Grand Admiral Thrawn, “Triumph”. Copic markers. 2018.
Combining my love of Thrawn, ancient Rome, and Baroque sculpture. This one is based off Michelangelo’s sculpture of the Medici duke, Giuliano, whch can be found in the Medici chapel in Florence. It is from this statue that we have the mannerist trope of skin-tight armour!
The first door they came to was also unlocked, and Eli breathed a silent prayer of thanks. As soon as he ushered Thrawn inside, he pulled the door closed, turning and leaning against it as he slid to the floor. Thrawn had likewise lowered himself to the floor and was leaning with his back to the wall. His head was tilted back and his eyes closed. Pale light shone from the far side of the room, but for the moment, Eli couldn’t take his eyes off Thrawn. The Chiss was breathing hard, and his face was pinched with pain. He had never seen him with his guard down like this.
“I do indeed serve the Empire,” Thrawn said. “But I also serve the causes of the Chiss Ascendancy. If I deem this project to be a threat against them, I might find it necessary to reconsider my path.”
