A real work of art! I bow in shame at what i am about to show...

To the the rest of you crazy bunch, tell me what you think: Shoud i continue doing this series or stop right there and stop degrading the greatness that is SW? (does it shows that I lack a little confidence in my self?)

Here it goes:

As always be BRUTALLY honest...

Thanks Papa! Some really cool things going for you in that cover. The Death Star'esque background is a great idea, looks real nice! Using Vader's perspective for the description is pretty sweet idea as well. The font for that probably should not be any bigger than 12 pt... 10 pt even. The SW logo is pretty overwhelming as well, front and side. The front one may be OK, but is just looks a bit gaudy because it overwhelms the Vader in the background of the art. If you got a really nice Vader head-shot with great contrasts, it may work as is. Last thing, Palpy is pretty lost behind the text... I don't know if he is needed anyway.

Confidence will be built with practice and constructive criticism. Most of the better artists appreciate criticism as a means to grow, rather than the "rock star" mentality of... "it is my art i can do what I want." Especially in here.... we are trying to share our art to please others, and showcase what is very important to us. What others think is very important. We won't please everyone, but we can please who we can.... plus it is wicked fun!
