The sketch to the right was me trying out some new concept art for UAAT. Ever since her new Rebels outfit was released, I've been thinking about how I would combine that and the old TCW-future-Ahsoka look, which I also really like, as something intermediate between the two. This was sort of a cross between the Rebels and TCW styles as well on an Ahsoka in her late twenties, or at least as close as I could get with my limited experience XD

The second one, oooohhh, the second one... VERY HAPPY with the way that one turned out, and, as I was drawing it, I further cemented something I already know: creative stuff turns out the best when you're not really thinking it over too much. 

And that sketch, which in my head I call the Ahsoka Tribute, is among the first I always show people when they ask to see what's inside my sketchbook.

There's a story behind the sketch too. I drew it at some point an episode or two before the season finale OF FEELSSSSSS, because I had a sinking feeling something was going to happen to her. So, I drew it, saying to myself, "Okay, if she doesn't make it, then this is my tribute to her awesomeness. if she DOES, then it's a celebration of her continued awesomeness."

But, since the ending was SO KRIFFING AMBIGUOUS, I have no way of knowing for sure. So I'm just calling it the tribute for now.

The shading and shadowing were AWESOME, the proportion was pretty good, I love the pose and the lightsabers, and her expression just looks like it's got a story behind it... And the entire thing is almost perfectly accurate with the Rebels design, which makes me very happy :)

So, I hope you all like this one last sketch, which I PROMISE is a real doozy... Enjoy :D
