@sheepfulsheepyard text post had me cackling and I just had to draw it (with permission of course)
Can we talk about Finn for a minute? I keep reading that Finn gets described as “flat” or “boring” by some in the Star Wars fandom. Obviously everyone’s entitled to their opinion. But I’ll tell you, from my perspective? He’s one of the most unique, charismatic Star Wars characters out there.
1. Finn humanized stormtroopers. Made us experience panic and terror at the terrible choices they have to make. Stormtroopers, who were practically a joke in the other movies – white plastic statutes that existed just to get shot and clatter into a pile.
2. Finn’s flight with Poe Dameron is an explosion of emotion. That scene blew me away. Both of them had so much fun with it, and you can see Finn feel the real impact of having a name, rather than being a number.
3. Finn is profoundly empathetic and protective. Hell, I swear he cares about BB8 when he has to describe the plane crash, and Poe’s “death”, to the droid.
4. Finn shows tremendous range in this movie. Traumatized (stormtrooper battle), jocular (”you got a boyfriend?”), joyous (”that’s one hell of a pilot”), wistful (”Take care of yourself. Please.”), angry (ligthsaber battle), I could go on. I like Luke Skywalker as much as the next fan, but I think Finn shows more range in this one film than Luke did in all three.
5. Finn’s story arc is powerful, subversive, and inspiring. Going from a number to a name. Finding a family after being taken from his home as a child. Turning his back on the First Order and then realizing he needs to go further, and embrace the cause of the Resistance.
6. Finn’s relationship with Rey. I’m gonna get choked up about this, so I’ll just say John Boyega is an amazing actor, and I loved every scene he had with Daisy Ridley.
Anyway that’s my fangirling contribution. To me, Finn’s amazing.

‘‘The belonging you seek is not behind you. It is ahead.’’
Sooo yes, the belonging ahead is Kylo, because we see his shadow, and he’s in front of her you know? And the marks are behind her? Anyways some symbolic Reylo stuff ❤
Message me if you have other ideas for them^^
Im thinking of drawing Hux soon too. And Finn. And Poe. And Phasma. And cutie bb-8.
EDIT: this work now has a twin right here
I absolutely love this, and it’s the original. Honestly, this mirrored work (I’ll reblog the other in a minute) inspired the technique I used in my fic for the mirrored Reylo chapters.
‘‘Forgive me, I feel it again. The pull to the light’’
Piece to go with my Rey Belonging piece that you can see right here
Symbolic art again, sitting in the darkness, his marks behind him are lightsaber marks, and all. The pull to the light is Rey, standing ahead in a brighter light than my Rey piece!
Done for the spn_balthazar exchange over at LJ. It has already made its round on tumblr, LOL. Thanks for the heads up guys!
