Description This is Lt. Mress, from the animated series of Star Trek. I actually never saw it.

I did read the New Frontier books though, and I did a Google search to see what she looked like. I was kind of disappointed, so I went and drew her myself. Cause cat girls in Star Trek uniforms are always enjoyable.

She's supposed to be holding a Feinburger tricorder, but I was going off of memory and it's not especially accurate.

Not bad, not bad at all!  Her division insignia is on the wrong side, but not bad!

If you'd like to see The Animated Series, it's on Netflix if you can get that.

Oh, and a Feinberger is not the type of tricorder, they're the little hand-held devices that people using the tricorder (usually) wave over something or someone to feed data into the tricorder, they usually have a readout of their own on the bottom.  In 1966 reality, they were salt shakers that didn't look futuristic enough and were adapted by one Irving Feinberg to be 23rd century scientific gizmos.  Trivia!

Oh, my goodness, I didn't even notice. Dyslexia is a pain in the butt.

I did know they were salt shakers Feinberg found. There is something delightful about finding a Trekkie hardcore enough to even notice that kind of thing. That just made my morning.

I love the long hair and silky tail tuft that you drew on M'Ress! Very pretty! I hope another New Frontier book comes out soon. It's been a while!

I'm glad you like her! And I SO want him to hurry and write another novel. I was quite crushed when I realized I'd caught up to him.

I know that there have been some New Frontier comics out lately but I haven't been able to make it to a comic store lately to get them. But it's not the same to me at all. D: I prefer his novels to his comic works (despite my love of comics).

Oooh, haven't heard of the comics before... but yeah, a new novel would be very cool.

Heh, it probably is. I drew the whole uniform without a reference, just from memory. But thanks, I'm glad you like it!

Yeah, I thought she deserved more.... I found her in a book first, of course, so I had my own ideas about what she looked like before I did a wikipedia search on her.

She looks gorgeous! The head/face looks a little awkward, though.

When did Star Trek have an animated series??

Ryua In reply to Bug-Off [2008-03-29 05:23:25 +0000 UTC]

Sometime after the Original series went off the air. [link] There's the wikipedia page.

Her face was bothering me muchly... I've never drawn a muzzle like that before. This is the closest I got to happy with it, so this is how she stayed. Thanks a bunch!

Never heard of Sealab 2020? That cartoon that Cartoon Network's Adult Swim made fun of a few years back with a parody cartoon called Sealab 2021?
