He’s a friend of the site, someone we’ve spoken to on a number of occasions and now he is featured over at StarWars.com as Kristin Baver takes a look at his stunning artwork for the Royal Mail’s series of Star Wars stamps.

Beyond capturing the innocent blank eyes of Ahch-To’s indigenous avian creatures and the craggy face of the First Order’s Supreme Leader Snoke, Tween helped find the balance between the character featured in each stamp and an array of ships, vignettes, and other tiny details in their midst. Look closely, and you may even see where he’s hidden a Jawa.

Recently, Tween sat down with StarWars.com from his studio in Bournemouth, on the south coast of the United Kingdom, to talk about his favorite Tatooine scrappers, the challenges of keeping his work under wraps, and having his stamp collection approved by the Queen.
