Never really done much work with color, like at all, so I am starting to practice now that I won’t have to spend a billion dollars on various kinds of paints/charcoals/whatever-the-fuck-else that will end up cluttering my desk and floor. I figured a good start would be my old friend Superman, in his primary color glory. 

I’ve sort of fallen out of love with the superhero genre as I’ve gotten older, but big blue is in a league of his own, and even with my disinterest in serial Comics in general I will always have a special place in my heart for the character and a great many of the stories on printed page and animation cells both that have made him great over the generations.

Version 2/2

Mandalorian security forces capture a rogue Jedi on a rampage through their city.

Wasn’t entirely happy with the perspective, so I kept the setting simple for this version.

[mykingdomforaneraser]

Version 1/2

Mandalorian troops corner a rogue Jedi in the forest.

My new tablet enables me to play with layers and make all sorts of variations and such, so after I drew this background/setting I decided to add another character and do a different setting.

Twi’lek partisans and their Jedi leader having a frank conversation. Nominally from my Star Wars canon divergence fic.

[mykingdomforaneraser]

A Jedi Knight squares off with a Jedi from another sect.

Mandalorian Merc

[mykingdomforaneraser]

A crowd of Mando mercs watching something very intently. Probably a street brawl, and they're critiquing it.

I'm noticing now that a lot of my recent drawings are of one or several figures standing to the left, looking off towards the right middle distance. Hm.

Sci fi Pistols

[mykingdomforaneraser]

Got a drawing tablet, been having a lot of fun with it. Here’s a Mando tracking his quarry.

This was originally just meant as an outline for a scene in my Star Wars fic, but I ended up fleshing it out a bit more. Basically, a lone clone security force is isolated and surrounded by well armed militia and civilians, and they have to choose between their offer of giving up peacefully and deserting the Imperial Army with free passage anywhere they choose, or staying to fight and inevitably die for nothing. This Grizzled vet on the LMG has seen fighting across the galaxy since nearly the start of the war, and his quiet calm speaks more than anything else his brothers have said.

A character from my Star Wars canon divergence fic, an agent of a Republic communications “analysis” division within a large law enforcement agency. She is an excellent slicer and investigator, but doesn’t get out much. This changes after a chance encounter with a Captain Rex, and after he gets her out of a tight spot, she starts helping him with his ongoing investigation into the death of ARC trooper Fives and the dark implications of the circumstances around his final days.

She is relatively quick to go all in, being a very principled person in the first place, with a desire and tendency to act decisively. Before this she spent her time busting slave traffickers and the crime lords they serve, so danger is not entirely unknown to her. However, as they delve deeper into the nature of the Clone army and it’s origins, as well as the subtle maneuverings of the political classes in the the leadup to Geonosis and in the course of the war, she experiences a whole new level of risk. Though her job doesn’t require her to carry a gun, she is allowed to carry as a sworn officer of the Galactic Republic in most government buildings and other places where regular civilians might not be permitted to carry. So, at the recommendation of Rex and her own gut feeling, she buys a sidearm and begins carrying at all times.

Some more Mandalorians I've had in my drafts.

Really enjoying the direction of the Mandalorian, starting to expand the scope of it. I'm a sucker for gritty western adventures, but I also love military/political intrigue and action. Which still fits the western theme historically speaking so we don't have to lose that.

Also thank god they have dispelled any doubt about the nature of that stupid ass helmet rule. That was going to drive me up the wall pretty quick here. Whew.

Aayla Secura from my Order 66 divergence story. Hiding out with Bly on a far flung backwater world, carving a simple and quiet- even happy- existence out of the wilderness.

[mykingdomforaneraser]

Mandalorians without helmets.

Some Star wars weapons concepts for my own stories and characters.

Inktober day 31.

Happy Halloween! This has been a hell of a lot of fun, and I’m gonna end it off with another western witch, with her jack o’ lantern.
