Description Moar of my Star Wars sketchez continuing with my "themed episode by episode" theme, this time The Empire Strikes Back. More specifically the the officers behind the evacuation and battle planning on Hoth.

So, we have General Rieeken (cos he's oneof those cool but minor characters that gets left out a lot), Princess Leia, Han in his inuit gear and Luke in the Hoth flight suit. I reckon this is the best of the bunch so far and I enjoyed drawing it the most.

Next up Return of the Jedi! (unless I get sidetracked with other drawings I wanna do )

As soon as humanly possible!

Yeah way too fast! Same here man, last semester my digital imaging teachers was bad this time round we've got one who is all about making sure our work is absolutly "proffesional". One little fingerprint, not allowed to rub it out. NOpe, gotta start the whole thing again!

Wow thats fucked, just say the fingerprint is part of the artwork lol.... its abstract, showing the creators journey to the pieces completion.... and showing that not everything in the world is perfect, go into a philosophical debate about it

Then I get told I'm supposed to be a hardcore designer not a pansy artist and to go smoke croissants in France if I want to be philosophical. Or at least thats what I'd say to myself

Cool! I have an unrelated question for you. Are you getting Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings on either Wii or DS?

GraphiteFalcon In reply to Neo-Dark-Wolf [2009-07-20 07:29:58 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! Nah don't think I'll be getting it, might aquire it for the DS at some point though.

Neo-Dark-Wolf In reply to GraphiteFalcon [2009-07-20 08:38:41 +0000 UTC]

What about the new Kingdom Hearts game? The one with Roxas. Thats on DS, you getting it?

GraphiteFalcon In reply to Neo-Dark-Wolf [2009-07-20 11:34:37 +0000 UTC]

Definitely, I'll probably "aquire" it though, DS games are too damn expensive.

Neo-Dark-Wolf In reply to GraphiteFalcon [2009-07-20 12:40:32 +0000 UTC]

Not as expensive as 360 games.

GraphiteFalcon In reply to Neo-Dark-Wolf [2009-07-20 12:57:17 +0000 UTC]

Yeah but they're proportionally more expensive. $120 for a high end console game is over priced but 70 bucks for a handheld cosole with 3 inch screens is just criminal.

True. I might save up for a PSP soon. Get Crisis Core and that new Monster Hunter game.

Leia still looks too maga-ish for me to be Leia
Han looks a bit like Ash from Pokemon to me, but I love the way you've drawn the suit and glasses!
I don't really remember the first guy...
And Luke... still looks kind of strange, but indeed better than on previous one.

Heh well that can't really be helped, my style is to manga-ish to change that
Hehyeah I spose he does. Just remember though, that I'm not drawing a photo what I'm really trying to do is capture the personality of the character first and the likeness of the actor second.
