This morning’s sketch took us deep into the Star Wars archives. I pulled a CR90 Corellian Corvette from the toy box.
Better known as the Tantive IV, Princess Leia’s ship, and the first vessel we see in A New Hope. Turns out, it was originally designed to be the Millennium Falcon. The model even has a 1976 Playmate centerfold and a Star Wars poster hidden in the cockpit. Nerds gonna nerd.

While I wrangled the details and got bullied by my camera gear, we talked composition, shortcuts, and why even five minutes of drawing is better than none.
Tomorrow’s sketch is a low-crawling soldier from the Korean or Vietnam era. Should be a fun one. Grab your coffee, or favorite beverage, and meet me at 5:30 a.m. Texas Time.
