That’s no moon, it’s a giant green tennis ball. And I actually wrote “HOLYSHI- – -“? Well, I must have been growing up when I did this page, and feeling a bit more confident at home around my mum and dad! I still remember describing[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

My Arm – My Arm! How the heck did I come to draw Solos body so badly? Especially considering that I seem to have been getting quite good at drawing at this stage, at around 13 or 14 years old. And I[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Who needs speeches? Not SWa9 it seems. Han Solo loses all of his great lines in this page. “Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no substitute for a good blaster by your side kid” and “I’ve seen a lot of straaange things…” etc.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Art Notes That’s bloody thick line-work! It seems that someone got a new black marker. This looks like it was done in 1982 or so, when I was around 13 or 14. The action and drawing is definitely more advanced. Though for your purposes,[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

073: “What a piece of junk!”
Agk! I hate these ones. I’m guessing it’s late 1981 early ’82 Chin-Dimple-Handsome ‘WE ARE BEING WHACHED” I particularly hate this drawing of Luke. Once again, it’s my impression – at the time – of what constituted handsomeness.Chin Dimple, hair[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
