My place in the SW Universe... thank you Joe Corroney

Just something I wanted to share.

Check out this link...

Jerrod Maclain - Wookieepedia, the Star Wars Wiki

The larger image is artwork from Issue 70 of the Star Wars Insider.. A holonews report. The artwork was done by the well know Star Wars artist Joe Corroney.

I met Joe about 10 years ago at Comic Con. I contacted him sometime after and commisioned art for the pilot image seen below. I sent him a head shot of mine and a picture of Luke in flightsuit.

A couple years later Joe contacted me and wanted to know if he could use one of my head shots for Jerrod. I said sure but I'll do a more evil looking pose, so I sent him some others which he liked.

Here is his work. (I also own the original ink line art of Jerrod as well as a color print also signed). If you have issue 70, look me up.

Pro - I was wearing the shirt and vest in the picture I sent Joe, so all I need is a Dooku cape and i got a spot on Jerrod Maclain costume.

Con - No one would know who I am. I would just be "That weird guy in the cape".

You might also think about getting a protocol droid for photobombing your pics at conventions.

People demanded an action figure of the guy in ESB running through Cloud City with an ice cream maker. Don't sell yourself short. :lol

You're right. With any luck, I could be the next peg warmer.
