Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back

I think the only movie I am looking forward to seeing this year is Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens. Unfortunately that movie doesn't come out till the end of the year, and I have been purposely not trying to follow to closely the plot details or character descriptions because I really want to be surprised as to what JJ Abrams delivered on screen. I already have low expectations because the self hype I felt when the Prequels came out was diminished greatly by the final production. Still this new film has sparked the creative fire for my favorite Star Wars film: The Empire Strikes Back.

May the Fourth be with you!

 

The new cast listing for Star Wars Episode VII came out and I'm excited for the new movie, but J.J. 

WHERE IS LANDO CALRISSIAN!!!

We get to see what's happening with Luke, Leia, Han, Chewie, R2, C-3PO, but we can't catch up with the man who helped blow up the second DEATH STAR! Did I mention that the Death Star was operational? 

Sure the man was a scoundrel in his past days, I mean, what good Star Wars character wasn't? (*Cough*, Han Solo) He has since mended his ways and fought bravely for the Alliance on multiple occasions. Movie gods, let this man live and help the Star Wars Universe once more.

On another note. I'm glad to to see John Boyega kick some more alien butt. If you didn't know he was the chap from:

I've been sketching...

I promised myself that I would draw more this year to sharpen my skills. My goal was to sketch something everyday...

That's not really working out because sometimes I'm busy, tired, uninspired, or generally lazy. All excuses in my mind.

Still, take a look at what I have done this year. Most of these drawings I posted on my Instagram account already. If you have Instagram follow me here: http://instagram.com/darianrobbins#
I will follow you back.

Want to get away? Try the planet of Tatoonie. It's a backwater world, but there is some adventure to be had there. Sometimes you find Droids...although not the ones you are usually looking for.

 

Some fan art for the New Year featuring a Millenium Falcon Icon created by my friend and amazing visual designer Steve Morris. Visit his website here at www.stevemorrisdesign.com and see some of his work on https://www.behance.net/stevemorris

He's inspired me to do a couple more #StarWars related Travel Posters, look for them in the near future.

Happy Star Wars Day!

May the Force (Fourth) be with you!
