Description
So yeah, Darth Vader. This is the only time I've drawn him since I was a kid, and what a challenge. It was awesome. Getting all of the details right, and the niches on the helmet was a blast. Same for the troopers. If you're off on your representation, man it shows. I really wanted him to be basically a mass of black, but if you look, you may see where I tried to make it appear that he's walking forward. If I had a main point of reference it's an old poster I had as a kid with a red background. But as you can imagine I had to reference a LOT of photos and angles to get it right. I kinda combined a Death Star BG with Cloud City smoke, just to give some depth and variation in the background.

Available for purchase at NC Comicon.

Greyscale Copic markers (plus the colored lighty bits on his chest box) on 9x12 cream drawing paper.
