I recorded timelapses but they didn't take for some reason! Still a few pages of Moll and quite a lot of art.

This week featured a gawky granola gal who quickly became a roomie of another random sketched character. Neither design is completely finalized, but they're fun to draw. The in-room doodle didn't quite nail either one, but the basic vibe is kinda right.

I also thought about rebooting Star Wars with the Sith being the good guys, because the Jedi have always obviously been the villains. Passion, love, and fighting the machine are traits of heroes.

I've been sleeping a lot. I'm not a fan of being sick just before having a long trip, this month will end up being pretty lightweight. Brilliant for one of the first months of a new endeavor.

I did a little bit of Star Wars stuff while I was awake, and I think it's funny how many Star Wars races are "funny hat" races. Like the Twilek and the Togruta are both good example: they're essentially a lady with body paint and a funny hat.

But they're so fucking cute.

I spent some time thinking about Star Wars vs Star Trek and alien design while I was trying to either fall asleep or get up. Most Star Wars races are incredibly boring - reused generic costumes, for the most part. And most Star Trek races are "forehead aliens", which are like hat aliens but even weaker.

But what makes Twilek and Togruta and a few other, similar designs so striking? Is it the impact of framing the face, maybe... basically a really nice haircut with fun stripes and shit...

ANYWAY, I also did some work on Moll. I'll be rolling out your requests later, I hope, if you have more let me know.
