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.

Cars Wars TIE + 2-1B Medical Advice - Day 8 2013


I was toying around with doing Star Wars ships in the Disney's "CARS" style. My first stab at it was the TIE Fighter. It's actually trickier than I thought it would be. I want to maintain the cockpit windows and not turn it into a TIE Pilot's helmet like they've done with the CARS airplanes. It needs some more development.
I was hitting a wall and needed to do something for this other bag, so I just randomly chose 2-1B the medical droid and whipped it together. Once that was done I figured it needed some dialogue, so it became a public service announcement. Done. Went to bed. Added the white around his dialogue the next morning.
