Star Wars Illustrations by Russell Walks

Although his original goals included both becoming bionic and joining the rebellion against the Empire, Russell Walks eventually decided that his destiny lie along another path, and chose art school over adventure. Adept at both traditional and digital illustration & design, he has created art based on licensed properties for a variety of clients, including Lucasfilm, Paramount, Time/Warner, Disney and Marvel.

Walks is also a successful painter; his personal work has won both regional and national acclaim, and hangs in private collections throughout the world. He currently lives in Montana, where he spends his days drawing, painting and training hard for the next Kessel Run.

This is the introduction to Pearlescent Gray. Welcome! Not all posts will include this many pages though. For the next several weeks I will be post 2 pages per update until I catch up with pages I previewed over on my other blog, after which point it will be typically 1-2 pages per update, unless I’m having an especially productive month. Expect generally 1 update per week. Thanks for reading, and enjoy!

Please consider subscribing through Patreon and you’ll receive access to bonus content, free books, and more!

OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT!

Pearlescent Gray now has it’s own page that I will be updating weekly. Please check it out and follow, and if you feel so inclined you can subscribe via patreon.

I’m really hoping patreon works out because it could be a very helpful tool to allow cartoonists to no longer have to rush toward the goal of creating a book to receive payment for their work and will hopefully engender a movement of more high quality comics all around. But I don’t know, let me know what you think!

So anyway: Follow, Subscribe, and/or Spread the word!
