Han&Leia art!

[leelastarsky]

This was commissioned by may_child



An older Han&Leia based on Harrison and Carrie as they look now. :~) (with a little artistic licence taken to smooth out some of Harrison's lesser wrinkles. ;~) )



Photoshop all the way. ;~)





On a completely different note, I just wanted to add that it's 40 freaking degrees again and it's completely and utterly UNCIVILISED!!

Nice :) I always enjoy seeing Star Wars pics, especially tender scenes like this;

Still, on another note, now all we need is a family scene... preferably the one where Jacen informs them that they're grandparents... :D

I don't know what Leela's view on the EU is, but I don't personally consider it to be a genuine continuation of SW. So as far as I'm concerned, there is no Jacen.

I definitely see Han and Leia having a few kids -- and I see them naming a son Bail, not Anakin. That never sat well with me; Bail raised Leia and was her father in every way that mattered. And I never liked the idea of them having twins, nor that all of their kids turning out to be SuperJedi. I would like to see at least one of their kids not be Force-sensitive.

You know, that never set right with me either, naming their son Anakin, didn't make sense, especially since Leia still had a hard time with him being her father, and she truly loved Bail, he was her father. I just didn't get it. The twin thing i thought was okay, just cuz luke and leia had been twins, and that can happen in families also but I wish it could be done over and differently.

Exactly. Why name a son after the biological father she never knew and who did all kinds of horrible things to her? Sure, she could forgive him (though I don't think the books ever expounded on that -- in fact, aside from a truly idiotic scene in "Truce at Bakura" where Anakin's ghost visited Leia, the books didn't deal with the issue at all), but even so, I think she'd remember the man who loved and raised her and want to honor him.

Yeah, well, as it is your painting, it is up to you to say yea or nay, but personally, I'm very fond of the EU; now, some of the books I hate, like Jedi Trial, which to my mind is the worst excuse for a SW novel on the planet, but I like the characters. Yeah, well, to each to his (or her) own.

Amen to that! :)

Amen to that! :)

*high five* :-D

Well, personally I regard the EU as a bunch of boring fanfics. Nevertheless, I'll paint whatever anybody is willing to pay me for! ;~)

I'm glad you enjoyed it. It was nice to paint them 'older'. :~)
