Not at all. I'll need to try it.
No matter how many years I've worked in Photoshop, it always something new to learn.

He reminds me a little of someone in the Secret of Nymn... man it's been too long to remember who though.

Cool looking picture. Isn't his coloring a little darker than some of your other pictures of him, though?
I have to say that since I've started reading your little summaries, I've become addicted to the idea of a GMD/ST fusion.

Solak's an original design JUST for Titus. He's mentioned by name alone (a Vulcan admiral whose head of Fifth Fleet, that's it) only in the Dominion War Sourcebook, so I just took that and made an entire personality. It was ironic since I made Titus the flagship of its own fleet; I chose the Fifth Fleet as it was mentioned in an episode for protecting the Vulcan border -- bring a Vulcan back to Vulcan. A month later I read the Sourcebook, everything worked perfectly and added Salok.
Oooo....that's tempting. I think Vonny (or Lupine) would be great for an ambigious "guest star" -- a villianous staker. He's just an idea -- made him up like yesterday actually, lol! Jossian Lyta, a Betazoid (telepathic race) psychopath/serial murderer who had a powerful ability to kill telepathically. Just think about it. How terrible such a think is...just dream a thought, a simple thought, and the larnyx squeezes -- no evidence. He's just this shadow, a minor subplot. The ship's counselor Ixanna Eltar, years ago, applied for an advanced behavioural psychology internship at an asylum for the criminally insane, where she studied Jossian Lyta who became obsessed with her. And he "stocks" her telepathically -- a kind of "mind rape". Think Jack-Of-All-Trades killer from Profiler series, a man who calls her and as a goodbye LICKS the phone. Very creepy guy, but intelligent, educated, well-read, and extremely charming -- but not nessecarily handsome....well, it's optional, but not really nessacary. It's idea is only two days old...but I have to have Cass' permission for it since it's her character whose playing the part of Ixanna Eltar.
I can't help it. I love angst. I love psychological torture of characters. I have to do to every character I do.

Very nice colouring on this, your attention to the details is also very good, yet you still keep a clean line which is essential. His expression is perfect as well as his stance in this frame. A nice close up and profile captures the eyes.
I would like to see you do a loose open full page using these guys. Your art has a fusion of a manga style and western style which is so unique. Especially the eyes. I think the eyes of your characters set them apart from the rest of the anthros out there that are fan based. All your characters have a very similar yet slightly different eye structure, as well as body and skull structure as well. It's clean, easy to look at and very nice.
(then again you know this stuff so I'm just repeating myself)
But I would encourage you to try a bit of comic art. Just for fun. But not like western comic, try manga. But no Chibis

Thank you. I'll have to try the comic art. I don't read much manga, but I think it would look great Westernized. I'll have to do some skimming through manga at Barnes and Noble.
