Mara Jade

(The Emperor’s Hand)

If I thought creating a likeness of a character seen only in cartoon form was hard, now I have to figure out how to make a likeness of a character only ever referenced in books! I’m trying my best to remember Timothy Zahn’s description of Mara. I do remember that her hair should be more golden rather than pure red and that she often likes to have “a trick up her sleeves” so I added some sleeves, even though most people portray her without them. After asking some friends for more advice on how she should look according to Zahn’s books, I sculpted a new face morph for her since my initial concept preview. I added an Imperial logo to her belt to give her outfit more detail and character.
