Senator Leia Organa
Frequent visitors to this blog will have noticed that I have Star Wars on the brain at the moment… Here’s a little doodle (3×4 inches) of Princess LEIA done while watching TV last night..
You’ve all no doubt heard of HAN SOLO, but what about his sister; TRUMPET SOLO? (That nugget of internet gold courtesy of CHRIS.)
Some fans of RED SQUADRON made a great, life-sized X-Wing rocket that actually takes off! Not to be outdone, GOLD SQUADRON fans staged their own Y-Wing rocket launch! (Thanks to MICHEAL MAY for these links.)
Behold this neato Darth Vader T-Shirt and also this collection of Star Wars Pixel art. (Sent to me by MR. BKON!)
UPDATE: Here is the FINAL INKED VERSION.
More STAR WARS characters HERE and HERE.

Oh man ,even with famous Mr. Baker’s amazing drawing force with hyper-charged-sex-bomb-drive mode on, Princess still doesn’t look as quater foxy as your other babes! Poor Leia… Love this drawing, though.

John>> Thanks for enabling my obsession!
GiantMonster>> Oh jeez! I hadn’t thought of that; a major Ewok conflagration after Death Star #2 was destroyed..
Benton>> Glad you like it I will tidy it up later.
Patrick>> Yeah it’s true; I had “sex-bomb mode” disabled when I drew this version. I was going for the tough/bad-ass teenager look but maybe I should give her a bit more hormone-appeal? I did a more “beautiful” version that I might post later… But to tell the truth, that baggy white costume wasn’t very flattering to Carrie Fisher in the first SW movie. She was very appealing to me as a feisty character but I didn’t notice how beautiful she was until Empire strikes Back.

Speaking of “sex-bomb mode”, weren’t you going to do a ring card girl for “Fist-a-Cuffs”?
Fist-a-cuffs needs a “fabulous Baker girl!”
Maybe you can still sneak one in!
