Xim's War Droid
My design for Xim's War Droids, mixing elements of Vader and Stormtroopers and ancient greek and roman helmets.
I always liked the idea of the Ancient War Droids guarding Xim's treasure in Han Solo and The Lost Legacy, but was disappointed with the official design.

Oh man! WOW!!! :D
No, seriously, this is one awesome piece of artwork. I don't really know what to say about the technical aspects of this piece, but I really get a "the long lost guardian of an ancient treasure"-vibe from this picture. Add a bit TRANSFORMERS, and presto! Sheer awesomeness.
You don't happen to have a full body shot, do you?
Though no one ever seems to remember that the skull has twin sunbursts in its empty eye sockets, I have to say, that your take on Xim's death's head symbol is also a lot cooler than the official design.
Brian Daley would be proud.

I must say, I think this is amongst some of the greatest art ever submitted to SWAG. VERY nicely done. Very nice indeed.

Amazing design and I love the blur effect and whatever you did to screw with the colors a bit looks really cool to.

Excellent job here. I definitely see and love the Greek influences on the helmet.
