Me, in concert at Meramec SLCC unplugged.

This is me (I'm the one on the right) receiving Meramec's Outstanding Music Student Award in Spring 2000. That's my theory teacher at Meramec, Bob Howard.

Me, looking for something to break.

Here's my mom's dog, Laddie. Dunno why he looks guilty in this picture.

My sister's cat, Ginny, sitting in my chair which I had just vacated.

This is one of the characters I created for a Star Wars Unreal Tournament mod I'd thought of, but never got to making. This is you, Cutter Darken. He's an assassin, bounty-hunter, smuggler, thief, pirate, whatever pays the most. There needs to be more Star Wars games like that.

This is probably about the oldest Star Wars character I've created. At least, one of the oldest who's still more or less true to the original conception (General Tinas in First Unity has been around for quite some time). Raven has popped up in every Star Wars FanFic idea I've had so far except for First Unity (yet). She would have been a central figure in my UT mod, both as Cutter's main romantic foil, and a second playable character if I had ever gotten around to putting it in motion. Raven is more specialized than Cutter, she's pure pirate. The bird tattoo on her face would be blood-red. If you must know, she's also the origin of my obsession of having at least one gorgeous black-haired black-eyed woman in a story (the Nightsister Letya Re and her sister giving double representation in First Unity). Just to make her a tad more unique, Raven is left-handed.

Yeah, yeah, it's not a sketch. So sue me. This is the blaster I designed for Cutter. It's small but packs a whallop. Also has a laser sight.

This mammoth piece of hardware was also designed for Cutter. This behemoth is one helluva assault rifle, featuring single-shot and full-automatic. Also fits a scope for sniping, but it makes a lot of noise. For size, it's almost as big as a grown man.

These blasters belonged to Raven's arsenal. I didn't make these up, rather modeled them from the Trilogy itself. The rifle is the BlasTech A280 rifle used by the Rebel infantry at the Battle of Hoth. The pistol should no doubt be quite familiar, it's Han's big DL-44 heavy blaster pistol, modeled off the Return of the Jedi variation.

I did these to be silly. They're based on Surf Wars, a Star Wars spoof by Kyle Goodman using characters from his comic strip, Surf Rat and Spencer (in case you're wondering, it can be found here: www.surf-rat.com). The first two sketches are based on promotional and concept artwork (the second picture being based on production artwork by Ralph McQuarrie himself). The third is taken from a still in the Star Wars Technical Journal.
