Description
Star Trek Reboot. (ie the new movie)

Closeups from Dark Reflections, the mirrorverse AU painting.

I thought it might be interesting to show these three portraits at approximately 50% their original size. They are a little more polished than the sketch I did for the walkthrough tutorial, [link] but a very similar technique.

The concept is the new characters in their version of the Mirror Mirror universe. I wanted them to look slightly different from the originals, so I used reference photos of the actors rather than the characters, which had the added advantage of different hair style for McCoy, (I think works better for the Mirrorverse). I also deliberately scruffed up both Chekov and McCoy, but kept Kirk looking shiny - because it amused me to have a neater version in the mirrorverse ( and he looks thoroughly scruffed up throughout the new movie).
