    Congratulations on being asked to design the back cover for the magazine, it has turned out amazing! That must have been a lot of work and planning to create those individual elements and combined to make the final piece. Well done! :)
    How did you find the experience?

    Thank you very much! I probably put around 150+ hours into it, and every second was worth it.

    The experience was, quite literally, a dream come true. I've honestly never thought my art was good enough for publishing, but to then see my signature on the cover of a magazine was almost too much 8D. Better yet, it was a Star Wars publication! I'm hoping I was able to make a few people smile and/or think of Neimoidians a little better, and, at the same time, perhaps get my name out there.

    From an artistic perspective, the whole cover was one big improvement process; I think, since then, I have a much better grasp of drawing hands (one of my biggest weaknesses) and, certainly, of colouring.

    Cool! Very well done. I wouldn't guess that you had any trouble with the hands, and the shading is lovely. :)
