This is going to make me sound like such a mom, but what about Scar from The Lion King? Or how about all those Starks?

And Professor X who was killed by Jean Grey. Oh, and Yoda.

Ok, I think I’m done. Godspeed!

This is awesome, Danielle...

I did a Mufasa movie death illustration which I was never really happy with, but Scar is a really interesting one.

I also thought about a specific Game Of Thrones series at one point. Might come back to that one.

Professor X.is a great shout, will definitely give that one more consideration. And a couple of folks mentioned Yoda, I think that's a good one.

Throw more suggestions this way as you have them!

What about X is for xenomorph, flung into space (from the first Alien movie?)

Ah love this idea! That’s definitely got potential!

Separate to the A-Z, I just did a random advent calendar of daily reveals a few years ago. Some are a little rushed, but I treat them as drafts these days.

One was of Bishop, the android in Aliens, getting speared by the xenomorph’s tail!

Hmmm - seems I can't attach a pic as a comment. I'll post it as a note and tag you in!

I'll have to have a think about this. There must be loads from horror films...

Any ideas at all are appreciated! 👍🏻

It would make a great book! The Museum of the Moving Image sells a lot of children’s books for adults, this is reminiscent of those!

I love these! My favorites are the ones with more texture (like Quint + Noah). I'd actually buy a print of the Quint one!

Ah that’s awesome, that’s the type of feedback I was looking for, thank you so much!

I feel like that too - some of these are better than others, some feel a bit rushed and miss the mark but there’s a couple that I think are really strong.

I’d love to get a little movie-loving, art/illustration, writing group involved who can help me get this up to a good standard with regular feedback. Then maybe one day I can whip this into a book or an e-book or something.

I’ll let you know if I ever decide to offer prints!

Well hopefully I can piece it all together one day soon. Might have a hit on my hands! 😂

I think they're great and I even recognised a few (I am not a massive film buff, like the rest of my family, who would probably recognkse them all). Good luck finishing them.
