Star Wars Lunch Bag: A description

Star Wars Lunch Bag: A description

Star Wars lunch bags were something I started for my eldest son when he began Summer Camp in 2009. It was something special that I could do for him each day. It also acted as an ice-breaker, a conversation piece between my son, the camp staff and the other campers. Now, I've got two boys in camp, so it's double the quota. Each night I draw up pictures, usually something "Star Wars-y" on the next day's lunch bags. It can be any thing: a ship, a character, a mash-up, or whatever ( I do take requests.) It's something fun for them to discover each morning. And, it's a reminder of me, their Dad, when they are off having fun at camp.
In years past, most of the bags were kept by the camp staff. But, so far this year, the boys have been bringing them home to keep for themselves.

Some of the bags turn out fairly decent. And others, perhaps, not as successful or artistically satisfying. But, in the end, it's all for fun - theirs... and mine.

Jawa Sandwich Crawler + 212th Clone Trooper - Day 18 - 2013

 
The Jawa Sandwich Crawler treks across the barren wastes of Tatooine, selling all manor of sandwiches, and other tasty treats. I thought my littlest would find the idea funny, but after I finished it I my had doubts. Luckily he came running in the next morning telling me how much he loved it. For the other bag, I was in the mood to draw my stylized version of a Clone Trooper. It became a 212th once I chose his colors - my favorite Orangey-yellow.
