Description
Atton Rand and my version of the Jedi Exile (Alexandra Nord) having a stroll.If I were an artist of any calibre I would have:
1) Fixed Atton's wonky legs
2) Drawn their proportions so that they looked vaguely human
3) Added a background.
Since I'm not, imagine they're toddling along on Dantooine, before they discover the Disciple. Alex is just showing her new friend the sights (or lack thereof) and is blissfully unaware of any budding romance. That all goes down later, y'all.
(Be aware I will be drawing more of these two. Namely, something to accompany this wonderful story that was written for me a while ago by my buddy - [link] )

You're way too hard on yourself, man, this is really well done c:

I've taken perfectionism to an extreme. I was a bloody nightmare when I was finishing my dissertation. X) But I'm very glad you like it, especially considering you're pretty damn good at the whole full-body thing.

LOL, I love the noted points you gave though I feel you are way above my own level! When I don't add background (which is more often than not), I comfort myself with knowing that it is up to the viewer's imagination!
So happy to see a KOTOR piece. It makes me realize I need to get on that myself.

Thank you very much indeed! And that's a really good way to look at the no-background thing; I'll have to remember that.
The original KotOR games are fantastic! So much so, I'm one of those sad people that refuses to touch SW:TOR since I was denied a third installment!

I know, at the end of the second installment I was like...wait...what happened to the next planet that it seemed like I should be hopping over to?
I loved KOTOR, in fact, it was my first Bioware game since back then I was becoming disenchanted with Everquest and right at the cusp of trying out WoW. I liked having an awesome RP game that I didn't have to deal with ganking or online craziness. I had always hoped they come out with a third installment and wept when I saw they went MMORPG with it. Couldn't they have done the third installment AND the MMORPG?? *sigh*

I wanted to go on more adventures as Revan, dammit! And Atton and the Exile needed to get it ON. That was worth a third installment in itself!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I AGREE! I was so geeked to see Carth in the second installment and then went from happy to completely sad when I realized that Revan had LEFT him. I was dumbfounded. I don't care if E. Palpatine was rolling up with a Sith fleet, that girl better stay at Carth's side since they made one heckuva team. I mean seriously, how do you leave that hawtness?? And for what? Empty dead space that was never explained and only alluded to which had there been a third one how awesome would it to have been to join both your OCs for pitched battles? Gawd please don't let DA3 do this too.
As for Atton, I kept holding out hope for more romanctic interludes...and nothing. TBH, Bioware only needs to create a couple of cutscenes for me to be blissfully happy. As long as they have Carth and Atton being their awesome selves with their ladies during some quiet down time I'd be thrilled. In fact, I should jump on the bandwagon of petitioning Bioware and have all the signors who are interested in this promise to buy that DLC should they make it.
I don't know how you feel about the Star Wars, but I put this link up on a journal the other day of a video that captures my feeling on Star Wars Episodes 1-3: [link] if you are interested in checking it out. Though, if you liked those episodes then this is not the video you are looking for...err...wish to see. I feel like Bioware kind of thought to do three and then decided to jump on the money bandwagon with the MMORPGs rather than finishing off the trilogy for the fans already there for them which made me sad.
At the very least, there needs to be more KOTOR art and I am making it my mission to support that!

I'm a big fan of Star Wars in general; when I was little, my brother and I had a dolls house filled with Star Wars figures (the idea was that the doll's house was the Rebel Base!
Not a big fan of the new ones though, so I'll definately have a look at your video; thanks very much for the link!!!

Awww, that sounds awesome! I have two younger brothers and a younger sister and I can't tell you how many times G.I. Joe had Barbie as their backup evac team or She-ra avenged the Thundercats after Mum-ra tried to defeat Lionel. Smurfs and My Little Ponies were constantly being ransomed by Skeletor and the Millenium Falcon was a getaway vehicle. XD Man your comment brought back some awesome memories-thanks for that!
I have a feeling you are going to love that link.

Heehee, I just love how you drew Atton! And what a cute exile

Thank you very much! That's definately the most handsome Atton I've drawn.

Thank you! I'm assuming 'Meetra' is the canon Exile's name? I'm a bit out of the loop since I haven't played SW:ToR. I'm one of the those sad people that wanted KotOR 3 instead!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yes, her name is now Meetra Surik and she has brown (?) hair if I remember right ^_^
She is one of the protagonists also in the The Old Republic book titled Revan. I myself also dislike the new antagonist the Sith Emperor, but the game itself is cool. I would have liked KotOR 3 if the protagonist would have been Revan again xDD
But very beautiful picture 833

Cool! Thanks very much for the info!
I was going to pick up the "Revan" book, but brought a Star Wars cookery book instead!

Thank you very much! Is Meetra the Exile's new canon name? I haven't played SW:TOR, you see!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, Exile is canon called Meetra Surik but I think that it is everyone's right to call her anyname you want ^^
Well it was first mentioned in Revan book but she is on SW:TOR as well.
And as I said, love this! She looks so pretty

Oh, but I like the legs and the proportions and the not-a-background! I do!
As always, his expression is love, and she has extraordinary fashion sense (those boots!).
And I would so love more of these two, for sure. I will be keeping all of them.

You're such a lovely person, J! 
I'm planning on doing a piece to actually go with that fic since I love it so much!

EEEEEEEE I love this! Always lovely to see KotOR art from you!
Firstly, Atton is looking FINE.
Secondly, I adore Alex. So much. She's adorable, unfairly pretty and such a goshdarn snappy dresser! Her wardrobe is fab!
Thirdly, I think this looks perfectly awesome, despite Atton's apparent leg wonkiness. I can't see any wonkiness, thus I refuse to believe that there is wonkiness. So there!
Since you're on a KotOR high I can't wait to see more fanart from you!
Oh, and

I LOVE YOU AND YOUR COMMENTS, DAHLINK.
Seriously, I think that's the sexiest Atton I've ever drawn. Ever. I scribble and created perfection.
I've actually started re-playing the game, so expect MOAR.

THANKS, MY SWEET, SWEET INVERSE.

It's wonderful work as always.
I love your exile's clothing, nice, casual stuff. 8D Her body shape is lovely as well, I am happy that you add a little bit of meat to her bones instead of making her look like a stick.
I see what you mean when you say Atton's legs are wonky, but even then they look reasonable. 8D
Don't bother yourself about the anatomy, it looks absolutely fine to me.

Aww, thanks, Sha! I'm glad you like Alex's get up; back in the good ol' days when I just to whack all my stuff up on the KotOR Fan Media forums, I had a bit of a reputation for having Jedi's with the snazziest clothing.
As to Atton's legs, I was far too lazy to fix them.

dinky chubsters are way more adorable than normal people. and have a better sense of style as well it seems
I know that feeling, that feeling you get when you finish a piece and you tell all the mistakes to bugger off. XD
