Description Just a quick sketch of what I think he would look like 2D animated, since Disney prefers 3D animation and he appears in Star Wars Rebels like this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=51gcEV…

Sorry for the Thrawn spam. He's just so fun to draw XD Such an awesome villain.

Thrawn is NEVER spam, and I love what you did with him. I'm not such a fan of the SW:R version of him, myself. Here, he looks a lot more like he did in the pages of the HTTE, DFR, and TLC sourcebooks from the 90s, and I loved his look back then. The new style, not so much, so thank you for this!

Thanks! Yeah, I based him more on pre-Disney concepts, but used their color pallet. I'm trying to find a way to make an actual animation using a Rebels scene. I know how to make hand-drawn animation and I'd love to see this version in action myself. Curious to see how the Rebels voice fits this design

The BEST voice for him, imo, was done by Marc Thompson, who read the audiobooks of the original Thrawn trilogy for Audible. The moment I heard his take on Thrawn, I loved it, because he sounded exactly the way I heard him in my own head when I read the books; deep, modulated, and thoroughly cultured, both polite and menacing at the same time. Thompson is the reason I purchased the audiobook version of "Thrawn," too, even though I had to do it at full price after already purchasing the book. Sadly, his Thrawn voice in that one is very different. Either because he forgot what he did 8 years ago for Thrawn, or because someone wanted it to be more like the cartoon version this time. It's a little whispery for me, drawn out, and with the organ music they insist on playing in the background in the journal entry sections, he sounds more like a Dracula or Vincent-Price-in-a-horror-flick clone.
Your art definitely fits with the HTTE trilogy version, though. Probably why I love it, lol!

I've yet to finish the books. I don't read many books anymore. I like to have them read to me sometimes, especially with some decent voice acting.
This one is the first one I heard, before Rebels came out www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCgf2p… I like it very much.
True, Disney's version sounds a bit wispy, but then it also gets interesting when he raises his voice and sounds more powerful I'm fine with either.
I think I'll draw some "screenshots" in this style. My animation skills are kinda rusty, lol. I did find some cool software though.

I can highly recommend the audiobooks. They have sound effects, music, and pretty good voice acting, even though it's just the one guy doing all the voices. Marc Thompson sounds a lot like Han, Lando, and even Luke, though maybe not so much like Leia, haha. Still, I wasn't put off by him.
I was a little less awed by his acting in the "Thrawn" audiobook, sadly. All of his Imperial female characters are shrill or whiny except for Ahrinda Pryce, and Zahn included a lot of women this time. Still, I liked his vision for Eli Vanto and he still makes Thrawn cool to listen to.  I like to listen to books over my headphones while I am working, and when they are done well like the Thrawn books, they make the day go a lot faster.

Great Cesar's ghost! Thrawn's magnificent here! The "no pupils" look is totally more badass than Rebels. Right under Vader and Maul, this intelligent villain is my most favorite dark side character!

I tend to agree I took inspiration from the comics, where he look more like this, including no pupils.
