This morning I noticed how large my stack of "unused" sketches had gotten, so I decided to go through them and I found quite a few sketches of Jaden I had never scanned in. Most of them were crap (don't know why I kept them ;p ) but this one looked okay. I don't know why I never scanned it in. I'd like to think it was because I was hard at work on commissions, but it was probably just laziness :D . So I just cleaned the lines a bit and decided to make this a pic of when Jaden was still an apprentice.

For those not familiar with the story in the game "Jedi Academy", Jaden Korr (a unisex name in case you want to create a male Jaden :boo: ) is a Force sensitive who built her own lightsaber without any training, which got the attention of Luke and his Academy. She was assigned Kyle Katarn's apprentice. Halfway through the game Jaden loses her lightsaber and has to build a new one (which could be dual lightsabers or a double-blade, but I just give her another single saber :D ). Luke also annoints her a Jedi Knight.

So Jaden's first lightsaber is green. The color of her second lightsaber will be determined by her skin color (which I still haven't decided on ;p ) A purple saber if she's blue or blue saber if she's red (maybe I should do a poll). I'm also still working on the design of her body tattoos, which I just realized I forgot the tatts on her lekku :doh: .

I really wanted to do a new drawing to unveil my choosing red Jaden. But with all the work I need to catch up on, it's going to be awhile before I'm able to draw anything new for myself. So I just modified my Jaden apprentice pic to make the outfit she wears as an apprentice look more like it does in the game, as well as redo her first lightsaber (in the game it's called a "Retaliator"). Also filled in the base colors and added a little reflective glow, which I think I'm going to start doing in more of my pics :D

I did manage to finish coloring a few things while I was away. I think I finished this one back in Novemeber or Decemeber. I just remember it was cold ;p

I think I just stuck with one lightsaber myself. I like the three modes and all. Plus, I played JK2 religiously and they only had one saber, so... XD

Yeah, "Jedi Outcast" came out about the same time Episode I did, so I think they were too deep in development to add double-bladed sabers, though the PC version did have code to allow you to use Windu's purple saber color. When "Jedi Academy" came out I was all about the double-blade :D thanks to Maul making them look so durn cool 8-) . But then Episodes III comes along and makes single blade sabers cool again ;) .

Yay for the another Twi'lek Jaden! :D :thumbsup: :dance: :D
:iconpiraterose:
Everyone knows that Jaden Korr is not a human male, but a female twi'lek. I've yet to meet anyone who doesn't like Jaden as a Twi'lek.

(watch there are going to be about ten posts disagreeing with me after this...)

There are almost twice as many women over the age of 18 who play (video) games than there are boys under the age of 17. [link]

Damn skippy!! We already have more human male Jedi than an order 66 can get rid of :D

Hehehe, unfortunately, there are a few who just don't know better ;p They will learn the price for their lack of vision [Sidious smiley] :lmao:

I would still see Jaden as a human male. I don't care really.

I always see Jaden as a female Zabrak, actually...

Good work--she isn't wearing one of the outfits from the game, is she? I'd like to see this one in color. You've got her likeness down well.
