I was treated to something fun when I woke up today: Galaxy 7 has been released and my cards are popping up on eBay! Lucky collectors have found several of my inserts of SWG7, and to celebrate, I'm releasing a whole bunch of new images! This batch is:
(First off, remember the last contest of 2011 I held? Well, this batch includes cards I drew at the request of the winners! They are as follows...)
These cards were requested by the winners of a contest I held. That was prize! Lame, huh? They don't even get to keep the cards! haha But they did a great job! You can see their submissions here:
First I noticed Ben because I own a copy of the original picture and my reaction was, "Wow, if only the original picture had been this accurate with its details." Then I saw Anakin and was over the moon. He looks brilliant with the Solo grin showing. Thrawn of course is amazing as always. I could literally praise you forever but it might tire me out. So overall, I love it!
Some of these are actually some of my favorite characters, including Corran Horn. I like Corran because he's different from Han Solo and Luke Skywalker, though he shares a homeworld with the former. Corran Horn was a police officer on his homeworld, courtesy of his father's stepfather Rostek Horn, though he is naturally a Jedi descendant. I was hoping to do my own Ben Skywalker pic sooner or later, as well as a pic of Anakin Solo. Now Thrawn is one of the best Star Wars Expanded Universe villains; so meticulous and clever, yet very precise. Your work really hit home for me.
