Blake's 7 'Star One Compendium' artwork

I recently drew a combination of caricatures and other illustrations of Blake's 7 characters for the 'Star One Compendium', a collection of fanzine articles about the 70s/80s TV series. The caricatures were probably marginally easier to do as there were so many grotesques in the guest cast - see below. The b/w picture features the recurring villain Travis and my attempt to make the spaceships look a tad more dynamic than they did on screen.

First off is Number 2, alias Leo McKern from 'Once Upon A Time'.  Altogether now: Jack and Jill went up the hill...


And here are two larger-than-life characters from 'Living in Harmony', Kathy (Valerie French) and The Kid (Alexis Kanner)  -

I thought it was about time I uploaded a few more caricatures… so here we are. This group are all Star Trek related, a mix of regular and one-off characters and all drawn digitally. Firstly, the most well-known.

Chekov/ Walter Koenig:



Yeoman Colt from the first pilot episode:



And finally the maddest of the lot, Van Gelder himself from 'Dagger of the Mind':
