"It took me 76 hours and 13 minutes to make this picture. It's of a Jedi Knight in an Imperial Starship. I was 6 years old when I did this picture. Notice the shadow under the neck and the fist holding the lightsaber handle, inside of the cloak. That was still not the hardest part. The head was the hardest part. I used all of my pencils. I have different artist pencils, for an example, 6B." - Max

At the jewelry store ...
Got to spend time with Pop at his shop. Chose two stones to bring home. A garnet and an aquamarine. Budding jeweler?
Maxi Cards
This is the beginning of a series of cards Max is designing. He says there will be at least 25, and each card will have a new character that he has created and named. These first two are Jupiter Junebug and Iceman. Also note his rather cool cursive signature.
New Jedi
"A new picture of a Jedi Knight. And on the next picture it will show the back of him. I did a line so I knew where the mouth and nose and eyes went. And first I did my picture in pencil and then I copied it after in pen. Notice the reflections in the boots. Notice the lines in the clothing. And notice inside the arm sleeves." - Max

Storm Trooper
"Notice the shadow and how I shaded and erased the shading. How I did it is I traced the outline, but just the outline. All of the inner details I did on my own. I got inspired by another picture. I liked this process. PS. Notice the laser pointing at you." - Max
