Impressive… most impressive — Darth Vader

|
Here's the fifth poster of the Star Wars Saga. Sorry it took a bit more to finish it, but last week was a bit rough.

Anyway, this illustration is one of the darkest I've done in tone and concept. I know there are more... iconic scenes from The Empire Strikes Back, but the image of Han Solo frozen in carbonite is burned in my head since I was a child. That's why I wanted to use it. I really liked how it looks in the end, since it was difficult to find the right colors to use and the right contrast.

On the other hand, I like how I'm mirroring Anakin's visual arc of the first three illustrations in Luke's visual arc of the last three. We can see here a weary, yet immature Luke. I'm looking forward to draw him as the full-fledged jedi he is Return of the Jedi!

If you don't know yet, you can purchase poster-size versions of this and the other illustrations I've done. Contact me if you want to buy them!
