Thanks! happy There are two competing visions of Thrawn: long, thin face (usually seen in the comics) and the wider face seen elsewhere (TIE Fighter, WEG sourcebooks, etc.) There are also a few illustrations that fall in the in-between category. I personally prefer the lean version, specifically the HttE comic or the TLC comic versions, and especially the Essential Chronology variant. I'm not quite trying to copy those, though.

Actually, I'm not completely happy with that black & white. The darkness around his eyes looks silly, like a super-hero mask or something. It'll look much better once I've manipulated it. But Droga and Kyle (actually, homework, then Kyle [me], then Kyle [Katarn], then Droga) come first... cool

I've gotten a look at the approved Grievous text.

Some minor changes, but it looks fairly intact.

I can now confirm that Joe Corroney has been hired to do the art. We're currently hammering out illustration possibilities.

Also, the full title of the article: "Unknown Soldier: The Story of General Grievous"

Take care,
Abel

Also, Rogue_Follower - as the helmet looks a tad funny, the stormtrooper doesn't have to have it on if you would prefer. happy

Yeah, it does look a bit odd. Maybe I'll change it later, if I get the chance.

happy

I aspire to. happy

Hopefully, I'll eventually be able to prove that I can write as well as draw (and hopefully my writing will be better than my drawing...)

I always imagined the Huks as being like Uruk-hai, despite them being described as insectile.

Wow! I do too, though it's just the posture and the whole feel...mine have 4 arms X_X

Strangely enough, I had a similar reaction. It must be in the sound of the name. Alas, the insect description changed my direction on the Huk... in appearance if not disposition.

Take care,
Abel
