As a true daughter of Cardassia I dedicate this page to the beauty and art of the Cardassian Union

Newest edition to my Star Trek drawing collection. This drawing of Marc Alaimo as Gul Dukat from DS9 was done in charcoal and pencil. Here’s to all the DS9 fans out there! 🖖🏻⭐️👽 #startrek #startrekds9 #startrekart #fanart #cardassian #marcalaimo #guldukat #ds925 #ds9 #theds9documentary

as for the people who are somehow still following

I quit this blog several years ago. I just didn’t have to energy and time anymore to keep it up. The DS9 fandom on tumblr had grown from very very tiny, to big and healthy. My blog just didn’t feel needed anymore.

Don’t wanna delete all the nice content on here though, and I spent a lot of time on my Tags page! The links wont work properly thanks to the “-blog” that got added to my url. So you’re gonna have to add that manually.

Vintage Cardassian Shuttle

Profile: Disused model of a small auxiliary craft that was once typical in the Cardassian Union. A few are still in service although most have been mothballed. Warp capable.

The best part about watching DS9′s Civilian Defense is watching Dukat beam into the station, gloat at the crew for triggering the auto-destruct sequence, and then when he tries to leave realizes that his former boss locked him out of the system and trapped him in the station too. 

But my favorite part is Garak slowly getting annoyed and exasperated with Dukat’s slimy attempts to impress Kira.

He’s progression of done-ness is amazing

Garak hates Dukat so much. And he’s right Kira would never fall for Dukat’s slimy charm. 

One of the things I love about this show is that the actors push back at the writers when they feel it’s not something their character would do, it doesn’t always work but I’m so so glad Nana Visitor put her foot down on any Kira and Dukat romance. 

Also, a bit of foreshadowing there with Dukat’s father, that his ambitions got the better of his love for Cardassia. This is something that drove Dukat to form the alliance with the Dominion in the first place.

IT’S FINALLY DONE!!! Well, for the most part! I want to go back in with a black fine tip marker and maybe a white gel pen to add a bit more detail, but HEY! IT’S PRACTICALLY DONE!!
