Some old designs Circa 1998

I was digging through some old notebooks and came across this gem. Here are a bunch of sabers I drew in Illustrator back in the day. If I remember correctly, I actually made a website – Animated gif header with tie fighter and all – and "showcased" all of the drawings.

Can't believe these are from almost 20 years ago.

That's some pretty impressive 1998 Illustrator work right there. Thanks for sharing!

I can just imagine the heavy use of the BLINK tag, and the perpetual under construction animated gif. Good times.

These illustrations are really nice. I can see the TPM influence in them.

You're definitely right. The one on the bottom left is a clear riff on QG. These may be circa 1999 then.

Was there a midi playing in the background?

Haha no I don't think so. I believe the most I did with audio at that point was custom system sounds for MacOS9
