Happy Life Day!

0201 - Royal House of Naboo (Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace)

I have a fondness for the smaller mounts in #SWTOR; they just feel faster. This Verdier Luxline speeder is the final reward in the current Galactic Season. The emblem with the manufacturer's name is written in #aurebesh using the very appropriate Aurebesh Racer AF Mono by @aurekfonts.bsky.social!

@philszostak.bsky.social Drew Struzan and Mike Butkus did cover art for the first 12 Young Indy VHS releases, out of a planned 22. Do you know if artwork for the remaining 10 planned covers was ever completed (or even just sketched)?

I'm Luke Skywalker, I'm here to rescue you! (Alternate universe where Marcia Strassman played Luke Skywalker.)

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

I don't think a movie should have multiple aspect ratios depending on where and how you see the film.

Thank you Star Wars pinball, Master Yoda indeed Lit. Millions When Lit, so true. Lite the Force.

Because the people demand updates to my interpretation of Bazeese Script and I'm nothing without the 3 of you who follow me.

MICROGRAMMA or EUROSTILE? A handy guide for you to print out and keep in your wallet.

My reimagining of the Kresch, the encyclopedia-mollusk of Otoh Gunga, with the text in Gunganese, and using some (slightly altered) Terryl Whitlatch art.

EWOKS (1985) happy 40th to the animated ewoks, whose title is set in a slightly altered PUTTY BOLD (with LUCASFILM being set in FUTURA BOOK)

DROIDS (1985) and another happy 40th to droids, whose main title seems to be fully custom (or at least based on a font i've never found), but whose subtitle is GROTESQUE NO. 9 ITALIC (with LUCASFILM being set in what looks like NEWS GOTHIC with numbers from AKZIDENZ-GROTESK)

i messed up and identified some star trek fonts by accident. @starfleetdesign.bsky.social was kind enough to not yell at me and tell me to stay in my lane

"Sugaan Essena" from Jedi: Fallen Order means "The Black Thunder" in the language the HU created for the song, and in 2019 it really kicked off the modern trend of going big for the diegetic music in Star Wars video games. youtu.be/YwutOqv4cGo?...

But not the Pizza the Hutt alphabet.

Album art uses the proper ugly Huttese alphabet!

New Mexico is overriding the federal government on the topic of COVID19 vaccines to ensure their residents can access them. States hold a tremendous amount of public health power. They should use it.

Zeffo now sits at 186% + some punctuation and several zemoji. "Jar Jar Binks quietly removed his X-wing fez cap" — Kujet, probably.

BTW, to everyone who has ever freaked out about the LORE IMPLICATIONS of the Zeffo glyphs on the temple on Peridea, what shall we say of the LORE IMPLICATIONS of the Zeffo glyphs inside the New Republic's Defense Council chamber on Coruscant.

The Falcon in this shot is a Polaroid of the model rather than the model itself because there wasn't enough floor space in the studio to shoot it at that scale.

Zeffo has unexpectedly breached 100%* * (Due to alternate glyphs, the final percentage is projected to be roughly 177% before numerals and punctuation)

Zeffo is up to 77%

As much as I would be thrilled to see any of the books I've ever worked on be adapted to a different medium - live action, animation, video-game, etc...that thrill would only be in the underlying work of the author getting more visibility. Because while its cool...adaptation is not validation.

Fun #StarWars fact. When discussing an operation - Operation: Cinder, Operation: Fracture, Operation: Hand-off" a colon is required. When discussing a project - "Project Stardust, Project War-Mantle, Project Necromancer " a colon is not used.

@infinata.bsky.social It seems that most Huttese-language lyrics start out as English lyrics that then get translated into Huttese. But I've never heard any explanation of how the Jedi Rocks lyrics came to be. Can you shed any light on that?

I think the earliest examples of apostrophe'd characters names in Star Wars are from 1979: D'rag (Brian Daley), Katya M'Buele (Chris Claremont), and N'Mrith (Archie Goodwin). Earliest unusual double vowel is from 78: Gormaanda.

Tiaan Jerjerrod is a good example of a name containing sedimentary layers of Star Wars conventions. 80s surname and post 90s first name.

Can anyone identify the source of this text?

A couple more letters for my own aurebesh font (bottom), compared with the more standard version of the same (top, using @aurekfonts.bsky.social's Aurebesh AF font). First image is just the letters AEILNPRS, not a word, second is using it to write names/words. I like how it looks.
