Description I really liked the Star Wars Book Betrayal by Aaron Allston, so I decided to create two of the main characters. Jacen Solo is the oldest son of Han Solo and Princess Leia. Ben Skywalker is the only child of Luke Skywalker and his wife Mara Jade. Jacen is a Jedi Knight that has taken Ben as his Jedi apprentice.

I designed the two men using Poser 6, a digital graphics program. I rendered them nude and then, using Corel Painter, I painted on their clothing, hair, weapons and such.

Good eye! I have a son named Jason and I guess it is just a habit that is hard to overcome. I have to get around to fixing it. Thanks for pointing it out.

Well it's quite good. I really like the way Jacen looks cause at this point he wouldn't be all sith-like, but Ben seems a little old to me? I mean, he looks like he's got a bit of five o'clock shadow going on and in Betrayal he's still pushing 13 is he not? Anyways, that's just what I think. Great picture anyways!

Well Ben's doing a great job sticking on the straight and Narrow lol Jacen's just losing sight of everything he wanted in the first place... I mean, in Betrayal wasn't he afraid he'd kill Luke? Now it's just something he's eventually going to have to deal with. And as for Ben's age, yeah, it's tough pinpointing it, but I believe he made the transition from looking like a small fry to the would you like a beer look while on the mission he turned 14. But it's still your depection so i can't really complain now can I?

Thanks for looking and taking the time to comment. I don't see facial stubble on Ben, it may be the lighting is giving that impression.

He does look a bit old. 13 is a tough age to get right. At 13 my brothers had full mustaches and could pass for much older boys. Then I have seen teenage boys that look like they should be going to Elementary school.

I appreciate your comments. Isn't it a shame how horrible the lives of these two characters are turning out?

I love to see an artist render characters from a book. It takes a lot of imagination! Great work!

Thanks. I am slowly learning how to paint. And since I am self taught it is a slow process.

Thanks, but I can't take credit for the faces. I did design them, but with my Poser 6 program. The program renders the two looking like that. I render them in the nude and then paint on all the clothing and such. Since I have yet to learn how to draw a person's face I use the computer animation program to help me out.

Thanks for your kind comment!
