    Hello, everyone! *waves*

    I have a passion for drawing sketches, painting and graphic design (icons, avatars, signature banners, wallpapers, etc).
    Right now, I will begin with posting icons and such (I hope that's okay).. since I need to find my SW fan art and my sketches to scan/take pictures of them, and then finally post them here. :)

    Blessings,

    ~Angelic Amidala

    Thought I'd make something dark with Darth Vader.. I figured I'd make Padmé appear kinda dark too (like she's a couple with Vader, lol), so I decided to call her "Lady Sith" in this signature banner. hehe.

    Hello Angelic_Amidala, and welcome to the Fan Art forum! If avatars and icons are your specialty, you might also take a look here--it's the Official Icon Thread over in Communications--they're always looking for new icons/icon artists. Feel free to inquire, post and participate there, as well!

    I like the sig/banner you designed, using Padme and Vader--the colors are wonderful, and the images blend for a good composition.

    We'll look forward to seeing more of your work! :D Again--welcome!

    This time, I made a banner with a good/lightside Padmé and Anakin. I wanted it to have an underlying, sad kind of tone, as if they're longing for each other.

    Nice composition there with the banner! :)
    The colours are very dark and Sithly, very nice!

    I like how on the wallpaper they seem to be facing one another, very nice again!
    Perhaps a sepia washover? That would look very nice, at the moment the colourful dress attracts attention away from the two other faces, but that's just my POV.

    Very nice stuff here, hope to see more!

    :)

    Amidala/Padmé as a "warrior queen".

    Thanks. :)

    Hmm.. yeah, you're probably right. Funny, I didn't notice that the dress was perhaps a bit too bright before, I was too busy with trying to acheive a harmony between dark and light colours to create some sort of balance in the banner. But anyways, thanks for pointing that out! :D

    More pretty pieces--you have a knack for choosing complimentary images for your compositions. In the "Looking Back" sig, the image of the two together, then the face shots of them separately is very effective, and the idea of them "looking back" at each other is also very evokative. Lovely (and, just for me, the bright hues of the gown work here...). In the "Warrior Queen" piece, you might just "ghost in" behind the text a very faded image of Amidala in her royal regalia--it would contrast nicely, I think, to the triptyc of the blaster-toting Padme, and really emphasize the two aspects of "Warrior" and "Queen." I love that quote, btw--if only more RL politicians held fast to values and integrity like that... **sighs wistfully** Wonderful work!

    Thank you, Falcon. :)

    I do try not to make my banners look to simplistic.. Yeah, the ghosting in idea is good, to bring out the two aspects of "Warrior" and "Queen" - really good idea! I tried something with it. (Yup, that quote is one of my favourites.. wish more politicians were like that.. =/)
    Here are a few variations:

    [image=http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a382/Suzanah-san/Star%20Wars/warriorqueen9copy.jpg]

    I really don't know which one is the best one out of them, lol. I guess it's up to the forum members to decide and judge on that.

    I like this latest banner--but the previous batch of images won't load for me, so I'll have to come back and check again later (could be Photobucket, could be my browser, which is notorious for messing up that way...). Very pretty "angel" banner!

    It was Photobucket's problem. I fixed it, so now you and everyone else can view the images again. :)

    Once again, thank you.

    The Princess Leia sigs are wonderful--I don't think I've seen any of those images of her before--where did you find them?

    And just a small suggestion: rather than posting every version of each banner/sig, choose a few of your favorites and post those. It can get a little fatiguing to look at the same image over and over; I understand your wanting to share all of them, but think I think it'd work better for the viewer to have just a few of each.

    Keep up the great work!
