DescriptionThe main artist visiting FACTS Fall Edition in Ghent this year (November 2025) was undoubtedly Steve Leialoha. Knowing how rare his convention visits and commissions are, I contacted him a long while ago, shortly after his announcement. Some friends did as well, but I was the only one getting a reply back, it seems.I could have gone with "Spider-Woman" or "Fables" - like many, many others at the show - but I went with my first love: Star Wars. I asked him for a Luke Skywalker, the version of after "Return of the Jedi", to match his inking work on the final covers of "Star Wars" at Marvel in the 80s. Since he also did the very first inking on the very first "Star Wars" comics ever - over Howard Chaykin -, Steve provided me with two versions of the commission. One with Luke in his "A New Hope" outfit, and this one. As you can see, I went with my original idea. Steve threw in C-3PO and some background, as I gave him some more budget to work with! Love the dynamic pose and the marker effect on the iconic lightsaber! Pencils and inks on 9x12! Fun anecdote - Steve was incredibly kind and generous with his time - taking easily ten minutes for each person in his line, even if for a single signature. Social/Sharing |
