For Farewell to Supergirl Week, Day 4 - Alternate Universe, figured I’d bring back my incredibly self-indulgent Star Wars AU. Most of these have already been posted, but I found a few drawings/sketches that have been sitting in my ‘in-progress’ folder for literal years. XD

Some more drawings under the cut!

Ooooooh, lemme guess! Jedi in hiding, used his natural shape-shifting powers to take the role of an Imperial officer that almost caught him and now works from within to aid Rebels?

Hello!

Well first and foremost, thank you, very glad you like it! As for the thought process, admittedly, a big part of for-fun stuff like this is often: ‘this looks cool, I wanna draw it.’ 

And while that is...absolutely a big part of these sketches, there IS some story thought happening. XD It started with this post right here (shout-out to @insectoid5) and I sort of arbitrarily went with a Rogue One look for Alex because the film had just come out a few months prior and I had the artbook on hand. 

So all of the sketches ended up kind of...situated in that time frame, and the ideas for what characters were doing/’plot stuff’ was largely informed by that film in particular. (Not necessarily a beat-for-beat match up, but. Broad strokes.) For example: Protagonist discovering that their family member(s) played a part in creating a big ol’ weapon.That sort of thing. (I’ll point folks to these two sketches here.)

Also suggestions from folks sometimes inform the sketches--though I’ll occasionally tweak them. I wanna say someone suggested the flight suit for Kara? Which I drew but I also have a blue version somewhere in my documents folder, because, as my icon might suggest, I like the blue flight suit. XD
