So, my friend Tisbore had this wicked-awesome idea to draw oneself as one would like to be in the Star Wars universe.



Ma-a-a-a-a-a-an, I spent so much time as a little JoJo pretending to be an X-Wing dogfighter pilot! How about you? Who would you want to be, or who do you think you would be, if you were a character in Star Wars? Jedi? Sith? Droid? Stormtrooper? Bounty hunter? Smuggler?...Moisture vaporator repairman? Bantha groomer? That green thing hanging out in the garbage smashers on the detention level of the Death Star? Guys, the possibilities are totally endless.

And would you have a different name? Let us discuss these things!

Han solo is mah hero. I was given a plastic blaster at age 5 (with two realistic laser sound effects!) and have been shooting at stormtroopers around corners ever since.

I never pictured myself as much of a smuggler though. I would be a rebel spy! Always one step ahead of the empire and just waiting for someone in high command to slip up and give out just a tiny bit of information that would give the rebels the edge in battle and turn the tide of the galactic civil war!

I would have to have one of those speeders from Return Of The Jedi. Those left one heck of an impression on me.

Dude, it is so easy to picture you in one of those uniforms. Pew pew pew pew!

Me? Probably Jedi, but the young sort who would have burned out after about a year of fighting halfway through the Clone Wars, then dropped off the radar, not well known or powerful enough to get caught in the purge.

Sorta like Obi-Wan, only younger at the time and more inclined to skulk around an urban centre than a desert planet. And fall in with criminal types, without quite dropping off the Dark precipice.

The Jedi may not crave excitement or adventure, but live in the underbelly around people who work for Hutts long enough and eventually you'll get plenty of both, whether you want them or not.

I would be a force-sensitive who unknowingly bends luck for better hands in games of pazaak.
