Lol maybe one day if I finished the book .

 

I like the work you have done on the exhaust trails from the fighters, gives everything a good sense of direction and movement.

 

DoI spot An ARC-170 ?

 

I like those but weren't those pretty much the predecessors to The X-Wings ?

 

Powerful. I like it.

 

I hope there are a few Force ghosts forthcoming.

 

That's pretty cool...yeah a lot of animation artists use the expressions/facial appearance of the voice artists with the most glaring example I can think of off the top of my head are Yoda and Poe from the Kung Fu Panda movies where he looks very similar to Jack Black .

 

Nice pic my friend. As much as I would have liked the idea of Anakin visiting Luke during his exile, I really hope they never let us know it happened. The reason behind this is because to me, that would make Luke seem like even more of a loser than he already seems to be in TFA. Now, this comment has nothing to do with the fact of me liking TFA or not but think about it for a moment. SW was mainly the story about Luke and he was awesome. Luke was a fantastic character that was real lifelike. He was so full of hope and he was so heroic yet he was so full of flaws contrary to Rey who is incredibly perfect at everything.

When we meet Luke, he was just a whinny farm boy that didn't even want to get involved in the conflict of the Rebelion vs the Empire yet his destiny led him right there. Luke was brave but impulsive and he was shortsighted and had his fears but the one thing I mostly loved about Luke was his love for his friends. Even after being warned by both Ben Kenobi and Yoda, Luke completely abandoned his training for the love of his friends. He was brave in fighting Vader yet instead of being Force pumped with guy power and beating Vader in his first duel, Luke lost and it literally cost him his hand.

Once again, Luke, motivated by the love for his friends, comes up with a crazy plan that had so many imperfections that if Ben would have been there, he would have taken back his words and he would have said he really believed in luck. Just think about it for a second and analize all the things that could have gone wrong with Luke's plan. Jabba could have happily exchanged R2 and C3PO for Han and Luke would have lost both his droids and his lightsaber. Or what if EV-9D9 had not decided to send R2 to the sail barge? When he made his plan and stuck his lightsaber in R2, Luke didn't know that he and R2 would end up at the same place when he needed his saber. R2 could have easily been left in the dungeon and the Sarlacc would have eaten our heroes just fine and Leia would have learned if humans could have Hutt babies. What if Jabba would have decided to toss Leia to the Rancor for freeing Han? Luke had no idea that Jabba needed a replacement dancing girl so what were the odds of she being alive when Luke finally arrived?

He almost killed his own father whom he was trying to save and in a fit of rage no less the very moment that he saw that his sister could be put in danger. We see all these things and yet it goes to show us the risks that Luke was willing to take for those he loved. He had his merits yet he had his flaws but nothing could stand in the way of Luke doing whatever he had to do in order to be there for those he loved.

Enter TFA. Here we see a cowardly Luke who abandoned his friends and family which he had risked so much for in the past just because his freaky John Travolta clone nephew was a loser who wanted to be bad and he murdered his students. Luke ran away from it all and he didn't even leave his loved ones a way to get to him. Kylo Ren was his problem and Luke just left his trash for others to clean and he just turned tale and ran. Han Solo, the very best friend he had risked so much to save in the past is now dead thanks to Luke being a coward.

Enter the Force Ghost theory. If indeed they would have appeared to Luke, what would they have said? Wouldn't they have tried to goad Luke into action? They know that because of Luke's inaction the Force was dormant so wouldn't they have tried to convince him to take action? Wouldn't Yoda have tried to aid Luke? Wouldn't Anakin have tried to help Luke see he was making a mistake by turning tail and letting Snoke burn down the galaxy? Yet if this were to have happened, we would see that Luke was just to busy mopping to even care as it had to fall on Rey's hands to finally be the one to get Luke to do something and sadly to me, this would ruin Luke as a character even more.

 

Photoshop ?

 

This is very neat
