Spirk - Blog Posts

For the first one, I blame the one person who can make me draw anything. I still don't know were she got this power. I may color this one.

The second I just thought was an adorable idea, and had to draw it after I read it in a couple of fics in a row.

Can't remember what made me draw the last one.

Finished. Makes me happy. Except for the background, which is meh, but whatevs to me. >>; 

This image would not leave me alone....so I sketched it out in PS CS5, but I need to take a break....and I wanted to post the WIP....I'll probably change a few things as I line it and stuff. 

I have so much to say about these I almost feel bad...but I'll try not to over type.

I hope it will be noted that faces=optional in my art. Also, I draw girls way better then guys, so most of my anatomy is overly curvy...I'm working on being able to draw more then just girly looking men. But for now...eh What you see is what you get.  

I'm embarrassed to say, but need to clarify, first and last art is supposed to be Destiel.....supposed...middle is s/k. Which is hopefully more recognizable. I'm still working on making people look any kind of realistic.

NSFW? I think clothes are overrated....but I'm not yet comfortable with too many details...also working on my confidence.

P.S. I have a bit of a wing fetish....expect to see them a lot in my art.

Older drawings....but I thought they would be alright for a first arts type of post....and a learning experience.

Punched into the friendzone

It's giving:

I've yet to watch aos but honestly as a spirk shipper idrc abt spuhura cause for some reason star trek writers are obsessed with making Spock this bad boy, ladies man of sorts so whateverrr BUT from what I've seen aos just messed up uhura as a character in generalll! It's why I don't wanna watch aos like from what I've seen tos the show made in the 60s gave her more personality and whimsey etc than her 09 counterpart...

Iike ik 09 was the year where "Haha overly srs women in a group of boys" was the IT trope but cmon... don't do my girl dirty like that💔

Ramblings about Spuhura in AOS (this got a bit long)

I thought I didn't really mind Spuhura in AOS, but I think it really messes up the characterisation of Spock. They just didn't have a plan where to take that relationship. I feel like the extent to their thinking was well Uhura is hot and people will be surprised to see repressed Spock in a relationship, but they didn't want to flesh out her character. And they (rightfully) made Kirk and Spock have the most important relationship in the movies, so Uhura is supposed to be important to Spock, but we rarely feel the weight of that.

So in the end Spock kind of looks like a bad boyfriend, because his most important emotional scenes, the moments he loses his control are all with Kirk. Which is great because it reinforces Spirk, but Uhura just stays an afterthought and they could have done so much more with her character. I saw this interview where Zoe Saldana seemed glad that Uhura and Spock had broken up in Beyond because he had been her teacher and maybe she had outgrown that relationship. I mean even the actor thought more about this than the filmmakers!

And how does it reflect on Spock that he chose a relationship with his student? I know me too hadn't happened in 2009, but in TOS in the 60s they managed to make Kirk a compelling character by making him not sleep with his subordinates. And showing this impossibility to find personal happiness at his job as a struggle for him. Which makes him likeable.

I think they didn't understand what the relationship between Kirk and Spock really symbolizes, how it outweighs every other connection. They just wanted to build on something that already existed and took it for granted.

And yes, this is an alternate universe, but if you reboot Kirk and Spock, it needs to be done right. And isn't the beauty of it all that Spock learns about emotions from Kirk, this open minded, kind hearted man, that does not judge him. And for that you need to have Spock start in a place of relative isolation. There are alternate universes and then there is misunderstanding characters to a point you are losing their essence.

Tos au where Spock & Bones are the devil & angel on Jim's shoulder Spock being the angel and Bones being the devil... except Spock is an enabler and Bones ends up being the only one in the group with any survival instincts.

Shore leave!!...

(made this a while ago haha)

My favorite part abt the star trek fandom especially the tos one is that as an outsider you'd see someone talk abt a plot from the show and you'd probably be like "damn what fan fic plot is this?" Only to actually watch the show and realise it was not fanon but canon..

spirk kiss doodle please?? 🥺

*mwah*

Major art block so if you guys want me to doodle you smth fandom related send me an ask :3

Obsessed with the idea that Spock is considered a "bad boy" in vulcan.

I'd like a fic where kirk and the others have a Misson on vulcan and one of the crew members overhears some gossiping vulcans and than one thing leads to another and Spocks status as bad boy supreme is revealed.

Bones probably: gosh if Spock is what they consider a "bad boy" I'd hate to see what they consider a "good boy"

Meanwhile Spock is panicking cause Jim just found out how important physical touch really is to vulcans

Anyone got any good Spirk fic recs :D

The only people accusing this man of being straight are the sng writers at this point 😭

Vulcans would be distressed at the state of modern slang😭😭

Random ensign 1000: Wow thanks for helping me Mr, Spock! You're the GOAT!

Spock: I am not a goat.

A personal favorite dynamic of mine is ‘I would die for you’ and ‘Die? Who said you could die!? No! I will drag you back from the afterlife my self!’. Like yes the ‘I’d die for you’ energy is great, but when the other person responds with basically a ‘like hell you will!’ It’s probably one of my favorite things.

Hi Alen! I had an acquaintance of mine on Twitter ask where one of your Spirk pieces was -- the one with Jim is kissing Spock's back. I searched your socials and couldn't find it (btw, you're an incredible artist, I had to stop and admire your Merther pieces). If you could show me where I can find it I would be thankful. But if you have already been asked about this, or intentionally deleted it and do not want to be asked about it, I completely understand and you reserve the right to your privacy. Have an amazing day! <3

Found it if this is the one!! It's probably went online untagged, so it's all good

And thank you for the incredibly kind words 🖤🖤😭
