Try squinting Santa's eyes as if he is straining. I like how you have a Princess Leiah doll in the bag. I think you should push that idea more to bring a better connection to the iconic Star Wars items. Can you add Yoda as if Santa called him in to teach him to harness the force? This is a challenging thing to show in a static image. Keep working on you sketch until it reads before jumping into the next stages. I love the style so far!

Try re watching the scene in the original film where Luke is using the. Force to lift his x-wing out of the swamp and use that for inspiration.

I like all the suggestions. I will add a cloak and a light saber. I also like the squint idea. I am glad the Princess Leiah doll in the bag was obvious. It is easy to get too carried away, however, so I have to 'reign' it in a bit... pun intended, to avoid it getting too busy.

@Lynn-Larson Nice ideas Lynn.
-
Value study. Any input? -
I think the POV throws me off... Why exactly does he have a lightsaber drawn when there's no enemy? If he's using it here like a light source, it makes no sense to have it held so low. Maybe raise that arm up as well...
Otherwise this look like Santa lifting the sleigh before it's loaded, which seems " careless " for lack of a better word, maybe ill planned. Also I don't get the grinning figure just above his lightsaber... which looks like it's about to cut the floating elf holding the bag in two!
What if Santa was in the Sleigh, his eyes closed in concentration, maybe legs crossed in a Yoda/yoga position, arms raised with lightsaber out, lifting the whole sleigh up with bags and elves flying up and out of it. I like the reindeer watching the sleigh float up, the other one seems scared of Santa, which is hilarious actually.
-
Nice changes! It reads more star wars now. I do suggest having Santa a lighter value--one in between the light from the saber and where he is now on the value scale. I really like this!

@Bobby-Aquitania
Agree that the lightsaber shouldn't be on.Maybe just have it hanging at the waist.

Thanks for all the input. Bobby, you have me thinking of redesign for the sake of story. I will need to go back to the drawing board.

It's still a great piece man, I would do the suggestion of sheathing the lightsaber on the belt and keep this...

Can some one tell where and how I post for the 3rd Thursday submission. I think it says something about Twitter but I don't use Twitter. Also what time does the judging begin on the 18th?

@Chris-Perry email it to: svslearninfo@gmail.com and then post it on the 3rd thursday forum
