I know this technically belongs in the Fan Art forum, but I doubt many of you Lit junkies frequent our humble section of TF.net boards.

I recently began illustrating scenes of some of the more obscure Jedi from the New Jedi Order series showing them at their last, and finest hour. Battling Yuuzhan Vong, Voxyn, or the Peace Brigade...I did my best to portray the mood and tone I interpreted while reading the NJO. I hope you agree.

Those are rather nice.

Though, why is everybody's favorite horse-girl wearing clothes?

Those are really great.

I'd love to see some of your take on Wurth, Ganner, Jacen, Kyp & Zekk.

Two reasons, I assume:

1) KJA's idea of appropriate material for a childrens book is so bad that even the denizens of the interwebs rebel against it.

2) Mazzic is not KJA... I think.

Those are excellent! You've definitely captured the mood of the NJO.

Well done -- I'd love to see more.

Canon is canon. When I was a kid, I'd seen National Geographic magazine: I understood some people just didn't think it was dirty.

I suspect it's so that he would be able to disseminate his work as widely as possible. That's my favorite pic of the above, btw.

This is an imaginary story... aren't they all supposed to fit together, though?
An animated cartoon about Obi-Wan and Padawan Anakin would have made more sense.

Despite not even having her chest showing, Lusa did have clothes on in her Who's Who in the New Jedi Order image. Apparently, at some point, Lusa finally realized she should cover up.

The whole Lusa thing is so lame. If she were part horse she'd have utters, as breasts wouldn't be able to be big enough to breastfeed, and that is what breasts are actually for. The whole half horse thing is weird. Do they hold their young or do the young fall around, prancing to keep up and where does she bathe? Why would you have two sets of organs? What's down there if she already has a heart and lungs in her human parts? How could she eat enough with her little mouth to nourish all that extra half ton?

I just laugh at Lusa, it's just silly.


BTW, the artwork is beautiful.

I imagine they hold their children, considering their breasts.

I must admit...I've never read anything from the YJK series. I was unaware of Lusa's (lack) of clothing issues.

These are gorgeous! There is a perfect blend between hard and soft shading, and the presense of blues and greens are the types of Star Wars environments I wish I'd see more often. Lusa is wearing a floral print blouse.

My only quip is that I can't see any Yuuzhan Vong faces. Just a personal preference, that's all.

Don't worry. I read them and was unaware. Beautiful artwork, if a bit sad. In a good way, though.
