Description
Hey guys!I thought I'd post each new sketch card on here every monday, following their debut on my blog, [link] from now on.
The new theme is characters from the expanded universe, and since The Force Unleashed II debuts tomorrow, who better to start us off than Starkiller himself! I never get tired of drawing this guy!

So you never get tired of drawing this guy, huh?
He'd be the first thing I'd commission.
So many of the games' many parts are going through my mind right now...
I really wanna play the second. Then maybe I'll have a better idea about what I wanna commission, when I get a Paypal someday.

haha Well, I did after yesterday. I beat the second one and the ending left me kind of angry. The game is really short, and I was just really annoyed with the story. I won't spoil it for you, but let's just say Lucasarts overstepped their boundaries on how powerful this character should be compared to some other characters.
Anyway, cool! I'm always down for commissions, so you just let me know if that happens. Thanks for your support as always!!

When I get a Paypal, you'll be the first to know. 
My life will never be the same after that.

haha For sure! Once I got my Paypal account, it was hard keeping my itchy left-click finger away from ebay...self-control! Self-control!

Kinda like a debit card or a credit card, then? Dang. I'm in for some trouble.
Haha. The kind that involves great artistic works.

Try? Do or do not. There is no try. Come naturally, your skills do.

His mouth and chin in the game do look pretty ridiculous, lol. But this only makes him look sillier! XD
If it's one thing I hope I see when The Force Unleashed II comes out, I want to have more missions where you play as Darth Vader himself, that one with Kashyykk was just not enough!
Plus I don't get how Darth Vader, the bad guy of all bad guys, could get pummeled around by Starkiller in those trailers and at the end of the first game, wouldn't he put up more of a fight?
Great picture though.

Thanks! Yeah, they're so distracting that I really couldn't walk away from this one without exaggerating the features...
Don't think we'll get any Vader missions. And from what I hear, they kind of punk down on Vader in this one, so I'm a little worried! But in any event, I'm sure it'll be a fun as hell game!!

Yeah, they really did seem to take him down by a LOT of notches in this game from what I saw in the trailers, but it doesn't seem right on the developer's part... Mostly because of this: If Starkiller is just that powerful and wants revenge towards Vader so bad, how come he doesn't end up killing him in a fight and thus Luke is the one who ends up defeating Vader instead? I mean, Starkiller to me isn't exactly a real Jedi, to me he's still a Sith, he's just a Sith that doesn't care about making empires and he just wants the Empire to leave him and Juno alone (case and point, even with the "evil ending" of the first game where he does kill Vader, he tries to kill the Emperor too just so that there are no more problems to face when he goes back to Juno, but then Juno dies and he has no ambitions to really live for at that point). If he were a Jedi, he wouldn't use all that fury and anger within his combat and when he draws strength from the force, and he wouldn't need somebody to tell him to not kill (Kota telling Starkiller to not kill the Emperor) he would just do it on his own like Luke did, so I don't think that he would be a real good guy and resist killing Vader just because he is angry at him, something tells me that somewhere along the line, he's a gonna die again...
I played the demo though and it is REALLY fun! For once it did feel like Starkiller was a force of nature and the pacing of that one level on Kamino alone was just amazing! One moment you were killing stormtroopers as usual (which that was the one thing that I did not like about the first game: too few weak baddies to make you feel awesome, and too many baddies that you actually had to work hard to get rid of and were actually resistant to force powers, so it felt like you had all this power that was just cancelled out...) and the next you're running for you're life to get away from a gunship that's shooting at you through the windows! But then Starkiller ends up stealing Darth Vader's special TIE fighter, so now I have to figure out how Darth Vader gets it back for the events of A New Hope...

Yeah, I'm so distracted by the size of his chin and mouth everything I see a cinematic from that game. I couldn't help but accentuate it! haha Thanks!!
