Star Wars themed stream tonight
🕑 Added 2021-05-01 16:44:35 +0000 UTCTonight 5/1/21 starting at 5:30pm Pacific I'll be streaming on Picarto. Because Star Wars day is just 3 days away Link and because one of my watchers/clients suggested it. I'll be doing a Star Wars themed stream tonight. Besides I have a personal reason for doing it.
I was 12 years old when Stars Wars A New Hope came out. It was the movie that planted the seed in my mind that I wanted to do some kind of art for a living. When that Imperial Star Destroyer roared overhead in the opening scene. Link I effectively got religion. I didn't know exactly what I was going to be doing or where I would do it, but I was going create stuff that was going to be awesome.
In the years since I've moved on to other things, but I cannot deny the influence it had on that 12 year old boy in 1977. So tonight join for an evening of starships, jedis, light sabers, droids, aliens, retro tech along with the obligatory stories and D&D report. The fun goes until 9pm Pacific. See you there!

Honestly, when I saw this announcement, two images I had in mind were: Sweetie Bot as a protocolary droid (like C3PO) and Fluttershy as Jabba's dance/slave... Now that I imagined, I bet Fluttershy would turn even a Rancor into a pet! OH! Flutterbat as a Witch of Dathomir (Clone Wars the animated series) riding a Rancor!

Yes it was. The opening was great especially with the fancy surrounding sound. I had experienced by then F4 Phantoms coming over at a hundred feet doing 400 knots to hit an enemy position. The open scene was still impressive.

Oh yes that scene was amazing, but it happened later in the film. However it was that first scene told me that was about to watch a totally different kind of movie. My dad had talked to some of his coworkers and they'd told him to make sure I had a seat as close to the middle of the theater and as near to the front of the screen. When that star destroyer roared over my mind was opened to a whole new world.

My favorite scene was the swoop into the run on the Death Star. They shot that using a small camera mounted on a multi axis rig rolling thru a large custom built model. Oh I was 25 when it came out.

Nice. Is it wrong to hope we get Rosemary in some kind of revealing Jedi robe?
