Description ...Mozakin? No. Definitely not. And Anarath is little better. Let's just say 'Anakin played by Mozenrath'.

why:
Because when I tried drawing Anakin a while ago, my brother said he looked like Mozenrath. I was totally confused, until he explained they had the same hairstyle (he claimed I was drawing Mozenrath too much, but Anakin's hair was solely based on Episode III photos (so Anakin having curly hair parted on the right side had nothing to do with me). ...and actually, I'd always straightened Mozenrath's hair some).
And because the Disney-Club's doing a movie poster turned Disney contest right now. I'm thinking about modifying things some for the entry, though. Not sure yet if I'll keep it semi-realistic or switch to anime/Disney style. I'm also thinking of doing a Titanic poster. Though, last night an idea for Rise of the Guardians came to me (Sadira as the Sandman - or Sand Lady as she would prefer, Mozenrath as Pitch, Elsa as Jackie Frost, Cassim as North - because of an origin comic done by rufftoon that sounded like Cassim, Tink as Tooth, Genie as the man in the moon, and... 'Wasabi' as Bunnymund?)

idea:
As for the Star Wars idea, Destane would play Palpatine, and Khartoum and Jafar could play other bad guys. Jasmine immediately came to mind for Padmé (...because Padmé brought to mind Princess Leia and Princess Leia brought to mind Princess Jasmine). But Disney-club doesn't allow breaking up of couples, and it would've implied Mozenrath x Jasmine (...so I picked a really simple poster so Padmé wouldn't be in it). But, Jasmine's diplomatic and kind, and Padmé's even known to sneak around in disguise. I didn't see Aladdin as Obi-Wan (though I didn't really see anyone as Obi-Wan), but when I recalled a certain line, I couldn't resist: "You were my brother, Anakin." "Oooh, not that again. Cut!"
As for the next generation, Jasmine could also work as Princess Leia. Flynn Rider could play Han Solo (but this would again break up couples), and Aladdin seems like a pretty good match for Luke (and that doesn't help, as it would seem a little too incesty) - Aladdin and Luke are both short and both want a better life. Of course, Obi-Wan being played by Aladdin/Cassim has it's own issues: "Your father was a jedi who fought with me in the Clone Wars." "I always thought you were my father and you were just afraid of commitment." (Obi-Wan raises a finger and opens mouth to say something - then closes mouth when realizing what was said) "...Your uncle didn't tell you that." "No. But I always wondered why you looked so much like me." Maybe it would make more sense to have Aladdin as the one to play Anakin, but those two are nothing alike. Mozenrath's the one with curly hair, missing a right arm, is tall, and turned is evil.

image:
...I think the logo's what I did the best on. That turned out nice, even when I didn't smooth out the lines. The colors are a little off, but I didn't try too hard on matching them. (but the Episode III text was made with the Times New Roman font with a few font adjustments and not drawn by hand)
It was a lot of fun to draw it (at least until I got to filling in his head). I did a lot of low opacity coloring, and a lot of grayscale. I did the Vader cape first (after a rough sketch - and possibly after the simple gradient bg), and thought it was a lot of fun to draw white on black (or dark gray). I painted over the white with blue and pink afterward. It went the same way with the leather and the shirt (which I left without the design because I saw little point in adding the design). His face took awhile. (does it look like him and also not weird?) I referenced the original poster and one screenshot I had previously taken of Mozenrath (though, I also glanced in the mirror when trying to figure out little eyebrow detail). (oh, I also looked up images of Darth Vader when messing with the cape, but the cape looks quite a bit different from Vader so it didn't help a lot) ...I gave him sith eyes despite the original having normal eyes (that had two image refs). He's holding a sith weapon, why not have sith eyes as well?

This is literally Ben Solo. So ironic!

The funny thing now is when the new evil of the new Star Wars took off his mask, I was like : Holy Shit, Mozenrath, what are you doing here?

Mozenrath was propably sad he was out of a job so Dinsey gave him a new one! XD

Way cool, I was thinking Jafar could be Count Duku.

actually, I was pondering over making Jafar Darth Maul, since Jafar's red in genie form. And making Khartoum Count Dooku, partly because of how Khartoum and Mozenrath fought each other (and maybe because Khartoum might have a smart, high-class guy sound to his voice? I don't know). And of course, Destane is the fatherly Palpatine, who's behind everything (after all, Mozenrath said Destane was like a father to him, and he was so bad that Iago said even Jafar had stayed clear of him).

...the hard part, though, is what to do about Jasmine and Cassim. Because there's some strange things going on with Jasmine playing Padme and Leia, and Cassim playing Obi-Wan (and Aladdin Luke). ...I had reasons for thinking of those pairings... Not impossible, just, multiple plot possibilities. Like an idea of there only being five years between the third and fourth episodes, where Vader's just a little older than Luke, and Obi-Wan's just denying his fathership when he talks about Vader and Luke's father ("Luke, Obi-Wan was your father." "Ben, why did you lie to me?!"). But that possibility would make Padme and Leia not mother and daughter despite the huge similarity.

Thanks for the comments, by the way. ^_^ I liked seeing them. Hopefully I'll reply to some others later.

Hi.  I hope you’ll accept the request I just sent to add your great art to the Anakin-Christensen  group Featured Gallery. May The Force Be With You!

sure it counts if it's supposed to be someone else playing him?

Yes, the group accepts all kinds of versions of adult Anakin. We have folders for cross-overs, alternative-universe, and "crack" Anakin!

don't know much about memes. Is there an Aladdin/Star Wars meme? ^_^" Or a random character turning sith meme? I guess I've seen some Disney/Star Wars stuff from Disney buying Star Wars, though.

Ooh.
hmm... (tries to think of how that would fit) Can't really see Mozenrath saying that to Aladdin :P (if Aladdin's Luke), or really anyone. O_o I wonder what an older Mozenrath would look like... But, I might've turned it around a bit in the description when I played with the idea of Cassim playing old Obi-Wan. Aladdin!Luke: "But I always thought you were my father." Cassim!Obi-Wan: "Wait, wut?"

hm... with Mozenrath as him, I guess he'd be lord Vader of the Black Sand. That gives me title ideas.

thanks. ^_^ As I decided it was done, I just suddenly started thinking, ...Wait, I basically just stuck someone else's head on Anakin's body. Plus, I've never been able to get colored realism/semi-realism right, so I wasn't sure if it'd have an Uncanny Valley look.
