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 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.
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?”
i think we’re just mad about tlj because of the wasted POTENTIAL? and i’m not even talking about the racist ass bullshit inherent in cutting down screentime of all poc in favor of monsieur school shooter & rian’s oc reyye the soft white girl like. the legitimate plot, character, & theory opportunities. in addition to the racism, obviously.
snoke? people obviously had tons of theories on who he was. there were theories on where his power came from, why people followed him, how he treated ben/kylo, etc etc etc. we were all so ready to see the result of PROFESSIONALS working on this, and what did we get? nothing. dead snoke. didn’t matter.
knights of ren? people theorized ofc that they were from luke’s school, but there was so much more– what they did, where they were, what relationships they had with each other. there were so many amazing OCs that came out of the knights of ren, and rian chucked them out in favor of the praetorian guard.
rey’s parentage? i would have taken KENOBI over this. with the amount of parentage shit not only in tfa but within tlj itself, ‘rey nobody’ was horrifically underwhelming. that didn’t even contribute to the plot; scenes like the mirror mirage ended up meaning nothing and only existing to draw the audience along & ‘surprise’ them. meanwhile rey solo would have explained all of rey’s thoughts/feelings towards kylo in this film and would have been a FANTASTIC climax.
finn’s parentage? fuck, never mind lesbian moms, senators, skywalkers, princes; couldn’t we have just gotten something? in this film, finn dives headfirst into saving rey & then his mission w the resistance, and while rey gets to look inward and think on herself (however shittily that was done) finn was forced into looking ANYWHERE but at himself. no mention at all of where he came from.
rose? man, the shit i saw. jedi rose. last jedi rose. knight of ren rose. rose who goes from a self-conscious mechanic to a heroic woman who gets to learn that people like finn and rey can come from anywhere. fuck, even the rose we were promised in the promotions (rose who looks up to finn as an idol) appeared for 5 seconds and then was immediately extinguished by Plot Device Rose who condescended to finn and generally ruined everyone’s conceptions of a character and relationship.
luke? not gonna even start.
like, rian had SO MUCH to work with. he was legitimately blessed with such an incredible universe and a fandom that worked tirelessly to theorize and create just for tfa. had he even thought to wait, say, a couple months– i’m not even gonna say a year!– to learn from the people who weren’t professionals, this film could have been so much more.
and yeah, that does hurt to think about. that all those possibilities are over now. that rian killed them just to seem cool. yeah, that sucks.
