Well hello there,

 

I'm lucky enough to have been blessed with a lovely baby boy the last few weeks so haven't had much time to spend on this image. I really wanted to show everybody the characters though, so I've bunched em up and here they are! I've started a blog incase anybody's interested, http://craigearnshaw.net  Why not follow me! Its pretty bare at the moment but hopefully I'll fill it up over time! Anyway thanks for having a look.

 

Craig.

Congratulations to you and your (now larger!) family! :D

[MEB 8,742]

Eheh, Really cool. Glad to see you didn't give up on it :) Well worth the effort!

Keep at it :)

Congrat Craig on the new addition to the family! Where are our cigar or at least a drawing of one? Great picture man, I'm telling you you should be thinking how can I get these drawings produced as vinyl toys! I love your style!

Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid.

[denironaut 174]

Thank you everybody and for the congrats aswell!

@AdrianKLaegried, thank you for following the blog!

@Ronnie, cheers for the encouraging words! watch this space....

@giantlobsterprd, wise words indeed, although the police say i'm not allowed to carry my blaster anymore.. :(

[ronnyb 931]

Really great work, man! Keep it up!

[peter 671]

Well done on what you have produced. 

 

Oh yeah nice pic an' all. In a (Ford) Galaxy, far, far away...Pinned it! 

 

There is a craze in the US of putting stickers, in the rear windows of how many family members are in that brood wagon and family. You've got a great brand identity here. 

 

In space no one can hear you scream: but in the nursery, you can always wear earplugs :P

Very cool piece of work, nice design!  I'm not sure how I feel about the strange looking mouths on Luke, Leia and Han though.  It makes sense with Obi-wan's beard and Yoda is, well, Yoda, but I'm not so sure about those three.  Maybe it is the darker color?  I feel maybe a lighter band might also be more appropriate for Princess Leia.

 

I was reading a story with a prison break online and was amused to note that the rescuer was using all of Han's lines in the Death Star before rescuing Leia . . . So this is my second Star Wars encounter for the day.  :-)

My Mom wants to do this, adding in our three Welsh Pembroke Corgis to make sure everyone is included.  Fortunately she's never ACTUALLY done it. 

[GRScott 199]

I like it. Nice work.

[denironaut 174]

Cheers guys,

@penwiper, thank you for your opinion of this image. I agree the mouth is a little strange, to me it looks like a huge bottom lip that comes over the top, however with a beard it does create a more traditional looking mouth. I think I was just trying to create something unique looking( which seems to be really hard!!) 

 

@peter, I was unaware of this type of car sticker, certainly food for thought.

 

@GRScott, Cheers matey!

[denironaut 174]

Cheers ronnyb!!

[eejits 650]

This looks excellent. Love the style and like Ronnie says they would make lovely vinyl toys (or maybe even a poster). A very distinct style. Well done.

Well, now that you know there is a market for your talents: why not knock up a few samples and put them on your (friends or family's) vehicle and include a web link underneath? This hasn't reached/saturated Blighty yet and there are plenty of US military bases in the UK (pre made potential customers).

[denironaut 174]

Interesting indeed. I guess this might be something I should research in depth, the key is to know your market inside out, I might even dust off the 3d software to see how my designs translate into 3d. There is a vinyl graphic company just down the road from me, I might pay them a visit...

[peter 671]

At work, I have the details for a website (similar to Friday Free Ads, Loot etc), if you want I'll post the details next week, for the two big US airbases next week.

[denironaut 174]

Cheers peter! By all means..

[peter 671]

You may have missed it, but the people carrier in the picture above is a Ford Galaxy :D  :D  :D

[denironaut 174]

Thanks George, looking forward to seeing more eejits!
