Post by: jedi_randy on April 03, 2011, 10:05:02 AM: It has been my dream to own and wear a Stormtrooper costume, but alas, I cannot afford it yet due to to more pressing financial priorities. But that won't stop me from becoming a member of the 501st, even if it's only my "fantasy"...

Post by: jedi_randy on April 03, 2011, 05:24:09 PM: Here's another one that I made on the eve of our National football team's match vs Mongolia:

(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-rjpz1FWZ_-4/TX6kF8ypU7I/AAAAAAAAAQg/nH4DQMD21Fg/s640/azkals+vs+Imperial_walkers+copy.jpg)

The Philippine football team is popularly known as the "Azkals" or street dogs, and have gained quite a following after a string of impressive performances. The Philippines is not exactly a hotbed of football in Asia (with basketball being the most popular sport in the country) and have languished in a football stupor for many many years until late last year, when the Azkals drew 1-1 with powerhouse Singapore and then upset defending champions Vietnam 2-0 in their own turf during the AFF Suzuki Cup.

You can read the full article "Hoth Dogs! Philippine Azkals battle Blue Wolves in Icy Mongolia" here: http://talesfromthemoseisleycarinderia.blogspot.com/2011/03/hoth-dogs-philippine-azkals-battle-blue.html (http://talesfromthemoseisleycarinderia.blogspot.com/2011/03/hoth-dogs-philippine-azkals-battle-blue.html)

Post by: jedi_randy on April 14, 2011, 12:21:20 AM: Thanks guys!

After Threepio, who was a incessant chatterbox and Vader who had classic movie lines, honestly I hit a bit of a snag with Boba since we all know that he's a man of few words. So I thought maybe I could do something different by incorporating Mandalorian glyphs and symbols instead.

Now Artoo was more complicated since he only beeps, woots and whistles. Then a lightbulb moment struck me: Instead of "beep", why not make Artoo current and make him TWEET?

And voila, glad you all liked the concept!

Yeah, I've been thinking about the Mos Eisley Cantina scene for quite some time now. I'll probably work on it this week after I finish something for Easter. Cheers!

Post by: Luke Sprywalker on April 22, 2011, 06:53:43 PM: If I may suggest something for you to ponder...I would LOVE to see you "digitaly dabble" Luke looking into the sunset of twin suns as he ponders his life. That is one of my favorite moments and the music is just perfect. An iconic moment for me.

I love how the Tunisian sunset is red and the wind poofs his hair... awesome! "Luke! Luuuu-uuuke! Stare too long at those two suns you'll go twice as blind! Luuuu-uuk?

Post by: jedi_randy on April 28, 2011, 06:07:38 AM: Thanks HB94 and Art!

She usually projects a wholesome, goody-two-shoes image, but she is one of the most influential female actresses here in the Philippines. I wanted to bring out her inner "Dark side" :)
