Great drawing ๐Ÿ‘Œ I really like the shading.

[โ€“] BazaarMonk@lemmy.world 1 points 55 minutes ago

Thanks! I work in layers to build up the depth and texture. I start with an HB outline, then shade in HB before moving onto a darker lead. After I have the dark shadows established, I return to a lighter lead to work in the midtones and blend everything together.

Looks very professional!

It took a while to recognise Vader without the helmet, I first thought it was Bane from batman? And then one mentions Darth Bane to add to my confusion.

There's definitely a lot of Star Wars lore I'm missing.

[โ€“] BazaarMonk@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

Thanks a lot! I really appreciate it. Yeah, there is definitely a lot of lore to dive into.

This is fantastic work.

I know its not canon, but I wish Jar-Jar was there too.

[โ€“] BazaarMonk@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

Thank you! Jar-Jar would be a funny inclusion.

This is wonderful, and I love how Darth Bane is at the top! In my mind, he's the real originator of the Sith, despite not being the first. Although all my knowledge is non-canon because of fucking Disney, but regardless, great job!

[โ€“] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 3 points 5 hours ago

I see it as your knowledge is all canon, because fuck Disney!

[โ€“] BazaarMonk@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

Thank you so much! I totally agree.

Be funny if you left vader off and titled the post sith masters

[โ€“] heydo@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

I've seen a few of your drawings posted here on Lemmy. It's great stuff! Thanks for sharing!

[โ€“] BazaarMonk@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

Oh nice! Thank you so much. I really appreciate it.

What's the diamond-shaped object? I'm not familiar with that.

[โ€“] BazaarMonk@lemmy.world 5 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

That is the Sith Holocron.

[โ€“] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 2 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

I have one with the book of the Sith in it!

Thanks! And now I'm off to Wookiepedia!

[โ€“] BazaarMonk@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

No problem.
