Description
"Learn about art, Captain. When you understand a species' art, you understand that species."I know I don't often draw the guys, so here's something for the ladies, who voted Star Wars' Grand Admiral as their favorite! So here he is, along with his Force-negating pet Yslarmir.
Since he's a genius tactician and strategist, it was best to try to portray that kind of cool, ruthless intelligence, though the temptation to draw something more comical was still there. Well, maybe if this first attempt does well enough!

Judging from the sudden popularity of the piece, you're not alone in thinking so!

That's because there is a sad lack of good Thrawn fanart.
Do you have plans to color this?

Hey Masterplanner when are you going to do new Thrawn drawings?
I'd love to draw Thrawn "Game of Thrones" style, with the fur and the cape! he would look badass

My plans for drawing have kind of been hindered by 1) my commissions queue and 2) the fact that my netbook and scanner died, and I currently haven't the money to replace them.
So I've just been kind of concentrating on my textile art and running my Thrawn appreciation blog, the-grandest-admiral.tumblr.com
Besides, I know there is a sad lack of good Thrawn art but you are far superior to me when it comes to drawing

But I like your Thrawn drawings
Yeah but almost half of the Thrawn fanarts on deviantart are by me already (maybe not now, but there was a time...)

Yes, but the blue and red makes Thrawn that much better.
