Paul Johnson (2015)
What if there was an Empire-focussed short Star Wars animation, drawn with the crazy detail and shading of classic 80s anime that’s all but vanished from Japan nowadays? Well, I tried my best. Apologies in advance for not living up to Venus Wars standards. Drawn and animated by yours truly over 4 years’ worth of weekends, with music by the living guitar solo Zak Rahman and sound design by up and coming audio technician Joseph Leyva. Fans of Lucasarts’ seminal 1994 TIE Fighter game may notice a few familiar sights and sounds. That “incoming missile” noise gives me horrible flashbacks to this day…

I agree 100%. It was the only one that lived up to the original trilogy in my humble opinion.
So excellent.
And as an aside, I feel like Rogue One was the best of the live action crop of the new generation of Star Wars lately…..
No problem. Always glad to share.
I will…thanks. Looking now
Check out OtaKing77077 on YouTube. He has numerous animations done in the anime style. He’s quite talented.
My son looked over my shoulder and asked what TV show this came from…he wanted to see more. A lot of work went into it.
I thought it was cool. I can’t believe it’s just a fan-made animation created by one dude.
That is great… The drawing and the sound fit perfectly…loved the look of it and the guitar…
