Finally Finished - Vader and his Two Masters

I started this a long time ago  See pencils here and here. Well I finally finished it.  I wanted to get it done for the Long Beach Comic Con and while I did.  It wasn't a piece that anybody saw much less commented on.  I am still glad I finished it.

I call it Vader and His Two Masters, Qui-Gonn and Emperor Palpitine.  All done with pen and ink on heavy bristol paper, measures about 6"x10"

Work in Progress - Darth Vader

A work in progress, Darth Vader with his "angels", Darth Sidieous and Qui-Gon Jinn.

Watto and Qui-Gon

 

This is a sketch I did the other day, I am trying to get better with the Copic markers I have.  I was getting really frustrated with the piece in the middle of laying down the colors, I was just adding color after color and I thought I was really getting away from the look of Watto.  But I stuck with it and I think Watto and Qui-Gon came out a lot better than I expected.  I love surprising myself.  What really got it going for me was laying down the inks afterward.  I started with the jacket and the inks really made it pop.
