Which brings us, inexorably, to Picard season three. Here, Section 31—although mostly offscreen—is as evil as it’s ever been depicted: We learn that not only did they engineer a bioweapon for use against the Changelings back during the Dominion War, but they also performed torturous medical experiments on Changeling prisoners of war. The revelations presented are truly heinous—even difficult to watch—and the entire season-long arc largely results from blowback against Section 31’s crimes against sentient life. And yet… the story pairs these revelations not only with complete legitimation of 31 as an organization, but complete acceptance of its crimes on the parts of our ostensible heroes. Worf—you know, the honourable guy? Whose friend, Odo, was deliberately infected with a plague by Section 31 with the intent of using him to wipe out his entire race? That Worf?—even calls them a “critical division of Starfleet Intelligence.” There’s one glorious moment where Picard actually looks sick upon hearing the extent of Section 31’s crimes; but then—arguably in the face of thirty-five years of consistent characterization—he and Dr. Crusher opt to compound them by executing a prisoner of war. This is never mentioned again. Just another day at the office, I suppose. We have, as an official, critical division of our humanist utopia of Starfleet, an organization that openly commits war crimes… and it’s just become part of the setting. It’s not even presented as a reason for Jack not to join Starfleet. One wonders if it was mentioned in the recruitment materials they gave out to the kids on Prodigy.

In progress pics of an ongoing commission for @the-lady-general who requested Emperor Georgiou and let me have free reign for the details. I'm trying out a mix of art deco and art nouveau elements.
I've been thinking about opening up art commissions in the future if folks are interested, but I confess I'm not completely sure what I should have for a pricing scheme, given my skill level.

Seeing the rumors of a Worf and Raffi spin off... And just... Could I be so bold as to suggest super spies Raffi, Seven, Laris and hell, Georgiou's lost in time - let's throw her in. Worf is their handler.

Come on, Universe. I deserve nice things.

Philippa Georgiou (Mirror) vs. Éowyn
Remember: don't vote on "who would win in a fight", but on "who, when given a task that fits her skillset and talents, would do that task better: more comprehensively, faster, with more pizzazz, with less collateral, etc."
Endorsements! "What is she good at?"
Emperor Philippa Georgiou Augustus Iaponius Centarius, Star Trek: "All Hail her most Imperial Majesty, Mother of the Fatherland, Overlord of Vulcan, Dominus of Kronos, Regina Andor" I mean do I have to introduce her????
Éowyn, The Lord of the Rings: Shieldmaiden of Rohan, damn competent with a sword and she knows she needs it - "The women of this country learned long ago, those without swords can still die upon them.", fights in battle even though she could have stayed home relatively safe, epic "I am no Man!" scene against the ring wraith
