A vignette illustration for brighteyed_jill's Star Trek Big Bang story 'We Have Loved the Stars Too Fondly to be Fearful of the Night'. Swine flu sort of destroyed most of the time I set away for this but, here we are. This story was an absolute pleasure to read and I hope you shower it with all the love and attention it deserves. It consumed quite a few of my

HOORAY! *flails with glee* This is so lovely, dear. You've done a great job capturing Chekov's expression: he looks scared but trying not to show it and trying to be good and obedient. His tousled hair is too cute. And his collar is awesome! I also like all the little details on McCoy (eyelash FTW!). You are amazing!

lol, I'm glad you like it. I know I didn't get to talk to you a lot during this but I wanted you to know I LOVED your story. I kept waiting and waiting for those little bits and pieces to be filled in so I could read it again the entire way through. Fantastic job.

Thank you! You're very kind.

*breathes huge sight of relief and joy*

This is simply an amazing picture and probably the best I've seen out of the BB yet. *_____* You have a beautiful style, i love the brushstrokes and the simple yet soo appropriate palette! Chekov's expression is just so very dear and the whole atmosphere is simply lovely!

This has given me hope in a way i can't even express right now. THANK YOU FOR BEING AN INSPIRATION! :)

Wow, thank you so much! I was really nervous about posting this but you've given me some encouragement. I'm so glad you liked it.

NO PROBLEM. HOPE IT DO IT AGAIN SOON (xd).

Beautiful! I love your brushstrokes because they are part of how expressive and alive the scene and the characters look, which is awesome. And colour swabs you used to shade and tone Chekov's face are brilliant! I love colour swabbing so much. Bones' ear and eyelashes are things close to perfection. So pretty, I keep wanting to touch it. XD
