Primary reason

To go along with re-writing the Martial Arts forms for the Dark Jedi Brotherhood, I wanted to create a visual reference guide to help illustrate each form. This not only helps give members a better idea of what each form looks like in practice, but would also help break up the wall-of-text of information which can be intimidating to newer members or people like me who prefer their books/manuals to have lots of pictures.

Zehsaa is an active member of the art community, so I asked her if she'd be interested in this project. I sent her an initial email with my request/idea, a simple list. She took that list, listened to my feedback/requests, and created something really special and unique. Each form is not only illustrated in a cohesive, unified style, but also ties into star wars by featuring a Twi'lek, a Wookie, and a Togruta, three of the most identifiable aliens in the SW verse. This user-generated content was made specifically for the DB, giving it a whole extra level of meaning and coolness. While it's harder to quantify artwork created over words typed, I believe that this project is worthy of recognition with the Anteian Cross.

You can see the final spread of 11 drawings (scaled as requested) here. You will see them in the Martial Arts Forms Wikipedia as well.

Thanks again Z for taking on this project. I appreciate it, and the Martial Arts Forms article does to!
