I need Han to accidentally be force strong, mostly because HE WOULD HATE THAT SO MUCH
“Wow so you’re basically a self-taught Jedi”
“WHAT–ARE YOU–I’M THE BEST PILOT IN–”
“That’s force shit”
“I’M AN EXCELLENT SHOT”
“Yeah, because of the force”
“I’M INCREDIBLY PERSUASIVE”
“That’s the force making people believe your terrible lies against all reason ”
“I’LL SEE YOU IN HELL”
I can picture his reaction now…
No, but this is:
Oh heck
George Lucas can pry Force Sensitive Han from my cold dead hands.
I love everything about this theory, but my favourite part of it by far is now utterly offended he’d be by the suggestion.
“…that light still gleamed in [her eyes] that long ago had earned for her the name Eledhwen, proudest and most beautiful of mortal women in the days of old.”
Whenever I picture her in my head, she’s quite dark and in Victorian fashion. No idea why. Sorry.
Ok, I see that you are a bit lost so here is what I can tell about getting used to your palette:
1) The driver
Before using your tablet, you have to install a driver. Is your driver correctly installed? That’s what you should see when you open Photoshop and use the default set brush. I also used the most common brush on the right of the pic:
I’m telling you about the driver because when I was a newbie, I worked during almost one year and a half with a driver that wasn’t correctly installed. I had no pen pressure and no brush dynamics. Don’t ask me how I was even able to WORK with those settings but I didn’t ask myself the question until I saw a tutorial and I was like “Hey, wait a minute…”
2) The position of the tablet
You have several ways of positioning the tablet when you draw. Some people put it right in front of them, some other like me, on the right of the computer or even on the left for the left-handed people.
You have to decide what is more convenient for you. You problems are maybe due to the way you position your tablet or the way you hold your stylus.
3) Rome wasn’t built in one day.
Ok, if what you draw still looks like the drawings of a six years old, it’s maybe because you are lacking practice. What is obvious and very natural to some people can be hard for some others. Carry on practicing and you’ll get results soon! ^^
4) If everything is lost, you can still follow these tuts:
She’s sharp-witted, logical, and incredibly fast-thinking, able to process and respond to events faster even than pretty much anyone else in the original trilogy (and debatably even in the saga). We are told (and shown) that she is an incredible politician–and from an incredibly young age–which also requires a level of intelligence that exceeds the average (by a lot, assuming Leia is, in fact, a good politician (which she is) and not a pandering incompetent who just knows what to say to the public (which she isn’t), and that she wasn’t just handed her role because of birth (which it’s specified that she was elected, so it wasn’t).)
But despite all of this canonical evidence, I feel like this is something that gets…forgotten, a lot of times? Not purposefully–and honestly, it’s not something that needs to be discussed or debated, because it is, and she is, and that is the end of it. Yet, all the same, I think it’s a shame that I have never seen anyone taking time to just sort of…appreciate it, or even think on it beyond a passing comment in a fic, or a statement that she’s good at physics.
So, just for a moment here, I’d like to dwell, and explore that aspect of her.
You’re a regular office worker born with the ability to “see” how dangerous a person is with a number scale of 1-10 above their heads. A toddler would be a 1, while a skilled soldier with a firearm may score a 7. Today, you notice the reserved new guy at the office measures a 10.
You decide it’s best to find out what you can about this person. Cautiously, you approach his desk. He’s a handsome man, tall, but with a disarming smile. How could such a friendly guy with such cute, dorky glasses be dangerous?
You extend your hand. “I noticed you’re new here. What’s your name?”
He shakes your hand warmly. His gaze is piercing, as if he’s looking right through you. “The name’s Clark,” he says. “So, how long have you worked for the Daily Planet?”
This one wins.
It’s been a few weeks, and one of Clark’s friends shows up. She’s pretty and all, enough muscle that she must work out. First thought would be that she should be maybe a 6.
Clark’s introducing her around. “This is my good friend, Diana, she’s in from out of town.”
You blink, and take a step back in fear. You’ve never seen an 11 before.
The more I think on the idea of “A Jedi can come from anywhere!” where being part of a legacy is the only thing we’ve ever seen from Star Wars just absolutely, utterly falls on its face for me.
Luke Skywalker is the only Legacy Jedi we’ve ever seen. But I’ll be generous and throw Leia and Kylo Ren in there as well, I suppose. That’s still only three!
But Anakin Skywalker? Was no one from the ass end of nowhere. There was zero Skywalker Legacy, he was 100% original and started out pretty much just where Rey did. Was he born from the Force? Sure. But the implication on Rey is that she was born to meet the rising Dark in the galaxy, so how is that really all that much different?
Every other Jedi in the prequels? Came from somewhere that we barely even knew, because that wasn’t the important part of their character. They weren’t part of the Skywalker legacy and are you telling me that Obi-Wan Kenobi or Ahsoka Tano or Kanan Jarrus or Ezra Bridger or Maul or Asajj Ventress don’t have important stories?
Oh, but they mean that Force users don’t have to just be Jedi? Okay, sure, but how exactly did TLJ show us that? Rey’s a Jedi. Broom boy is strongly implied that he’s going to be a Jedi. “I will not be the last Jedi,” Luke says. Where are all these non-Jedi Force users?
(p.s. the Nightsisters called to say hi.)
Force users have always come from ANYWHERE and they always will. This isn’t new or revolutionary.
You know, whatever John Ronald Reuel Tolkien planned to do with his life, I don’t think it was to create a cult of obsessive nerds with a thing for overly beautiful long-haired pointed-eared people.
