Day 21 - Blast 🎢

This one is less polished than I’d like, but choosing to do a piece with 5 characters was always a gamble 😆. I interpreted this prompt as “having a blast” and that led me to theme parks.

So we have the Skywalker family (plus Obi-Wan xD) on a rollercoaster. Luke is having a great time, Leia…not so much 😆. Obi-Wan is peeved that he’s been left babysitting the twins while Anakin and Padmé treat the day out like a date 😆. Simple premise for this one, but it’s definitely fun!

Day 15 - Ragged

“She fell to her knees as the pain overwhelmed her, her breathing ragged. The Force flowed around her like a barrier.”

My main idea for this prompt was “ragged breathing” rather than clothing. I was torn between drawing Satine from Moulin Rouge or redrawing this concept art from Revenge of the Sith.

In the end, I went with the redraw to save time on reference hunting 😅. I’m so glad I did though, even though it’s not very polished, I do like how it turned out.

So this concept from ROTS has Padmé doubled over in pain seeking Yoda’s help. “she has more midi-chlorians than any person ever had because she’s pregnant with the Skywalker twins.” That’s the quote from the book this comes from anyway. I don’t have the book sadly, I’ve only seen snippets of it online, so I’m not sure if she’s in pain because she’s giving birth, or because the level of midi-chlorians is too high for her body to withstand. Whatever the reason, I do wish they’d explored it in the movie, it’s so interesting! At least to a big Padmé fan like me 😁.

Sorry Yoda is so lazily drawn, I put all of my effort into Padmé’s expression🥲.

Day 11 - Sting

I’m going to be so real with you…I don’t like this piece at all 😂. The more I look at it, the less happy I am, but I think that’s the joy of a challenge like this, you get some unexpected gems, but they can’t all be winners. I spent too long trying to think of an interesting concept so when I actually sat down to work on this I was really tired after work 🥲, so I didn’t even really want to work on it anymore.

So in the end, I chose to draw Padmé’s reaction to seeing Anakin’a scar for the first time, she’s really worried, but he’s just happy to be home. It’s not the worst piece of art ever, it’s fine, I’m just not feeling it :P

Day 6 - Pierce

Um…spoilers for Clone Wars?

I’m sorry for this one 🥲. I’ve been in a real ObiTine mood lately, and this prompt worked on multiple levels for them given what happens to Satine. I feel so bad for Obi-Wan, he just can’t catch a break with the people he loves 🥲…can we just say that he and Cody live happily ever after? Please?

Another more simplistic one, I will try to do some more colourful pieces later in the month, but I want to try and get ahead a bit 😆

Day 5 - Deer 🦌

This was one of the few prompts I had zero motivation for…but then it hit me 😆. Tell me Luke WASN’T thinking this when he first saw Din? (I mean…you can tell me and you wouldn’t be wrong…but I love this ship regardless xD)

Sorry for no colour on this one! I need to simplify some of these so that I have time/don’t get burnt out too quickly. I might come back after Inktober and finish some of these pieces anyway!

Tomorrow’s piece will also be Star Wars related…but you should probably prepare your tissues and brace yourselves 🥲.

[thegalacticsketchbook]

More attack of the screenshot doodles. I love Anakin and Obi-Wan’s dynamic in that movie, and I would love to see more of long-suffering Obi-Wan with Padawanakin 😆.

Day 2 - Weave 🕷️

“Obi-Wan wondered how Anakin had been able to weave such a web of lies over the years.”

I’m doing Inktober this year! I’ve completed it a couple of times in the past, but haven’t done it for a few years. Unfortunately, I can’t complete it traditionally, my wrist tends to mess up if I use fine liners too much (I’m still not sure why and am eternally heartbroken 🥲) so I’m doing it digitally instead. I know it kind of goes against the original intention of Inktober, but I just want to make the most of the prompts honestly.

With that out of the way, I haven’t shared day 1 because I just drew my OCs, I can share if anyone is interested, but since this is a Star Wars blog, I didn’t want to deviate too much from its purpose.

I had to turn this prompt into a Star Wars piece. I had an idea for a piece like this last year, but I didn’t have the time to flesh it out. While this isn’t as complete as I’d like, I’m still happy with it 😁.

Loved your modern AU Obi-Wan headcanons !

Do you have some to share about Anakin ?

Awh, I planned to post them some time soon but your ask sure moved that up, hehe 😜. I’m glad you liked my modern!AU Obi-Wan headcanons! Thanks for the ask, babe ❤️.

Here are my modern!AU Anakin headcanons (pt. 1):

Electropunk and comedy rock are Anakin’s favorite music genres. He dresses like an emo, but he doesn’t actually listen to emo music.

Anakin dresses in black, because you can’t really see stains on black clothes. He’s a messy eater AND likes to fiddle with cars/machines/other tech so his clothes always take the hit. It’s not a subculture choice, it’s practicality. Also, he can’t be arsed to think about which color matches what—with an all-black wardrobe he can just wear whatever.

Anakin doesn’t really get nail files. He uses nail clippers and thinks he’s done.

Anakin totally had a fidget spinner when he was a teen and could do all sorts of cool tricks with it. Now he likes to play with pens and pencils.

Anakin’s great at feeling emotions, not so great at naming them. If he ever went to therapy, he’d totally be given Plutchik’s Wheel of Emotions to properly describe what he’s going through, because “anger is a spectrum, Anakin.”

Anakin uses an all-in-one shower gel.

Anakin thinks moisturizing and hydrating are the same thing.

Anakin waxes his chest. It’s not that he’s hairy. No, the hair he does grow is just so patchy he’d rather not have it at all. Same with his beard.

Anakin’s really big on activism and societal issues. If there’s one thing he can’t bear it’s injustice.

More screenshot doodles from AOTC from the scene where Anakin and Padmé meet again for the first time in ten years. I maintain that Anakin being super awkward is very accurate to a guy his age talking to his crush 😆.

Some episode 2 Anidala 🥰. I’ve been working on this on and off for two months and it’s finally finished! I’ve not been a fan of my colouring lately, but I’m pretty happy with this! I think I managed to solve some of the things that were bothering me about my techniques. I love these two so much, and this scene of them just enjoying one another’s company and playing in a field on Naboo is still one of my favourites ♥️.

[thegalacticsketchbook]

I had art block a few months ago, so I was doodling screenshots from TPM and AOTC 😆. So here are some Qui-Gon and Anakin doodles.

[thegalacticsketchbook]

I love your mermaid art! I wonder if you've had ideas of Ahsoka as a mermaid. Would she be a clownfish since she's orange and white?

Thank you so much! 😁 I haven’t yet actually, but I love the idea of her being a clownfish! I definitely need to expand the mer-universe when I have time. Ahsoka, Cody and Rex would be so much fun to add!

[thegalacticsketchbook]

Some Padmé doodles I did while watching Phantom Menace a while ago ☺️.

[thegalacticsketchbook]

Padmé and her handmaidens from the “Queen’s Peril” book 🥰. I LOVE the handmaidens so much! It was awesome to finally get a book about Padmé and her amazing team!

Padme in watercolor!

Not necessarily Star Wars, but a doodle of Pedro Pascal I did for my friend when he was having a rough time 🥲.
