Live Long and Pattern: Inking Spock with a Splash of Color

Bringing Leonard Nimoy Spock to Life with Pattern Color Ink

Ok for the prompt of pattern I really just wanted to let loose and do the ink illustration different. I decided to use color ink. This might actually be the first time I’ve ever used any color ink other than black for an ink drawing. For pattern I did the pattern that can be found in the reboot Kelvinverse Star Trek uniforms. When I think Star Trek I think of Spock.

I really tried to capture the likeness of Leonard Nimoy in this illustration. Although I did put him in the uniform from the reboot Star Trek film franchise. The fun thing about the new uniforms is the subtle repeated pattern of the Star Fleet insignia. I used blue ink to show the repeating pattern. I did get a little sloppy, I think I was a little impatient with the pattern. I still had fun illustrating it though.
