Had to share this, I know everyone hates on the prequels but still couldn't believe I won it at the price I did:

This is probably in the top tier of sketches I've seen. Big congrats on winning this amazing piece!

Thanks yeah I was willing to pay much more for this one. Unlike a lot of people, I actually enjoyed episodes II and III so this final culmination is really a moment I enjoy in the films. I'm kinda blowing out my budget with how low sketches are selling on ebay ... but the above sketch is something too nice to restrict with a budget lol here's the source material for the foreground:

On the one hand "Oh man my sketch collection isn't worth what it used to be" on the other hand "Who cares since I'm keeping them! BUY BUY BUY BUY!" lol

tell me about it! ha ha I just picked up an awesome Crowther from Masterwork last night (stormtrooper) between low sketch card prices, the great variety in prints from Mondo/Bottleneck I may be out of funds by the time Celebration comes a long ha ha which would not be good as I somehow landed VIP

Lol you won that one? I had to remove it from my watch list ... my spending went WAYYY over budget last weekend. I opened up my e-mail Monday morning and was like "Yeah, didn't expect to win all of that ..." lol now's your time to shine, man, I am down to only watching 1 or 2 needs for the rest of this week! :-/
