I brought my video camera and took hardly any footage because I was so busy cranking out cards and stuff. BUT luckily we had Denise Vasquez there to help out. Denise is also a Star Wars Artist and she’s such a fun and cool soul. So big thanks to Denise for this awesome video that you put together…Awesome job!

For the sake of proof of authenticity of the autographs on these 2 sketch cards–Here are some more pictures from Star Wars Day at the Frank and Son Collectible Show of Ray Park and Daniel Logan, autographing the Limited Edition Star Wars Day exclusive sketch cards. The show was held on 02.20.10 an Mat Nastos and I created an exclusive set of cards for that day.

You can See Mat Nastos’ card to the left, that has already been signed by Ray.

Boba Fett Frank and Son Exclusive Sketch Card

Hello Boys and Girls! My first card from Star wars Day, of my personal favorite design of my favorite Mandalorian Boba Fett (originally by Ralph McQuarrie) is rounding out a list of items being sold by my art dealer today on Ebay.

Sadly Star Wars day  at the Frank and Son Collectible show is over…but for Mat Nastos and I, Star Wars Day is every day.

The event had an amazing turnout of fans dressed in Jedi, Sith and robotic garb. It was crazy fun and everyone was just celebrating the awesomeness of Star Wars.

All the local LA Star Wars groups including the Saber Guild, 501st, the Mandalorian Mercs and more…They all showed showed up and made this a really memorable event and made Frank and Son’s a very electric place with everything from music and videos to Lightsaber battles. Below, are some examples. Darth Revan is one of my favorite characters ever to draw.

But maybe the best part about yesterday, were the Star Wars “stars” who showed up to sign autographs and mingle with fans.

Ray Park (AKA Darth Maul)

And Daniel Logan (AKA young Boba Fett)

And I got a chance to do some custom cards for the various groups of Star Wars enthusiasts.

And 12 Parsec studios (Me and Mat Nastos) were joined by other prolific Star Wars artists such as Randy Martinez and Pete from Galactic Binder.

Keep your eyes open for the exclusive limited edition Sketch cards we created all day as they will be hitting the market soon!

Thanks – Darth Hef, Dark Lord of the sketch
