May the Force be with You
Okay, okay, as much as I am hesitant to admit it, I am looking forward to seeing the new Star Wars film (Episode 3). Well, to be more specific, I'm anxious to see more of Aayla Secura, the blue Twi'lek jedi knight (seen briefly in Episode 2). They promised to make her a more prominent character - or so I heard, anyway. The Twi'leks are my absolute favorite alien types in the Star Wars universe - especially the girls - so cute!
A while ago, I had started putting together a story about a teen Twi'lek girl named Aloo. She's actually the little sister of Oola, the ill-fated singer who danced for Jabba in Return of the Jedi. The basic idea of the story is that she finds that she, too, has the Force deep within her but chooses to use that power to seek revenge for her sister - hey, she's a kid, I mean, c'mon. What I want to do is embed her within the events happening during Luke's appearance at Jabba's and his successful rescue of his friends. (In other words, doing a parallel storyline inspired by Shadows of the Empire - a novel that takes place between Episode 5 and 6.) I may start roughing out a page or two should I find the time to. Below is a sketch of Aloo and her Jedi mentor, yet to be named.

Wow, those are great! I can't wait to see the rest of the development, eventually.
Actually they look really great, I kinda think the apprentice looks cute I dunno why.
They are really nice!!! both of them. and very good designs.
Twi'leks are my favorite type of creature/alien in Star Wars, although I have a soft spot for Wookies as well.
I'd like to see more sketches of your character as well.
I love star wars! And I love your comics Fairview High and the new Soulstone. I really like your Twi'lek Aloo. She looks totaly cute! And I love her jedi master. He kinda reminds me of Obi-won Kenobi. I hope you find a name for him soon. I can't wait to see more of your awsome comics. Good luck!
Aloo is cute, not only for the amazing artwork and talent you have, but a simple trick helps - her body is facing one direction and her eyes are looking another.
You probably know so many tricks we can't even spot them all. Excellent work. I wish you were writing instructional books.
Are you?
Love how you tied aloo into the Star Wars plot like that! also, awesome art, but that goes without saying. I hope you draw more of her and her master soon!
