Star Trek
Obscure science fiction references continue. This references 60’s Star Trek’s racism episode. In episode there was alien race members with white left side and black right side. Other members had black left side and white right side. One of these groups abused and hated the other group with passion.
I need to start drawing Loomis heads again. It was hard to do after a while. Have been using references almost everything. Starting to lose drawing without reference skills.
It has been a while since I shared drawing or even draw anything. Had to binge some courses from Great Courses in Audible when they were still part of membership. Had quite extensive modern history course selection. One of courses argued Charles Darwin and Origin of Species had huge role changing world into what we have today. Was going to draw Darwin and someone else. Someone else turned out to be Nichelle Nichols’ Uhura. Her death was announce on day I draw this.
Drawing doesn’t have these persons randomly. Origin of Species was huge leap in scientific thinking. It can be seen as starting point of more scientific mindset. Few courses I took told history as relay from one important person to next. Drawing's idea is what Charles Darwin started could lead into Star Trek future. If you want a feel good story you should google what Martin Luther King told Nichelle when she planned to leave the show.
I have idea for comic/animation I would like to make. In current iteration of the idea one of the characters is partially based on Nichelle Nichols’ Uhura. Don’t know when or if I will make it. I try to find a way to get it from idea into something finished. Need to get animation or drawing skills better before I dare to try it. Found course I was looking for last time I tried animation. Maybe this time I can get far enough to actually get something out.
