Hawk got a 'You can draw Star Wars" book from Santa and as a treat for him tonight I said, "you pick whatever you like out of it and I'll draw it", the only condition was that it couldn't be Yoda.
So as I was putting the bins out he was busy deciding on what he'd like me to draw, he came running out to me with the book in hand saying "this one, this one", a bloody Droideka, for those that don't know what this is it's basically a robot with no real humanoid style that rolls up into a wheel and rolls into place, once there it becomes a gun turret type of thing that generates its own force field. Don't get me started on that one, i.e. how come the force field deflects laser fire but allows the Droideka's own laser fire to penetrate it?
Anyway, it was always going to be difficult getting the level of detail required onto a little A5 page, so I compromised.
Going by last night's doodle and the response from Lester I added in the 'comic relief' droid as a sort of roadside assistance robot, he runs around and gives broken down robots a jump.
I hope Hawkie likes it okay? I'm sure he'll tell me that just like the Australian cricket team there doesn't seem to be enough depth.
