Good job Pat!
As do I. It is our lot in life, Master. Shall we find something to kill to cheer us up?

LOL!  Thanks for the compliment, Steve, but I'm pretty sure I'm chasing your shadows!

That is Obi-Wan fighting A'Sharad Hett, and the other side is an image I found of old Quinlan Vos.  I just couldn't get the two sides to blend well enough to my liking, but I love the subject matter!

Well I'm certainly not getting my hopes up ;)

I'm pretty sure I know who's winning this one, and I'll give you a hint: NOT ME!  LOL!  This has been fun so far, and I do really wish more would enter.  You never know what you are capable of doing until you try!

Hey guys, long time no post...


It's been awhile since I've touched a custom, and I saw this contest and thought I'd give it a go... I've been messing with PS more and more, tinkering so I thought, why not?

Anyway, I thought of my idea from the AoTC poster w/ Anakin and Padme back to back, something about a Jedi not supposed to be in love. I remember seeing the huge banner at the movie theater of that, and always loved it.

Being the Anv. of Empire, I wanted to do a similar poster, but something to do w/ Empire. I kept tinkering with Luke and Vader pics, but for some reason, I just wasn't happy... Then someone said something in the other room, and my son said(kinda in a cocky manner too), "I know".. and I thought of the carbon freezing chamber scene...

All the pictures I could find online were all grainy and looked like they came from a VHS screenshot, so I figured, why not just take the pics of the figures, lol... anyway, without boring you too much, knowing I'm not that skilled with PS just yet, I found a ghetto way to light my pics(holding clear red plastic pieces in front of my light) and after taking about 200 pics, I went to work and this is what I came up with.

Hope you like, I had a fun time making it... took about 6 hours to do... DOH!



You can see the full size one here:

If that doesn't work(I had to save it as a PNG file, never done that before), let me know and I can email the original file.

EDIT: okay, THAT'S HUGE!!! Sorry... I might go back and put some orange in there, if I can without screwing it up, might not be able to seeing I'm going on vacation soon.. oh well, Han looks good in pink, lol.

Nice to see a couple of new entries, that should spice things up a bit.
When will the winner be drawn Jules?
