Description
UPDATE WHUT.Don't full-view unless you've read up on Spoilers for Fate of the Jedi: Outcast! (Although I'm sure most of my watchers aren't Star Wars fans... in that case, spoil yourself silly and full-view it!)
Seriously sorry for the 2-month hiatus; I guess I totally drained all my juices with that Twilight piece I did because I seriously haven't had any inspiration to draw ANYTHING...
...until I read up on the spoilers for Outcast.

SPOILER
After 5.5 years of waiting, Jaina and Jag FINALLY are back together again. I've never drawn too much Jaina/Jag fanart because those two are my all-time favorite ship and I care so much about getting them right that I'm too intimidated to draw them. But when I read that my hope and prayers had been answered and THE MAN (Allston) got them back together, the juices came flooding back immediately! Unfortunately, since I haven't drawn in two months, it took me HOURS to get this right, and I was simply too exhausted to color it so I half-assed some tones. (I'll get around to coloring this someday. Like all those other ones I said I would color.
)Anyway, if you don't know who the heck these guys are, they are Jaina Solo (Han Solo and Princess Leia's daughter) and Jag Fel (son of the Empire's greatest fighter pilot) from the Star Wars Expanded Universe. Jag was introduced in 2000's Dark Tide: Ruin, where it was immediately clear that he was meant for Jaina. They didn't hook up until 2002's Enemy Lines: Rebel Dream, and it was unclear whether they stayed together after 2003's The Unifying Force. Finally it was revealed that they had broken up in 2005's Dark Nest: The Joiner King (much to the dismay of thousands of Jaina/Jag fangirls). THEN I had to endure 3.5 years of torture reading about how Jaina and Jag end up on opposite sides of a war and Jag despised Jaina. (Thank god I do a lot of cardio because otherwise my heart would have not had held up during this period.) There was Jag being stranded on a jungle planet for two years, the love triangle between Jaina, Jag and Zekk, and Jaina's unfortunate destiny as Sword of the Jedi.
But finally, FINALLY, Allston made it happen. The wait was totally worth it. And my Star Wars mojo is BACK.

I thought this was Obi Wan and his girlfriend from the animated clone wars tv show.

darn - I though the man was obi-wan
oh well - great piece anyway!

Nicely done. I like that you included Jag's trademark shock of white hair.

I thought these were Kyle Katarn and Jan Ors (though she doesn't have the right hand, instead - a prosthetic one). The combo of words of Jedi and Outcast add more to such view while you watch the picture for the first time without actually reading the description.

what's up with the love triangles? i swear it's bloody popular in anime...i think the authors want to make it hard for us to choose which guy we want the girl to get...gives me a headache.

I wish I did.

Hey SoIo, just wanted to let you know (if you didn't already) that you're on the first page of a Google search for Outcast (Star Wars Outcast, to be specific). You've made the big time!

I am an enormous SW fan Love this work. Can you believe what is happening in the SW universe?? To avoid spoilers I will leave it with JACEN??? WTF

I know, it's a crying shame.

Better yet, Jag asked Jaina to marry her in the latest book and Jaina said yes.
๐: 0 โฉ: 0
I personally can't stand this couple. Particularly because, if you read the Legacy Comics, Jag Fel's family regains control of the Empire and again declares war on the Galactic Alliance. So, if they finally marry, Jag becoming Emperor and Jaina his Empress, their family would be complicit in destroying the very thing Jaina's parents and uncle struggled so hard, for so long, to create. That's what I think is missing from the post-ROTJ EU: a radical former rebel character who says "No peace with the Empire. Keep fighting until they are dust."
Anyway, my rant aside, this is a fantastic piece of artwork, and I think you portrayed both Jaina and Jag well.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
to be fair the moffs declared war. Roan Fel didn't authorize any atrocities. anyway they are such a cute couple.

Love this piece!

I love this pose and I love this couple.
We shippers have known all along that we had it right. They belong together
๐: 0 โฉ: 0
Oh, I love this! The poses work so well, you really captured the characters, and the caring between them is obvious. And man, am I glad to see those two back together...

Thank you so much!! It means a ton coming from you, I absolutely love your work (especially the Star Wars pieces!)!!!
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
You're welcome, I really like it! And no way--you've seen my work? That's so cool.
๐: 0 โฉ: 0
I absolutely abhor Jaina/Jag, but this piece is fantastic. I'm blown away by the ease with which it seems you were able to draw the two. The pose is so natural, no stiffness at all. And they look so cute together here! <33
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
That's interesting. Why do you abhor the Jaina/Jag pairing? You're the first person I've seen who's agreed with me there?
๐: 0 โฉ: 0
I like the art, it's very clean and fresh. Jag's still a jerk though. Where's the love for Zekk?
๐: 0 โฉ: 0
YAY!

I haven't been keeping up with the EU as of late because it's seemed to have lost it's swing, but THIS, THIS news makes me very very happy!

oh god
How the hell someone manage to get Outcast THIS early? Isn't it due late March?

That's great. I like your Star Wars pics so much

Nanana not reading anything... I add you to my deviantwatch and right away, first thing I see is a spoiler.
Heh, either I'm pretending to see something that's not there, or I'm seeing something I always assumed anyway, so I guess it's all good.

GAH!! Gorgeous!! I don't have the book yet, but have been suspecting strongly that this was about to happen (within the first couple FOTJ books, anyway)--what a gorgeous interpretation! I've already commented in 's gallery that I LOVE how you've drawn them both--Jag truly resembles Soontir here, with the tidy goatee, slicked back hair and uniform; Jaina looks painfully like her mother, and I adore that she seems to be the one intiating here (Jag would be the one to wait for her to come to him and not push things...). Lovely hands and pose--this is so beautifully romantic!

Dude, I've been saving this message in my inbox for like a month so I could respond to it, I'm sorry it took me so long! But I really just wanted to tell you how high praise your comment was, you're like my favorite Star Wars EU artist on DeviantArt and I just really, REALLY appreciate all your kind words!! Thank you so so much! (Wow, how have I not added you all this time? I gotta fix that.)
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Ha! I don't think I had you on my own watch list, either, so off I go to rectify that now! **rushes out--comes back** And your work is so wonderful (I actually had to have someone else make the observation that the figures here form a heart-shape...frikkin' genius!

Of course! I'd love to see what you come up with! Do you want the original lineart?
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Sure. I've already got this version mostly colored, but the texture does leave some unflattering marks on the skin in spots. How do you want to send it?
