What it takes to be a top Star Wars illustrator
The Force is strong with this month's ImagineFX: bring out your inner Jedi in our new Star Wars-packed edition.
"The Force is like your artistic talent, it needs to be trained and challenged," says this month's cover artist, Andrew Theophilopoulos – and we couldn't agree more!
Choose your side with two exclusive covers created by Andrew. Are you on the side of the mysterious Kylo Ren, or Rey the desert scavenger?
Our brand new heroine, Rey storms one cover, while the Dark Side's Kylo Ren claims the other: get both and you will see the full, expanded cover art as it's meant to be: light vs dark!
On top of this, you can learn how Andrew created the stunning expanded cover art for issue 129 and give it a go yourself by following his workshop.
We also had the honor of chatting to Star Wars artist, Dave Seeley about his influences and the ups and downs of becoming a successful artist.
