To Be or Not To Be

Description

"You have not experienced Shakespeare until you have read him in the original Klingon." - Chancellor Gorkon, Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country

This now classic tongue-in-cheek line was the impetus for this design as well as my Halloween costume last year (yes, I actually went as Klingon Hamlet, or Khamlet, as I called it). For those of you whose Klingon is a tad rusty, the text translates as "To Be or Not To Be".

Qapla'!!!

Awww, Gorkon! :heart: He began my Klingon obsession a while ago :) I am actually deep in the middle of some epic Klingon projects right now :squee:

1. Playing Azetbur for Halloween :squee:
2. 3D renders of Korrd, Gorkon, and Azetbur ukuleleworld.deviantart.com/jo…
3. Campaigning for #WeWantWorf / the hopefully upcoming "Captain Worf" series, with Klingon-like intensity :squee: ukuleleworld.deviantart.com/jo…
4. Expanding on my fanon which brings back dear Gorkon- a necessary portion of an upcoming fanfic or artwork is Gorkon telling his astonished friends that he and Chang were "merely playing Shakespeare's Macbeth" :heart: (Gorkon as King Duncan, Chang as Macbeth :happycry:ukuleleworld.deviantart.com/jo…
5. Plenty of Klingon-related music videos in my gallery, each link is in a piece of artwork in my gallery labeled "Includes video" :D
P.S. I made the sweet Gorkon emoji, there will be more to come :) Klingon Chancellor Gorkon Kind Face Smile Nod
