Seven of Nine
By request of a friend from work, here's a drawing of Seven of Nine from "Star Trek: Voyager". I always liked the character. I even remember reading Star Trek novel writer, Peter David, in his "But, I Digress" column in the late "Comics Buyers' Guide", had suggested a female Borg long before Seven of Nine appeared (and the Borg Queen from the Movie, too). At the time, the Producers just said all Borg were male and left it at that. Hmmm...
Anyhoo, I liked the character and have been doing some drawing in colored pencil lately, so figured "Sure, I'll do it... and post it on my Blog for good measure." It's a two-fer!

STEP ONE: Here's the start of the drawing sketched out with a black colored pencil on 8-1/2" x 11" toned cardstock.

STEP TWO: Hmmm, I thought I had scanned in the drawing sometime during the mid-point, but I thought wrong! Here's the finished drawing. It was done with a series of black, white, and gray colored pencils. The toned cardstock gives a nice, neutral value which can either be brightened or darkened, with the added bonus that it really makes the lighter areas pop out.
