First, let me say that this drawing was meant to be a doodle. I started drawing it with a #2 pencil on copy paper that already had ink spots on it, (see his left shoulder). My son and I were playing a Star Wars video game and I just happened to pick up a pencil and started to draw Darth Vader. Well, I got carried away with it. When I finished the head, my son told me he wanted to hang it on the wall in his room. When he said that, I decided to make it a little nicer and started drawing over the #2 pencil with darker lead. I also used a 3 1/2" action figure for a model, so I hope you'll cut me some slack. LOL!

you must have watched star wars alot to get this picture just right. are you and darth vader married or something? go to school and look at some real girls. stop playing your video games and watching your star wars and go out or something. you could be such a stud, but youre a geekLeah Jaarveth 14 Feb 2006

Powerful image, great portrait or pencil work!Jenna Anderson 05 Feb 2006
i think it came out pretty well .. the ink just looks like "battle" marks on the armor. it actually looks like it was done with charcoal instead of pencil !Ruth Tyson 05 Feb 2006
Excuses, excuses! You don't need our approval, your son's reaction says it all. I especially like the light reflection across his shoulders though, since you're asking, lol.Lara Falcone 04 Feb 2006
