Review of The Sixth sense
Great movie! I watched on Netflix with there little instant play thing button for the wii and i loved it. It is very confusing though. Not at the beginning but at the end i got confused but other that that good movie. Lets get two the plot. A boy who communicates with spirits that don't know they're dead seeks the help of a disheartened child psychologist.The boy's name is Cole Sneer and he can see dead people. Or ghost or wait there isn't another... O_O Anyway the psychologist who helped him through out the movie name is Dr. Malcolm Crowe. All in all this movie gets 4.5 out of 5 stars from me so I do recommend it highly.

Drawing Anakin Skywalker
Step One:
Drawing lightly with a pencil, create a framework using basic shapes like circles and ovals. The key is to start simple and flesh it out as you go.
Step Two:
Draw the head, chest and shoulders of Anakin. Very lightly with your pencil, create the body and armor outlines over your framework.
Step Three:
Now's a good time to draw Anakin's hair, eyebrows, nose, and mouth. And don't be afraid to erase and redraw lines if need be. Practice makes perfect!
Step Four:
Now that you have the framework down and all of Anakin's major facial features, you can start adding more details such as the lines in his hair, the scar on his face, shading on his nose, the indents on his armor, etc. It can be helpful to use images from The CLone Wars as a reference too.
Step Five:
Go over your final lines with a pen or marker. Once your ink lines are dry, erase the pencil lines. Or use heavier pencil lines over the lighter ones. However you decide to finish your drawing is completely up to you!
Drawing The Millennium Falcon
Steps 1-7 are to be drawn lightly with a pencil. No pen, no dark lines. Finished lines and details will come at the end.
Step One:
Start by drawing two ellipses, one on top of the other. An ellipse is what a circle looks like from an angle, similar to an oval, but not as rounded at the sides. In the early days George Lucas used to describe the Millennium Falcon as a "Flying Hamburger," think of these two ellipses as the bun.
Step Two:
Now draw a smaller ellipse within in the top ellipse. It should be just a little above the center. From the center of this new small ellipse draw a straight line angled down and to the right. This line will be the direction the Millennium Falcon is pointing.
Step Three:
Draw a straight line coming from each side of the larger top ellipse to a point on the center line. Then draw two more lines from the sides of the lower ellipse parallel to the lines coming from the top one. You now have a big triangle coming off the front of the "Hamburger."
Step Four:
Cut the front off of this big triangle by drawing a wide rectangle. The sides of this rectangle will be straight up and down. The top and bottom of the rectangle are angled from this point of view. The corners will be where the sides cross the lines drawn in Step Three. Divide this rectangle into three smaller equal size rectangles with two more short lines.
Step Five:
Draw two long straight lines from the top of the new center rectangle to the small ellipse on top of the "Hamburger." These lines should be parallel to the center line we drew in Step Two. Draw one more line from the bottom right corner of the small center triangle. This one should be parallel to the rest but you can stop short at the edge of the bottom large ellipse. Now draw two lines from the small center ellipse out to each side of the larger ellipse. These will be angled like the front rectangle.
Step Six:
The lines out to the sides are the guides for drawing the raised areas that divide the front and back of the ship. Draw the long rectangles and angled sides for them. At the end of each of these draw a tapered cup shape. These cups don't stick out any further than sides of the "Hamburger Bun." Draw an even smaller ellipse inside the top center ellipse. This is the gunner's window. Draw the center rectangle between the front wedge shapes now. Follow the earlier guidelines but make it a little wider. It will stop short of the wedge shapes so you will also draw a little bit of the bottom rectangle too. Now the Millennium Falcon is really taking shape!
Step Seven:
Han and Chewie need a place to sit! Add a cockpit and the hallway to it. The cockpit is a cup shape with a short cylinder behind it and the hallway angles in towards the center of the ship. George Lucas referred to the cockpit as an olive off to one side of the hamburger.
Step Eight:
Now all the main shapes of the ship are drawn and you can lightly erase the lines you don't need and start to darken up the others. It's time for the details! There are two round holes on each of the front wedges and an octagonal hole between the cockpit hallway and the center rectangle. Draw a group of six ellipses on the back end for the rear vents of the engine. Also add a line to either side of these vents. The radar dish is a simple ellipse with a couple more below it to make the base.
Step Nine:
More detail! Add the bracket to support the radar dish and a small cone in the center of it. The gun turret on top is basically a box with four cylinders sticking out. Across the back behind the engine vents add the wide stabilizer fin. Shield generators go to each side of the center rectangle. Add some shadows in the gap under the center rectangle and within the holes. Don't forget the cockpit windows!
Step Ten:
Draw some more detail lines and the different color panels on the ship's hull. Along the edges add the "meat" of this flying hamburger, you can keep it simple by drawing some lines and boxes. I also like to add a sweep behind the Falcon coming from the engines to give it that extra burst of speed!

Drawing Mace Windu
Steps 1-4 are drawn lightly with pencil. No pen, no dark lines. Finished lines and details will come at the end.
Step One:
Lightly sketch (in pencil) Mace's skeleton in the pose that you want him to have. The line that goes down the middle of his chest represents "the line of action" (kind of like a spine), which is responsible for setting the tone and personality of the character that you are drawing. In this case, it's Mace Windu, so I drew the line of action to show off the Jedi Master's bold stance and leadership. For the lightsaber, draw a very light line to remind you where to put his infamous blade of purple energy.
Step Two:
Use your pencil to loosely fill in the areas to define the shape of Mace's figure.
Step Three:
In this step (still in pencil) sketch in all of the details in his face, clothing and lightsaber hilt.
Step Four:
Now on to inking. Before you start, use a pen that is both "archival" (meaning it doesn't fade over time) and "waterproof" (in case you want to use something like watercolors to color your masterpiece). For this particular drawing, I used a Faber-Castell Pitt pen with a brush tip which lets me draw both thick and thin lines with the same pen.
Use your pen to carefully go over your pencil drawing. Ink everything except the area where the lightsaber blade will be. This is very important for the last step. Take your time, and make sure it's as clean as you can possibly make it. Once you're happy with it, wait a few minutes or so for the ink to dry (usually 5 to 10 minutes). Once it is dry, take your eraser and carefully erase all of your leftover pencil markings except for the line for the lightsaber blade.
Step Five:
On to coloring. I color my drawing on my computer using Adobe Photoshop. However, you can pretty much use anything you want for this, like watercolors, markers, colored pencils, or crayons.
Remember that light pencil line that I told you to leave for the lightsaber? Color that last. Use the purple color to make a glowing outline of the blade, leaving white space in the middle -- simulating the awesome energy core of the lightsaber! Once you're finished with the blade, erase the pencil line. You're finished!

Drawing Shaak Ti
Steps 1-3 are drawn lightly with pencil. No pen, no dark lines. Finished lines and details will come at the end.
Step One:
First draw a quick circle so you know where to put Shaak Ti's head. Keep your pencil lines nice and loose so you can easily erase any mistakes.
Step Two:
Next start with simple circles and triangles for construction lines on her face and head lekku. Play around with the placement of her eyes and nose until you're happy where they are.
Step Three:
Add a little more detail around her eyes and mouth and lekku. Erase your construction lines that you don't want to see in the final drawing. Tighten up your pencil lines and make the drawing nice and clean so you can prepare to add color.
Step Four:
I like to color with markers, but you can use anything you want -- crayons, colored pencils, or the computer! You can even make copies of your finished pencil drawing to practice using different coloring media. I add a lot of layers with my markers before I'm ready to ink and highlight the drawing. Here, I put down the grayscale using markers.
Step Five:
After the grayscale, add color. Add the black ink lines after you're done coloring, so it won't bleed when touched with the wet marker. Wait until the markers are completely dry, then go over it with the ink outlines. Use a black pen to go around the head. It can be hard to get a nice, smooth line. Practice makes perfect. There is a lot of detail, so be patient and take your time.
When you're done with inking, add some white pencil to lighten up certain areas, and thicker white paint for the final, strong, white highlights -- like the dots in the eyes, for example. Now you're done! Don't forget to sign your drawing before you show it to family and friends.

Drawing Davage Opress
Steps 1-5 are drawn lightly with pencil. No pen, no dark lines. Finished lines and details will come at the end.
Step One:
Using a pencil, begin with very simple shapes and strokes. Start by creating an oval and some quick lines to provide a basis for where his head and neck will be. Draw lines in the middle of where his face will be so that you'll know where to draw the eyes, nose, etc. This facial features line guide should go about halfway down the oval. Remember, for these early steps, it's best to keep your lines very light. This way you can erase and redraw them if need be.
Step Two:
Start fleshing out the shape of Savage's head. Give him more defined, rounded cheekbones, as well as a squared jaw. This is also a good time to draw in his ears and his eyes. To make him look menacing and evil, make sure his eyes are kind of squinted and narrow, and give him fierce, arched eyebrows. Draw his mouth, which should be frowny and angry.
Step Three:
Add in a few details around the mouth, as well as Savage's nose. For the nose, place it halfway between the eyes and the mouth. Then add in some grimacing lines that go from the sides of his mouth up to his nostrils. These help show the expression that he's scowling. Add a few "scowl lines" under his lip. Again, make sure your pencil lines are very light. You don't want to make anything too final yet; you may still want to make a few changes to your sketch.
Step Four:
Draw his horns. He has two smaller ones on each side of his head, right by his ears, and then six larger ones protruding from his head like a crown. If something looks strange or out of place, this is the perfect time to go in, erase, and redraw it.
Step Five:
Even though this tutorial is really only focusing on Savage Opress' head, it looks nice to add in some of his collar area. Draw the lines that make up his shirt collar. And then you're ready to start finalizing this drawing.
Step Six:
At this point, you should have a fairly complete sketch. If you want to give your drawing a clean, finished look, you can add inks over your pencil lines. This can be done with a variety of pens or markers. Just trace over the lines you want to keep, and when you're done (make sure you let your ink lines dry), go ahead and erase the pencil lines. This is also a great time to add in some smaller details, such as the texture lines on his horns, the pupils in his eyes, and a few more forehead creases to show his angry expression.
Step Seven:
Finally it's time to add the tattoos! Using a pencil first, shade in the areas, as shown in the picture, and keep them very light. Once they look right to you, you can darker the areas in with heavier pencil lines, or you can use grey markers. You just want to make sure his tats are dark, but not completely pitch black.
Step Eight:
And there you have it -- your very own Savage Opress headshot drawing! You can color it, too, if you like. Here's a color version that I created digitally in Photoshop. You can use markers or crayons or whatever you prefer. It's completely up to you!
Using a pencil, begin with very simple shapes and strokes. Start by creating an oval and some quick lines to provide a basis for where his head and neck will be.
