Description
You can watch a sped-up YouTube video of me drawing this piece and giving my thoughts on Rogue Onehere: youtu.be/VOUlqzZwhDU
(I also color a drawing of Grand Moff Tarkin in it. It's a collaboration with Colin Richards and it's a grand ol' time.)
Admiral Raddus in the hangar on Yavin 4 when he learns that a band of Rebels disobeyed orders and went to Scarif. This is my interpretation of the (not shown) scene from from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
Raddus drawn with sumi-e ink, a dip pen, and brush. Background with Microns. All on bristol board.
I don't own Star Wars, but I do own this art. Be sure to credit me, Shell Presto, if you share or post this anywhere. (This being fanart, I'm happy to see it used places so long as it isn't used for financial gain (which would be illegal) and I'm properly credited for having drawn it.)

Wrong mon calamari.
This one is the "I say we fight!" one.

Very true when they're not colored.
If it was colored, you'd be able to tell, because Raddus is way more blue.
Otherwise, it totally just looks like Ackbar gained a few pounds.

Thank you so much for the compliment, and I'm glad to have him in the gallery.
Please do consider checking out my YouTube video where I draw him, too, if you're into watching art vids.
And thanks so much for commenting! Have an awesome day!

I can't tell if Admiral Raddus is exposed to look proud or grumpy here... care to explain?

It's also worth saying that he's hard to draw/convey emotion with because I didn't want to warp his features anymore than the actual mask would seem to go. I wanted to keep the animatronic/muppet-like feel of his face, even though technically I'm not constrained by physical materials in a drawing.

He's supposed to look proud, since he was the one on council who voted to take the fight to Scarif.
I imagine on the way back to the Profundity he walked through the hangar and was looking around, inspecting ships and talking to pilots. Then he heard the news, maybe not even directed at him but someone excitedly and worriedly telling someone else. Overhearing it, he smiles just a little. It's still war, so he's not thrilled, but he's proud of the decision that small band of rebels made, and he does want revenge for what happened to his planet and his people. It's a fight he wants.
