Tomorrow's drink & draw theme is 80's fantasy movies... what should I draw?

Throwback to 2022. The idea of an Ewok Jedi and Jawa Jedi came up during an episode of The Geek Buddies. So I ran with it.

This is a repost. I wasn't happy with the quality of the scan in the previous post. It didn't do the colors justice. This one looks much close to the actual piece.

Freshman Congressman; George "if that's his real name" Santos assumes his place on the House Small Business Committee and House Science, Space and Technology Committee.

A few more pixies added to my inventory. The lighter one was done sitting at the local mall food court, the darker one was done at home. Both are "overworked" and suffered paper pilling from too much water (it's multi-media paper not watercolor paper). I have more supplies at home so I think I did decent job fixing the darker one. I still like them both, but I see the overworking and the attempted fixes. Every piece teaches me something.

Hey, Wednesday is writer/artist Sam Kieth's birthday, so we're celebrating it with a drink and draw. Probably best known for his work on Sandman and his creator owned comic, The Maxx.

First event of 2023 down; Hawaii Pop Con. It was their first time doing this tabletop card game centric con in Hawaii. While attendance was lower than expected it does have a lot of promise, especially if you're a card gamer/trader. My friend, Jon J. Murakami and I shared a booth and we were doing free sketch cards for the keiki (kids). I did a total of 40 cards (missing pics on 2).

Way old throwback: Peter Jackson Kong. Painted in a now defunct FB app called Graffiti. The only brush options were size, opacity, and color. But I enjoyed the app because it recorded the process in Flash (SWF) format. Unfortunately this is the only one I recorded and the rest are lost to time.

My oldest YT replay from 2011. o.O

TBT Zombie Black Widow done Halloween 2022. A foray into a.i., but used to create the reference image and not the end product.

Annotated replay (about 4 mins).

This is the last annotated replay I made. They're more work, and even at 4 minutes they're too long to keep people's attention.

CW: depiction of a zombified person... and I guess eye contact (that's a new CW to me).

In the unlikely case that anyone here is on Oahu and will be going to Hawaii Pop Con this weekend. I"ll be doing free sketch cards for keiki...emphasis on SKETCH.
