Hey, what about this pic from TAoST? Is this guy a Tellarite? (from the Rura Penthe penal colony in TUC.)

According to the ST:The Experience Museum in Las Vegas he isn't a Tellarite but I forgot the name of his species.

Ahhhhh, but who writes those things. I think he is a "Star Trek VI" version of the Tellarites. Hairy, piggish snout (bit Michael Jacksonish/Julia Robertsish) plus sort of sunken eyes.

I doubt he is a Tellarite. This large guy was in the Khitomer meeting scenes, sitting in between the Romulan delegation. I assumed he was some kind of personal servant � la Maihar'du.

A servant to the Romulans, eh? A Reman, perhaps?

According to the script it was the Vulcan delegation. The IDIC symbol on the wall behind the delegation supports this.

They are Vulcans? Then this guy could after all be a Tellarite, albeit a big bad pointy-eared one. (Half-Vulcan, half-Tellarite? Eeeww)

Yes, I've rewatched the film and I think he is supposed to be a Tellarite. He seems to be wearing similar robes to the ones from TVH.

I think Tellarite, chewed ear or no chewed ear. Every film each new make-up artist puts his spin on aliens except for the Vulcans really... (this was until Westmore tookover for the TNG movies. Look at the tweaks to the Andorians and the Klingons! That is an intruging concept though, a Vulcan/Tellarite - his eyebrows look a little pointed. It's a wonder we don't get more 'bizarre' combinations of races in Trek.

If an Andorian met up with one of those yellow guys from the Khitomer conference (name!?!) would you get an orion slave girl!?! ;o)

Is red the only colour we haven't seen as an actual skin tone for a Trek race? Ingluatuu from the second season DS9 episode with the female Ferengi and the race from TOS' "The Apple" just had red body paint didn't they?

I seem to remember a red alien ... but, that could be from 'Star Wars' ...
