from 1999

For being late 1970’s slapstick, campy shlock, Quark actually wasn’t that bad.  My wife, of course, has a very differnt opinion! After watching all of the tape, I went back through it, sketch pad nearby, with my thumb poised over the “PAUSE” button for the VCR.  I gathered enough data to do a rough model of the garbage ship that Commander Adam Quark flew for the UGSP (United Galaxy Sanitation Patrol).  I’m debating doing a more detailed and larger ship; I might, but I have a few other projects with higher priorities (like finishing the paint job on that too-darn-big Enterprise-E).  But this was just plain fun to do, and after making the drawings, the ship construction went very quickly.
