Good uses of insomnia

I had a bout of insomnia last night and was using it to work on my game.

At first I was trying to show a player what TOS era enlisted uniforms would look like as a jumper. Don't ask why, because I don't know, but I started playing around in Photoshop...

The player then asked if they were shorts, which I explained, "not really." Back to Photoshop:

Having fun, I decided to see what an operations (blue) uniform jumper would look like... and blonde? So I used Billie Piper to mock it up in Photoshop:

...alongside an Orion girl in the operations jumper:

But, wait, the orion character had served in operations back before the uniform change, meaning it should be beige instead of red:

And what would Billie Piper be doing in TOS without... The Doctor:

The Doctor, a.k.a. Commander John Smith, though still wearing that leather jacket of his...

Yay, insomnia! That was a productive use of my time! SMH

like the Doctor one.
Insomnia and creativity gets some strange mixes though. (been there done that, almost alienated my entire player group with one No sleep for 3 days post.)

Cool beans on the jumpers.

Yeah, the creativity is the thing I miss most about being an insomniac.

Okay, last edit, I swear. Eccleston was seriously bothering me, so I changed it around a bit.
