todo, used up a lot of bits lol, but this came out looking fantastic and very Borg-y.

Have you played STAR TREK ADVENTURES ?

By Modiphius

Starfleet needs a new crew! Welcome to your new assignment, Captain. Your continuing mission, to explore strange new worlds, seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no one has gone before.

Star Trek Adventures takes you to the Final Frontier of the Galaxy, where new discoveries await keen explorers of Starfleet. Your duties may take you to the edges of known space, or to Federation colonies in need, to the borders of neighboring galactic powers or into the eye of interstellar phenomena. Your ship and your crew epitomize the best Starfleet and the United Federation of Planets has to offer, and you are needed more than ever.

i drew my character from a star trek adventures game @wrrdbrrd is running, captain koria tel

the elevator pitch for her is that she was a very cautious, by-the-book, model starfleet officer who was joined with the hot-headed and free-wheeling tel symbiont when she was already in her forties-- circumstances made possible in the aftermath of the dominion war, when the trill symbiosis commission was forced to look outside the narrow confines of the initiate program for prospective hosts following the death of a disproportionate number of joined trill in the war

anyway she was fun to draw so hopefully you'll be seeing more of her

Back in March last year I had the chance to do a couple of Illustrations for the Star Trek Adventures TTRPG and since the Klingon War Campaign Book has been available since march this year I thought I'd finally share these!

(as I'm a big Star Trek fan, getting this job was definitely a personal achievement for me 8') )

Counselor Temrak, USS Östergötland NCC-72227

The Östergötland is a Norway-class starship with an expanded Cetacean Ops with cetaceans sharing helm, engineering, security, science and medical positions. Lt. Temrak is the ship's counselor and an NPC in our Star Trek Adventures tabletop RPG campaign.

And I drew him wearing a tie.

Another finished commission, completed over the course of several months, and with a fair amount of interesting changes during the process.

I'm going to put the process under the cut, and you can just enjoy a sample of the final renders above if you like.

So, as always, started out with simply 'blocking' of the scene based on the information provided by the commissioner, getting scale right, and making sure the particular consoles and key environment items like the Captain's chair, are in the right place.

I then move to the more detailed blocking, adjusting based on feedback, adding new elements and getting other details right. You'll notice early on that part of the changes so far have involved flipping the back-side consoles around, and changing the off-shoot corridors into walls with a door, as well as adding, altering, and removing some other details.

At this point, I also added in a stand-in ceiling, just to get the basic composition, shapes, and scale correct. This, again, went through a couple of iterations before the final version, and was drawing on the same visual cues on the Voyager bridge, with a little TNG mixed in. As you can see in the final version, this went through some revisions, but retained the same visual style.

With everything now looking as the commissioner wanted in block out, I started working on the actual build - starting with the Captain's and other Officer chairs, before moving onto the other main details, including consoles, railings, pillars, etc.

After this was a lot of iterative work, changing things here and there as we go based on feedback, or my own feelings on the composition or quality of what I'd done and how it meshed together. Eventually, I got the point of putting in test LCARS, before moving on to starting to generate custom LCARS based on the requested colour palette.

The MSD specifically went through a lot of variation between starting and final version - mostly just revisions to the LCARS colour bars, or location of some of the minor elements. It was my first completely from scratch MSD, and I really enjoyed the challenge of it.

By this point it was largely ensuring everything meshed nicely, fit the style-guide I was given to work to, and finalising the LCARS, doing final redesigns on the Operations and Security alcoves, and adding final touches.

Then the commissioner gave me their final sign-off, and we end up at the final images shown at the tops of the post!

All in all, it was an interesting comission, and as always, I hope you enjoyed this glimpse into my workflow. Any questions, let me know!

This art from Star Trek Adventures is fantastic

[chitinleg]

a lot of fussing around with making potential STA characters and some little odos

“Hrumph” - Odo’s most iconic auditory emanation.

His face is a bit scuffed lol, but ah well I’m happy even somewhat resembles him. I found this absolutely amazing head in Stargrave Crew I which looked like a Changeling, there’s even a female version in Crew II, and I knew what I had todo no matter how hard it is to sculpt a 1mm x 1mm nose! In case you’re wondering what on Earth that base is, that’s the carpet they have in the docking tube corridors, always thought it looked like a good design for a flag :3
