Judas & Mercy FTW!

About 1200 years before the events in A New Hope..........

Cullen Stillwater(pictured), a Jedi Padawan who is sadly weak in the Force, crashes on a planet that has been cut off from the rest of the galaxy since before the formation of the Republic and the Jedi. He's captured, sold into slavery, and forced to fight arena battles. That's where he meets Graxxon Truk (also pictured) and the two form a plan to escape their bonds and depose the corrupt government that has enslaved the world.

Original sketch by Judas!
Stay tuned to the colour by Mercy!

haha cool, love the cartoon sort of pose

... O.O ...

Wow, I have work characters like these into my upcoming campaign, they're just too awesome. Is Graxxon a Gammorean?

Graxxon Truk (son of Graxxon Thul, son of Graxxon Ondo) is a Ruhdd, one of the indigenous races of the planet Oa. When I designed him I DID borrow heavily from both Gammoreans and the Gorax (remember him, kids?)

That said, I still haven't decided how or where to post the full story this pic comes from. So until then I'll just answer story questions here while Mercy makes it all beautiful.

lol, very D&D-esque. Can't wait to see where this goes.

Boshuda

Is that a made up species/planet?

Oh, yes. I needed something somewhat outside the usual Star Wars universe. That way I could do whatever I wanted. This was originally for a comic I was trying to put together, but I got lazy.
Anyway, the whole planetary system is inside a sort of nebula and had been forgotten by the rest of the galaxy. Yeah, I know that's NEVER been done before.....

Mmhmm... and can I assume you are a Green Lantern fan? :P

Hah! Y'know, I've always liked GL, but never read any of the comics.

OMG, this background took WAY too long!
Plus it's shamelessly plagurised from the Arena in Oblivion...

But I'm still kinda pleased with the end result.

PS: Judas, I need your signature for this!!

Excellent background

Kia kaha

Sweet-ness!
Awesome-ness!
er....Loch-ness?
I love it.

Heh! Glad you like, guys!

OMG, it's getting colored, I'm so excited I'm actually using the acronym "omg"...

Star Wars geeks are slowly advancing, Thespius! Isnt it awesome?!!

nice backdrop Mercy! And it really fits with Judas's pic

Ha ha! Cheers guys!!

Cool colab! How did this come about??

Can't remember now... Was it Triss who suggested it?

Can someone explain to me what FTW stands for? Its Everywhere.

"Life is to be lived, not prearranged," Luke Skywalker...

I remember saying something about Mercy colouring one of my pics.....but I can't recall what exactly prompted it.

FTW is For The Win! It stands for the last successful point in a game that pushes your team to victory. So if a picture was FTW that means that it was the last point before reaching total and complete utter victory and glee!

Nicely put, Drig!!

I try... :P

I thought that in SWAG terms FTW stood for "Five Ton Wookiee" or "Free The Wampa" or ..uh .. "Free Taquito Wednesdays".

Hee hee!! Could be, man!

Fantastic Telekinetic Whale?
Fur Trapping Wendigo?
Flinging Tektonic Walnuts?
Fiery Technological Wildebeast?

Dude, you spent WAY too much time thinking about these!!

Okay guys, I'm in a quandry here...
I can't decide which colour scheme to go with for Cullen's attire!
Suggestions??

I worry that the mauve colour scheme is leaning towards that sith obsession with red... At this point I think I like the last one most - but I just don't know!!

Wow! I like them all. I really couldn't decide.
I do like the yellow/gold highlights on the first one.

I sorta digging the second one.
