The STAR WARS Characters Redesign Thread

[DorkyFresh]

My bad Duker Jay...sometimes it's hard to keep track of the people who praise my work and who doesn't...plus, like you guys said...sarcasm is hard to read in words unless there's a smiley or somethin.

Glad you guys like the redesign...I'm working on a Yoda and upper body shot of Obi Wan and Anakin with new costumes.

 

[Duker Jay]

Sweet...I look forward to seeing you do Yoda...

And, seriously...when are we gonna see the finished "Sauron's Demise"...I'm dying to see the finsihed piece.

Give me another year or two...haha...

...seriously, maybe a couple of months.

I've been having this idea for Yoda's clothing (and the clothing of the Jedi Council in general) to mimick that of Hindu and Bhuddist Monks for a while. I'd be interested to see if somebody could render that on paper.

I redrew yoda because i wasnt happy with the previous one, i will redo the emperor too....heres my anakin and obi-wan(obi wans uniform is brown the scanner made it look black) vader, windu, and padme coming soon then i will work on OT redesigns

 

[DorkyFresh]

Not a drastic change, but I gave him a lil' more characteristics...

 

[The Last Meatbag]

you my friend, are TEH AWESOME

 

[Jack Rabbit]

Cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuute.


I like 'im, Dorky.

I love it, he looks almost like an old preist.

Good....I wanted him to look harmless and peaceful. If a Sith were to come up to him and challenge him, they would underestimate Yoda's abilities based on his looks.

I also gave him darker eyes simply because I like the black eyed look on steretypical aliens (big heads, gray skin, skinny frame, big black eyes) and I wanted to give Yoda the same type of feel snice he IS an alien. My Yoda also has an old wound from a lightsaber battle with the sith before they became nearly extinct.

If I ever get good enough...I'm going to make him in 3d and animate him to fight like Li Mu Bai (Chow Yun Fat's character) from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. He'll be precise and skillful...unlike in Attack of the Clones where he jumps around like a rubber ball. My Yoda will often take out an opposer in less than 3 moves.

 

[Sandman138]

I dunno, I always thought Yoda was far more impressive when he just used the force to fight. A little man with such control over his environment is very powerful from a visual perspective.

 

[Sandman138]

I also like that your Yoda gives off the feeling that he is genuinly good at heart. He's like a little Bhudda.

 

[The Squirrel]

anyone got any boba fetts?

That's the thing...my Yoda will never use his lightsaber in a REAL fight, but he WILL use it to teach his pupils and students. My Yoda is so in tuned with the force that even if someone as talented with the lightsaber as Darth Maul or Anakin were to confront him...he could simply hold out his hand and stop them from even moving or getting close enough to slash at him.

 

[Hades]

you're yoda kind of looks like a gremlin

 

[DorkyFresh]

lol...well, maybe it's because Yoda looks like a Mogwai anyway...

 

[pickleweed]

very impressive dorky. don't like the vader mask or the yoda (he looks high) but you've got skills.

 

[n8dogg]

my vader isnt finished, I still have to add arms and the back of his cape

 

[dansker]

what about a young yoda? or bad versions of jedis. or sum droid designs?

lol...bad versions of Jedis........aren't they called Siths? hehe

I got a couple of more concepts comin' up. I still have to do a real quick coloring job for Anakin and Obi Wan and then I'm gonna work on a quick sketch of a redesigned Boba Fett.

 

[RAMORE]

tight man we love you dorky! What about a new xwing or melinneum falcon in all your spare time

 

[dansker]

lol...bad versions of Jedis........aren't they called Siths? hehe

.

yeah yeah yeah. what I meant was; what about taking a jedi and turning him to the dark side. Similar to the apparent change in appearance the anakin goes thhrough in the 3rd movie.

 

[n8dogg]

hey if someone can critique my stuff it would be much appreciated, i'd like to know what to fix.

 

[DorkyFresh]

n8dogg....your stuff is pretty good. i kinda like your revised Palpatine...but I'm not sure if that's supposed to be his hair or some kinda tattoo or what. The costumes for the Jedi are pretty good. They feel like Jedi even though they're not wearing typical Jedi robes. I like the shoulder pads and chest of Darth Vader...but I'm not too keen on the mask, torso, or belt. Actually...I'm not exactly sure how everything is placed on those parts.

Good work though.

 

[n8dogg]

I dont have robes on the jedi yet and I'm gonna redo the vader. those are sith tattos on palpatine! Thanx for critiques!
