Hello again - after ages of inactivity - and wow! This site has changed so much since I've last seen it... it's amazing :D

Some of you know of me from this heavy topic: "Mando & Trooper fan art" and I want to apologize for "disappearing" without explanation; there have been some ups and downs on my side of things so the creativity was kind of lost...

The good news is that I'm back with productions and I just couldn't keep them to myself! Here they are - clone stuff, I know you guys like'em - so enjoy!


Republic Commando "portrait"

Sweet, Daenna! You make this clone-fan very happy! :D
Do we know that commando, or is he an anonymous one? Not that it would matter, I'm just curious. :)

Welcome back, Daenna! And with what two stunning artworks. Real nifty job on both of them, especially the GM - he looks even a bit Tom Hodges like, heh.

You're really good at shadows, the RC shows that... my only "complaint" (that word just doesn't fit at all) would be that there is no else plastic shading at all, but then again, that is just a different style, so no failure here.

Like I said, awesome job, there really is some Tom Hodges look. :D

The Republic Commando is very nice.  The shading is a perfect touch for a very nice dramatic effect.

Talk about coming back with a boom.  Nice job, Daenna!  I loved the Marine picture.  And the shading on both is fantastic.

(With the artists on this sight, I suddenly feel quite inferior)

Due to maintenance problems, the light at the end of the tunnel will not be in operation today. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

Thanks very much everybody! :D

It is good to be back indeed... There's so much I could have done to improve my skills but I'm glad it's still there, hehe! About that RC: it was originally a small doodle on my sketch book and I didn't really think of a character while doing it. Could be anybody, really... I also wanted to practice backlights, not knowing exactly how to place the shadow on him.

Here's a work in progress I'd like to show off, because I'm a huge fan of him, a sketch of Bardan Jusik (from Republic Commando: Triple Zero that I'm reading again) in full armor this time. By the way, don't look if this is spoilers for you :P

[SPOILER ALERT] > Bardan Jusik #2  sketch<

It is set sometime in future aboard a ship, hypothetically when all the Jedi have gone to hiding and Bardan had to make a choice in his life as a Jedi or Mando.... Here I thought it would be cool if making this "choice" was totally optional for Bard'ika :D Anyway I'll soon print this baby in larger size to work on some real line-art. And then add some colors!

You know, Daenna, some people just seem to "have" awesomeness, and you're one of them! Wow, on the Jusik drawing. Seriously, wow.

I can't wait for the finished product!

Thanks so much guys! I know it's a pretty ambitious work there... and I had printer issues so I decided to skip the whole inking part and just do it entirely in Photoshop.

Which gives this nice cartoony style!


Ok, sorry for splashing it all over the screen and I hope I didn't spoil it for any of you (I sure hope everybody here has read the RC novels! :D)

He's not sad, he's just contemplating. And that's rather rare for the "unemotional" Gladus Tite. ;)

Great job, Daenn'ika, I really like it, like I said. :D

Very nice job she did here, your styles go well together. But I'd like the see  the lineart as well. :P I think I preferred the helmet on Version 2, though...

How're you doing, cujo? You still wanna send me that Spiker in hi-res. :D

No problem, cujo! I had lots of fun with your ink art - since I didn't need to draw anything I could focus 100% on the colors...


Speaking of colors, today I learned how to do "digital painting" with a pen tablet and Photoshop. This took me all day but I kinda like the result:

Yes I'm really new at painting. So far all I did with Photoshop was using the mouse for strokes and it looks awful (and it hurts on larger pics) so I use paths instead. Here for the digital painting the only "artificial" thing is the background gradient and laser blade :) The rest is manual brushing, "inks" included.

Very cool, Daenna! It's very dramatic, with the sunset coloring the sky, and the clouds down below the cliff. And I must say I LOVE the wavering sun. Awesome effect!


Oh, and did Jusik just chuck someone off the cliff? Just curious! :)

Sweet, Wacom's the way to go. 
I've got some little Hanvon thing, but it's about the same methinks.  Good sensitivity and it can usually keep up with me.

I was pacing myself about that! But in the end I decided to let it hang for people to wonder...

Since I'm currently writing fiction about "Bounty Hunter Jusik" there is this unavoidable thing that I want to bring up:  the Jedi hunt! The spoon benders always get in the way of bounty hunters (or the other way around) and I want to picture that kind of confrontation. The main problem is that Bard'ika is a truly moral person, even as a merc, but I can't see him stepping away from a fight if it meant saving his own life.... Difficult to describe in a still picture, so that's definitely something to look into!

Guys, between the end of last year and last month I had some kind of "inspiration burst" that made me draw sooo much stuff, as if I was on liquid Schwarz the whole time!

So this is a bulk update, to show (off) the cool Mandalorian-related art I made! There's a lot of Bardan Jusik, so bear with me :P

(click on the thumbs to enlarge)


The last one is a commission for a devArt buddy and I'm currently working up a list of other Mandalorian characters people have requested, but I'm slooow.

And while passing time (aka. procrastinating) I figured I'd pop by in the old bobafett club and see how you're all doing.

Doesn't TFN have fanart galleries too? You could try there if they do. And I'm sure they do, I just don't think I've been there.

They do, but every time I try to browse the art there's an error in the code and the pages don't show. Then there's the Jedi Council forum and I'd have to literally resurrect a semblance of social life there... honestly I can't fit that in my time frame now that I'm back here.

+ I'm starting new website with Mando related stuff and working on doing something more out of it. Eventually I'd want to have an artwork/fan fiction archive with stuff from Boba Fett to Clones and also original characters around the Mandalorian thing.

Edit: here's what I'm currently working on, slapping some colors there but I quite like the black and white ink...

It's all done with a Wacom pen tablet, sketched and "inked" in Photoshop. The result is just like using traditional tools, just goes much faster and it's always clean.
