Description Now this is something I'm SUPER pumped about. Star Wars was such an inspiration to me as a kid and I remember thinking time and time again "I wish I could do Star Wars art!". Well, whaddaya know. I get to do Star Wars art! Fantasy Flight Games is releasing their new Star Wars living card game soon and a couple of my cards were spoiled at the previews at GenCon. The first card I did for the game was none other than Darth Vader. I'm really humbled that my art director felt comfortable enough giving me the task to create art for the most badass sci-fi villain of all time. Rarely do we get to see Vader dealing with rebel scum in such a direct way, so I'm sure you can imagine how giddy I was when I got the initial prompt.

I really enjoyed the movie overall, but it's definitely the most memorable scene in the entire thing.

Well done, For me the best part of Rogue One was the end there when Vader boarded the rebel ship like an unstoppable force of nature.

Thanks! Yeah it was a great scene. Really glad we finally got to see a suited Vader being a full on badass.

Shouldn't somebody at 20th Century Fox/Disney owe you royalties here? LOL

Hahaha if only. Seems to be a running theme for my Star Wars work this past year. But that's the way it goes with licensed work!

Oh f*ck. That's the best representation of Vader's rampage at the end ofΒ Rogue OneΒ I ever seen. Somehow makes it even more awesome than the already fear-inducing movie sequence.

Excellent work recapturing the final scene in Rogue One. It really surprised me when I saw it, and the scene was rife with desperation & raw terror.

Thank you! This actually was painted about 4 - 5 years before Rogue One, so I like to think they did a good job of capturing my painting on film hahaha.

YOU DO NOT FUCK WITH VADER!!! Awesome job, highlighting why the dude's as badass as he is. This is incredibly epic. The colouring's intense, the details are incredible and the looks on the stormtroopers are really well done, showing them as being helpless against the sith lord.

Immediately thought of this when the scene happened in Rogue One. You're probably getting enough comments on the matter, so I won't bore you any more than just to note that your artwork here was one of the first things to come to my mind.
