BrezzacDkullia.jpg (79820 bytes)
Here is another shot of Brezzic Mar; however, D'Kullia has the upper hand. I was
originally thinking of her doing a slashing movement with a trail of blood leading
back behind her, but I thought the drama just before the kill was better than the
act of actual killing.

Model4Gentry.jpg (101843 bytes)  GentryColourSktch.jpg (75951 bytes)
Above is where David's character Gentry sprang from. Our fellow is much nicer,
though, not the type to chop you up for stuffing. He mellowed out even more on the
final poster.

VelexaVORNE.jpg (81818 bytes)
Velexa and Tarc are arch-enemies and Torel Vorne is also on her hit list. They have
tried to be the other's undoing on more than one occasion. Tarc was inspired by a
b&w drawing, I think from the book Fragments from the Rim... Above is Velexa and
Vorne.

UmiROD.jpg (36998 bytes)  UmiROD1.jpg (136056 bytes)
I wanted to figure out the best angle from which to draw Umi when she was hitting
the ground with shockwaves all around. Although the effects of the blast were more
noticeable from the side, I wasn't sure I could fit her in the space I wanted to
from that angle. I think I still pulled off the same effect I wanted from the front
view.

TarcNVorne.jpg (61465 bytes)I really struggled with how I was going to show Tarc crushing Torel Vorne's windpipe with the use of the Force. I decided to have them far apart in the drawing instead of Tarc's victim clinging to his killer's cape. That way I could also throw in the bounty hunters who appeared to allow Tarc's escape. We could not get him; and as his ship left, this view of the bounty hunters appeared as the ship's wake blew dust and sand around them. Just before he left,
Tarc threw Velexa a data pad that said BOUNTY: paid in full. Velexa had placed a bounty on Torel Vorne; Tarc killed him, taking away her chance to get revenge. Later on in subsequent adventures, Crovax becomes her mentor as well as her love, and he teaches her the way of the Force and starts to help her steer clear of the Dark Side of the Force.

Poster2sketch.jpg (97708 bytes)Originally I wanted to add a lot more monsters and characters, but left some out: I could not leave out the idea that shapeshifters were involved in deception (not by their own design; they were being drugged and given chips to control their brains -- to become obedient assassins). The ruins were important because that is where we three ladies all found Force-embued instruments: Umi found a staff; D'Kullia found a helm and breastplate; Velexa found a necklace. I did want to keep Jakmon as more of a centerpiece for the most intense action: him flying out of the mine shaft to try to stop Tarc and Vorne. There were also some creatures that we encountered: if it wasn't for the rock eating creature that tried to eat our skiff, we wouldn't have found out that Ikcin was not really Ikcin -- turns out she was a Shi'ado. Another shapeshifter was actually using the mushroom counteragent against the Imperial truth serum to control or experiment on his own kind. Apparently the enzymes from the mushroom reactived differently with the Shi'ado's body chemistry. The spinewolves lived inside the mines and at one point we weren't sure who was being hunted. Aside from changing placement for what I felt just fit better, I chose to place Tarc on the right lower corner, as though he was going to escape from us off the page into
oblivion where we couldn't find him, as he always seems to manage to do!
