“What is Creative Mondays?
Monday’s are always a drag. The start of a new week, you have to go back to that routine of going to bed early/get up early. If (like me) you have to commute then you prepare for that long journey into work and that long journey back for the first time after a nice two day break.
So to kick off those lousy Mondays, I’m going to get my creative mind flowing in a positive way. Creative Mondays. A chance for me to show off something unfinished or finished that I’ve been working on throughout the previous week.”
This week’s Creative Mondays was a lot of fun. I’m a big Star Wars fan and despite what some might say about the upcoming films (directed by JJ Abrams) I’m really looking forward to it. A fresh start can only be a good thing for this franchise and Disney might just have the right stuff to put behind it to make it an awesome new trilogy!
Okay so enough geek film discussion. I noticed that upon hearing the news, creative folk descended upon the Internet to design and share their own fan posters for the upcoming film. Some are pretty damn awesome and so I got the bug and decided to create one of my own in Photoshop. It’s a mixture of stock photos and a Jedi shot from Episode 2: Attack of the Clones along with a more recent photo of Mark Hamill. I gave him a bit of a greying goatee to add to the aged look and I feel he has that appropriate “wise Jedi” look about him in this shot.
Was so much fun creating this image, I might do a few other character posters. I’m feeling an older Han Solo would be a good idea!
