Featured Artist Craig Burt-Painting by Numbers 2

Featured Artist Craig Burt has sent in another breakdown of one of his sketches that provides us with a look into how the picture came about. Here is some of the article created by Craig:

Bail Out progressive

This picture is obviously not a painting but a drawing. I think it was from a time when I was a bit sick of paintings, so I went back to basics and did a simple drawing in pencil. The name 'Bail Out' refers to an 'out' for Leia - an escape or new path - from the situation into which she was born.

Be sure to read the rest of the article about Bail Out progressive in the Featured Artist section. Thanks Craig for another great walkthrough of how this image came about! You can really see the symbolism once you understand what Craig was thinking at the time the picture was created! Enjoy!

T'bone's Star Wars Universe Turns 10!

T'bone has reached a milestone that many websites in the Star Wars community will never see. T'bone's Star Wars Universe is 10 years old this month and that is quite an accomplishment! Congrats and Happy Birthday TBSWU! Many of you may remember back in the day when the site was called T'bone Fender's Star Wars Universe.

Later, T'bone joined up with Fandom.com which was then bought out by Cinescape.com. Now that T'bone has been back on his own for a while, he has decided to re-vamp the website for the occasion. He has started running a news content management system for the first time and you also have the ability to choose the skin for the site that you like best!

It seems that there will be many more new things to come in the future from T'bone, and we wish him all the best and continued success as a leader in the Star Wars website community!
