and the challenge with Luke in his T-16 skyhopper in Beggar's canyon.
I made it as a comic with Luke and Biggs in the skyhopper and Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon (ghost) commenting

Yay, comics! That reminds me, I still need to get to work on my challenge... I like the texturing of the canyon walls. Quick tip on comic lettering; usually comics are lettered in all caps, as that makes them easier to read and the letters stay uniform. Also, a small tail on the word balloon pointing to the relative vicinity of the speaker's mouth or head (as funny as it would be to see, try to avoid having a character talk out of their butt. ) helps to denote who is speaking. Though, keeping the word balloons beside the heads does help, without the tails, it denotes a caption or a thought box (thought balloons have been largely phased out, replaced by monologue caption boxes).

I like the lack of panel borders and gutters, it gives the image more of a montage feel, like a splash page, rather than a sequential page. Many comic artists have been going that route, as it is similar to the ever-popular manga that kids read these days, and it's an attempt to make a still medium more akin to a movie, i.e. cinematic storytelling.

 

TrakNar thanks fror you comments. It was my first comic and done in acryllics.

I have finished another drawing for Refuge and started with a new work in progress

and the work in progress

only a small part of the large oilpainting and about A4 in size

 

Always love your work in progress doku!

 

Thank you AzureAngel2

and here is the second layer

That looks almost like the shroud of the Dark Side.

 

Very nice!! I like the colors and shading. How many layers do you plan to add?

 

That is shaping up rather nicely!

I also love how you did the canyon walls, the strokes and direction of them, to me, gives a sense of speed for the T-16 run through Beggar's Canyon.

 

a face is usually done by me with five or six layers each time adding little colour or brightening things up

Thank you. acryllic is dry in a short time and with water and white paint you can add the highlights. It's unlike oils that can take layer after layer

I have added another one to the face

And this one is the picture I have added using scans from a book-cover and excel and paint to make a cover

Very nice! I particularly like the first

 

Yeah, the first one is quite nice. I like the shading.

Your coloured art is quite stunning. You seem to handle the colours well . (Although as for the title , I am not sure if 'horses' exist in the GFFA .

 

thank you and 'horses' are in my fics and they are called husans and are a bit different from 'terran' horses

this one is a WIP for a new fic I have on beyond in the fanfiction part

Your oil painting has turned out beautifully! I love the serene atmosphere; the man and the horse, the surf rolling behind them and the skies above.

It is lovely seeing the early stages and how it evolved to the final piece.
