In-progress design for fan poster art for the video game, "Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy."

In keeping with the franchise, it will be inspired by the Drew Struzan SW poster aesthetic, coupled with the Cartoon Network "Clone Wars" design motif I currently use.

Update #1: I've added Rosh, the Twins and assorted other elements to the composition. I might add a little more to the left side where the Twins are or scale up the speederbike and X-wing. Not too sure yet.

Update #2: Slowly but surely, I've been whittling away at this illustration. Presently, I've updated Rosh's head design and got it relatively accurate to his game model, integrated the Jedi Academy logo (making this a illustration/photo montage hybrid), and done a color and tone/highlight pass on Jaden.

You likey?

Update #3: These are few and far between, but the news of Drew Struzan's retirement recently pushed me to look into doing more works inspired by his style. Coupled with the premiere of the Clone Wars TV show tonight, inspiration brought me back to this work-in-perpetual-progress.

Added Kyle to the mix here. Still unsure on how I'm going to blend his warm color palette into the overall cool blues of the piece, but I'll come up with something, I imagine. Also dropped in Alora and Rosh (although I can't get a solid lead on their eye colors. May have to go through the game again for more references). I've also added some pics of an X-Wing and the Raven's Claw for placement/size purposes -- they'll be rendered at a later date.

I also hear that there's a Jaden Korr novel in the works which may nullify my Jaden-as-Twi'lek female/clone of Aayla theory. Drat :(

Update #4: Slowly but surely, it's getting there...

For the win! I liked Jedi Outcast better, though. :)

As always, your ability to capture emotion with the minimalistic lines of the Clone Wars style is supurb.

And I see your tendancy for Twi'leks hasn't diminished either ;)

Kewl! I really wanna see the finished product..stop by my gallery, i got some Star Wars stuffs too,tx!
This is shaping up so nicely! :clap: :clap: Each new element adds new depth and interest--and actually, IMHO, the ship and speeder look fine right now... This is going to be SOOO cool when done--they'll probably want to use it for the game, for cryin' out loud! :nod: Wonderful!

My view of Jaden was alwaysa Lethan Twi'lek (red). She would see Alora as a mirror of what might have been because of that, and that image would stick with her: a reminder of how close she came to falling to the Dark Side.

But WOW!

And if that "Jaden Korr Novelization" you mentioned turns her into another one of the signature "doe-eyed boys" that so irritate me in Star Wars, I'll pitch a fit and throw a whole bunch of Lethan Jaden pics up here in protest!
