Description Edit: Full view, the thumbnail looks like crap.

Some Star Wars parody about Emperor Zurg holding a lightsaber. Inspired by the BLoSC episode where he and Buzz fight with crystallic fusion rods inside the "Big Take-Over Thingy" aka the self-blablala breeder construction core.

Had quite an amount of work with the effects, since Paint Shop Pro doesn't come with Photoshop-level filters. So the glowing/reflection effects are done by hand and stuff. The lightsaber (though it doesn't look like much) took the most time, since I haven't figured out how to make "glowing" vector graphics. So it may be a bit curvy since it's mainly made with airbrush.

Some mistakes here and there, but could be worse.

You can say that really is Buzz's father, just like Darth Vader to Luke.

I forget, do we ever actually see Zurg's face in any of the episodes?

Nah, this is my own creation (old, lopsided fanfic-ish scrawlings from the early 00's, I'm surprised people still somehow find these ). The closest one ever gets to beholding anything of the sort is in the episode "The Crawling Flesh" when Zurg transforms into a blob and his helmet becomes loose, which proves he hides a face of some sort behind there. What he actually looks like, is a matter of personal opinion.

I read English too

the idea of being Buzz's father honestly is clichΓ©, if we remark the similarities with Star Wars; unless producers can have an idea that I do not know to break the clichΓ©

obviously my computer hates me today. So here I go again. Sorry if it's posted twice :S.
Anyways I agree with the above. This is awsome beyond words! The back ground is so cool! Like 50 plus layers I bet hu? And the lightsaber is the best!! Great effect!
Lol gotta love Star Wars parodies . Zurg Vader "Buzz I am your father!!!" This will be added to my favorites .

Thanks for the comment and the fav addition!
Yeah, I'd say the background took the usual 50+ layers though I didn't really count them since I had to merge them down all the time due to my computer memory getting full. I didn't get the bg to look like I had wanted it to be, but maybe better luck next time lol.
LOL yup, can't resist Star Wars parody when it comes to Zurg. He's just too much like Darth Vader.

I agree with all of the above! Dang this is great! I like the background, must have taken about 50 layers. And the light saber just takes the cake. Lol Zurg vader "*heavy breathing* Buzz *Heavy breathing* I am your father *heavy breathing*"
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!"
Gotta love Star Wars parodys . adding to my favorites.

Thanks for your comment and the favorites addition! ^_^ LOL still working with the new shading technique, but I think I'm starting to get a grasp of it (slooo-o-o-owly).
Ya the armor coloring caused a bit trouble, but I'm glad to hear if it wasn't a complete turkey. Some apps like Photoshop come with cool ready-effect filters, but in Paint Shop Pro you need to do stuff like this with airbrush, which is sometimes a pain in the neck.

Yeah photoshop is pretty awsome ^_^. But if you have a keen grasp of the other effect tools and get this quality it doesn't matter anyways lol.

Photoshop would be cool since I have had the impression that inking is easier and cleaner with it. I still can't "ink" with computer, but using a metal tip pen and fluid ink for that. :S Complicated, time-requiring, but works somehow.

Yeah photoshop is pretty good with inking. But sometimes I'll do it with a sharpie marker if I'm lazy lol.
