Hey guys!
212: Glad you enjoyed it. I'd always wanted to do a fight scene where Boba and Han were clobbering each other ... NO BLASTERS! NO BLASTERS!
DR: Really glad you enjoyed the dialogue, I always feel that I'm walking on eggshells when I come up with the speech for such well known characters ... always second guessing myself.
SA: Looks like you were able to catch it at the other sight, glad you did!
Brisk: I respect your honesty; I always invite "constructive crit" ... if you feel that you could share something that would help improve the story, I'm all ears
I am glad you are enjoying it now, a couple of the future chapters may not be as heavy in action, but they should still be fun.
Thanks again for the feedback guys! It's VERY appreciated!!!

Hey guys, here's another chapter.
This will be it till mid-February. I go back to my insane work rotation for 8 weeks which leaves me with just enough time to spend with my fam and not much else. What little leasure time I do have, I'll spend working on my PN diorama sets for the upcoming chapters and of course checking out the sweet new PNs posted from others
Also, I'm going to check out the free G.I.M.P. photo editing program!
(Man, that just sounds bad when ya read it
)
It looks somewhat promising.
As always, feedback is welcome!

Hopefully I can post the next chapter within a couple weeks.
This chapter and the next one, won't be big on character development, but it should be fun anyway.

Already chimed in on the other site, but when I came across this here ... well, I just had to read it again. And just like the movies, everytime I read this, I find something new I hadn't noticed before! Absolutely wonderful, SA !!!
Your outdoor shots are great, the grass really looks like a field; and you nailed Sidious's dialogue perfectly ... I could just feel that gravely voice flow along with your words ... NICE!

Hey Artoo, glad you liked it!
The next one will be extremely heavy in the action department.
I'm dreading, doing all of the effects! It'll take forever

Hi guys, thanks for the really kind feeback!
SA: Man, I can't wait for the continuation of your series ... it's truely wonderful!
I know what you mean by the work thing. That's why I can work on these for 2 months at a time and then I have to take 2 months off ... I have a rotating work shift schedule that switches every other month ... it's nuts, but pays well. But as a result I can't post very regularly.
I wish my effects were better and I actually tried getting PhotoImpact, the same one Chewie uses, off of eBay ... but the guy ripped me off! I swear ... over 200 transactions on the Bay and I've never had a bad experience until then; the dude literally took my money and ran ... so I have a case pending with paypal now. Until then, I'm just using MS Paintbrush that came with my windows
I try not to make the effects look too cruddy, but I'm no Todd McFarlane ....LOL
Ennis: I'm glad you dug the story, it's a lot of fun to kick your feet up and think ...what if? Glad you're enjoying it man.

This PN is just top notch all of the way.
I LOVE the story! It's got that classic Star Wars feel, but it totally original. The characters are just plain fantastic. Your customs are wonderful; I can tell you put a lot of time into this ... something I can respect.
That sinister little jawa makes me smile with delight every time I see him ... a truely brilliant character!
As usual, your sets are amazing. That throne room would be a beautiful piece to be displayed in a den or office ... truely a geek's dream come true!
Straight aces all the way!

Hey Lance,
Thanks again for checking this out. I always appreciate your commentary.
You are hands down one of the most passionate proponants of PNs (if not THE most) I've seen on any of the boards. There is no mistaking your love for Star Wars ... especially the OT!
I totally agree with you on Leia. When I was a kid, I'd always wondered what it would've been like if Luke had caved to the Darkside ... and Leia would've stepped up to the plate ... the whole "there is another" scenerio.
A young Carrie Fisher in a black Jedi robe would've been bad@ss!
Thanks for the feedback, buddy!

I love it!
Brent, your level of detail is just incredible. You just keep developing your characters, and the transitions from scene to scene is very smooth.
I also really dig the custom ship ...VERY COOL!!! What parts did you use?
This is hands down one of the best photonovels out there, keep it up Brent ... lookin' forward to more!
