In homage, Part II


Drawn 17-10-95 - 21/10/95. The moment every Star Trek fan had been having impure thoughts about waiting for: Captains Kirk and Picard meet! And they rode horses. Hmmm. Anyway, the horse that Kirk is riding here has a rather mischievous look on its face, and I can't remember why. Also, I'm not totally sure, but Picard might be in silhouette in the background because I was still trying to get the hang of drawing a fairly decent Patrick Stewart and it was just easier to colour him in.

Drawn 22/10/95. Ha ha ha - it's a joke about lady drivers! Because those *never* go out of fashion…

Next: An epic confrontation!

Ooh, an un-PC lady-driver joke!

Still, at least Troi's consistant. Not content with crashing the Enterprise-D, she had to go and crash the next one, too.

I know, outrageous, eh? It wouldn't be allowed in this PC day and age.

She did, didn't she? Did the senior officers not learn *anything*!?

That's a really detailed drawing of the Enterprise in the last shot!

For some reason that first shot with the silhouette of Picard like that, I thought of "Robin Hood: Men in Tights" when the Sheriff of Rottinham had to ride back home on his horse upside down and they shouted, "Mind the big rocks!"

And Patrick Stewart was in Robin Hood: Men in Thieves! THE SYNERGY!!!

Tim said...

Men in Thieves?! I'm confusing my Robin Hood films.

TIGHTS. I meant TIGHTS!

Ace!

Keep them coming.

You know, in school we had to do pictures of animals and I was assigned the elephant. Of course I didn't know how to do that so I created a big tree and put a tail coming out from one side of the tree and a foot and trunk on the other side.

My teacher was fairly furious when I presented my picture and contacted my parents. Turned out my mother told him off and she had actually done exactly the same thing when she was a kid. She had trouble with lions.

There's - tragically - plenty more to come!

It's outrageous that your teacher contacted your parents over the fact that you couldn't draw an elephant - OUTRAGEOUS!

Tara said...

Oo that's right! He was King or Prince Something or Other, and he knighted Robin Hood Sir Robin of Locksley.

Tim said...

Yep! He turned up right at the end, if I recall correctly!
