Artist's Comments

I made this to submit to the fan art contest on the Darth Artsy Live Journal Community for the 30th anniversary of A New Hope.

I so wanted to be Princess Leia when I was a little kid. She got to fight right along with the guys, helps to rescue her rescuers, and winds up with Han Solo in the end. Not a bad deal at all.

This started out on watercolor paper with brown pencil and ink washes and was then digitally colored in Photoshop with my tablet. Completed in January of 2007.

Impressive. I love the way your bored her face with the white blotches of paint. Her expression is wonderful. I like how her head is slightly tilted and that she's looking off to the side. The fact that her hoods up just goes with the picture. It shows how uptight she is at this moment. With her eyes looking pensive and everything! Okay... time to shut up now.

Did I mention it was great?

I was a Princess Leia fan as a child for all those same reasons!

It's a great likeness! Well done.
