Manip - Belonging to each other

Title: Belonging to each other
Artist: Hakka ( [personal profile] prue84 )
Fandom: Star Trek (reboot)
Pairing: Kirk/Spock
Characters: James Kirk, Spock
Rating: PG-13
Tagline: Jim and Spock in an intimate moment.
Notes: I stumbled upon this lovely image and I just had to use it. I'm definitely satisfied of the result. It's been a feat to find the right pic for Quinto: I needed a very big pic, with a pose that would fit and hopefully even a look that would fit. I managed, but I swore so much because the perfect pic (him with closed eyes) for some reasons didn't work (I don't really remember why, I did this manip a month ago and let it linger on the hard drive).
It took me an awful amount of time to find a title, and it still sucks, but... yeah.
Notes #2: Not talking about this manip in specific - I'm actually quite pleased of how this turned out - But, let me tell you something.
If you're a fan-manipper, especially someone who is approaching this hobby, let me give you an advice: never ever ever work with HQ pics that are bigger that 1024. It's a nightmare and most of the times the results aren't even good, especially if you work with a colored image. Really, stick to images less big. Or abuse the "rescale" command: don't be an ass*le like me, use that damn rescale, the quality will enormously improve.
Just don’t be like me and you’ll save your own damn liver.

Thank you so much! <3

Actually, if there's something I hate is the five-o'clock, perhaps because I've grown up with a dad who hasn't it so I instinctively hate it? LOL

Anyway. Apparently Zach loves is, because it's virtually impossible to find a shaved!Zach pic, especially in HQ.
I always wondered if Vulcans have beard, by the way. Nimoy never showed any shadow, but Zach... well, he does even when he's just shaved. Poor guy!


Digressing here. Thank you again!

Let me introduce you to Spock's brother, Sybok, from the fifth TOS movie... :-)

Ok, I had forgotten about Sybok. I probably live in denial about the existence of this Hippie guy. XD XD
So, bearded Vulcans. Now I have the image stuck in my mind of Vulcans with the a-la-Merlin beard. A Vulcan!Gandalf. Oh my god, what have you done. O_o

This is very, very well done! I so envy people who can draw or paint or sculpt. I love it.
