Star Trek: Origins - Illustrated Art Print
Hot on the heels of my recent JJ Abrams NuTrek inspired Illustrated posters, I was introduced to Thomas Olivri over at Geek-Art in Paris. They hold exclusive gallery shows at Dernier Bar Avant la Fin du Monde (Last Bar Before the End of the World ). Their next show, Final Frontier is an Art Tribute to Star Trek and will also feature new art from my wonderfully talented friends Samuel Ho, Matt Ferguson, Marie Bergeron and many more.
Prints are very limited so if you have your eye on something, don' t hang about. I am told there will be only 20 of each artwork available!
When I began thinking about what to create for this show, I realised the Trek Universe is vast, many vessels, many Captains, many different shows, I could pretty much go in any direction on this. It was however a no brainer after tackling the latest incarnation of Star Trek to now 'boldly go' back to the roots of Star Trek's memorable characters from the original series.
I wanted to keep a similar illustrated movie poster feel to the Illustrations I had just recently created for Star Trek (2009) and Into Darkness. The prints will measure 50 x 70 cm (19.7 x 27.5" approx).
Hope you like it...
Live Long and Prosper!

Star Trek - Illustrated Poster Art
It's Star Trek month over at Planet Pulp and I finally get to illustrate a Trek poster!
I was quite vocal about the film poster campaign when the first JJ Abrams Star Trek was released... and I did say I would have a go at an illustrated version of the poster, well, just as the next instalment of the reborn franchise is upon us, I finally got round to it. Projects dont usually take me 4 years to complete by the way! I actually roughed this out after re-watching the film again last week, comped it up on Friday night, drawing Saturday and Sunday and finishing it after a full day on Monday... so 4 days (not years)
There is a tip of the hat here to Bob Peak's amazing poster illustration for ST:TMP and it felt right to do that to me...also managed to incorporate Nero's drill in there too.
Hope you all like it - Very excited about the next film, 'Into Darkness' maybe a companion poster will emerge?...
JJ Abrams really did a great thing with making this movie, I was kind of into Trek growing up, mainly because it was Sci-Fi (Star Wars was top dog at the time) but JJ Abrams definitely sealed the deal for me when he made this!
