Star Wars - Edge of the Empire - Suns of Fortune

Today on the blog I have for you some new Star Wars work! This time around I have a pair of book illustrations that appear in the recently released source book for the Edge of the Empire, Suns of Fortune. Suns of Fortune focuses on the Corellian system (where Han Solo is from) and the surrounding sectors of space, lets have a look...

Froz was a planet that was completely destroyed by an Imperial orbital bombardment and I was asked to depict a couple of mercenaries... or fortune hunters... or possibly relief workers scouring the still burning wreckage of the planet. The piece required some crazy bleed on two sides of the piece, which is why there is a lot of open destruction on the top and right side. Below, you can see how the piece was cropped down. For the Ronto I was asked to depict and Ronto rearing up and freaking out... done and done! Rontos are fun to draw. Here is how the pieces looked in the book (which is in stores now! and sorry for the crappy images)...

Cropped Froz destruction

It is SO enraged that it had to take on the entire page... RAWR!

Thanks goes out to Zoe Robinson for another exciting Star Wars project! There will be more Star Wars on the blog in the fullness of time... RAWR!

That is all for another exciting Wednesday, see you back here on Friday! Until then...
