Re: My Millennium Falcon art

OK, a good day for me Millennium Falcon wise. A couple of prints and a third Tommervik Painting arrived today.

Firstly, this Tommervik painting. My friend Mike says that this one should be our favourite as it's loads of Falcons on top of one another and could accurately describe our collections. A really nice thought.



This is my third Tommervik and i noticed that he has recently painted two further Millennium Falcon works. I think i'll call it a day for the time being. Maybe next year.

Re: My Millennium Falcon art

A also got two nice prints from Etsy that feature the Millennium Falcon. The first is this rather nice ROTJ poster by Handz.

I also got this rather nioce A to Z poster from the designer nursery. I liked the contrast on the orange one, but there are 17 colour variations.

Re: My Millennium Falcon art

My last aquisition is this superb Millennium Falcon print by Noodlehug. Many of the posters that i've bought recently have only featured the Falcon, so it's nice to get one that's all about the Falcon. This one's my favorite




He also does a Tie Fighter, X-Wing Fighter, AT-ST and Luke's Landspeeder in a similar style.

Re: My Millennium Falcon art

Very fine artwork Rodders. You find the coolest prints.

On the A-Z poster. What does the letter "U" stand for? I can see C-3PO in that spot. I'm just curious.

Re: My Millennium Falcon art

I'll have to dig mine out to check. It's probably a protocol droid of a different designation, although i can't for the life of me understand why they didn't go with the Uganaughts.

The Wookieepedia gives a listing for a U-3PO, so that's presumably who it is. My guess would be the artist wanted the familiar figure of a protocol droid, but as he'd already used "C" for Cloud City, he used this one instead.

That's lame. He should have placed C-3PO where "C" is and put the Underwater city of Jar Jar's people where "U" is located.

Re: My Millennium Falcon art

Perhaps he'd nearly got to the bottom of the poster, then realised he'd missed out C-3PO, but couldn't be bothered to go back and change the whole thing back to "C"...

Re: My Millennium Falcon art

I picked up this rather interesting Steampunk print of the Millennium Falcon. It's called Millennium Zeppelin by Chris Kawagiwa.



It's available as a tee shirt on Mightyfinetees, but i contacted the artist to see if he's release it as a print and he sent me an artist proof. I love it.
