So I finished these the first week of August, but I'm still going to say "Holy Cow! I finished!" Last fall, I painted nine Kenner Star Wars action figure portraits. I started with Greedo as a test, and then finished the rest of the second wave of A New Hope figures.
At the start of the year, I decided to paint all 93. Then I figured I'd do an even 100 by doing some variants (vinyl and cloth cape Jawa, red and blue Snaggletooth, retro Tarkin, and the Dionaga trash monster). I basically painted 4-5 each week. It took about six months in total. I took most of July off due to surgery.
At the end I included Salacious Crumb and the Max Rebo band. When all was said and done, I painted 102 portraits on 10x10 inch canvases. This is what it looks like laid out on my floor. Now I need to find a wall to put it on.
The canvases stacked on top of each other is taller than I am. See last photos.

These would look awesome completely covering a wall. Even if it wrapped around, kiddie corner. Incredible job on these, Jigs👍
ReplyDeleteThanks. Fun project. Might do Kenner Indiana Jones next.
DeleteThat's amazing! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteThanks. It was good practice.
DeleteI have a wall you can put them on. A big, nice wall.
ReplyDeleteI'm not much of a Star Wars fan anymore, but dig this style of art. The Ewoks look really great. I'd love to some Jawas if you ever do any.
