Known to his colleagues as the "nicest guy in comics" and to his fans as the #1 Star Wars Artist, Dave Dorman is finally spilling his coveted, never-before-revealed trade secrets in his new two-DVD series, "Illustration Techniques with Dave Dorman" through Hollywood's The Gnomon Workshop. Dorman, son of deceased Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Jack N. Dorman, has earmarked a portion of the DVD sales for the children of active military who want to attend Hollywood's prestigious Gnomon School of Visual Effects (http://www.gnomon3d.com). "I remember how tight money was as a military kid when I was trying to get my art education," Dorman explained. "If I can help even one family out, then something very good has come from this project." The DVDs are available now at http://www.TheGnomonWorkshop.com, http://www.DaveDorman.com and in artist supply stores nationwide; Volume 1 (pencil illustration) is 120 minutes long and retails for $49.95; Volume 2 (traditional oil painting) is 140 minutes long and retails for $59.95.
The Man Who Shot Luke Skywalker Posted By Dustin on August 27, 2008: Many of you probably don't know Photographer Kim Simmons, but you will recognize his photography of vintage and modern Star Wars collectibles. He has opened up a website right here where you can now order prints and posters of his nostalgic photography so many of us grew up with over the years. We (The Ohio Star Wars Collectors Club) had Kim as a VIP guest at this year's Summer Social and I must say the prints he has are amazing to see first hand!
