Artists Brandon and Emma Peat are expecting their first child this month, and in preparation for their baby boy’s arrival, the couple decided to decorate the baby’s room with an illustrated alphabet of characters from the Star Wars universe that they created.
From now until Thursday, December 9th at 11:59 PM EST, if can receive all of the alphabet prints in one book collection, when you make a donation of $15 or more to little Tycho’s college fund.
The characters are mainly from the original Star Wars trilogy (no prequel characters), and a few from the expanded universe.
See the full alphabet here at right (click for larger, full view).
Here’s what Brandon Peat said about the project:
I sketched the basis for each character in pencil, which Emma then rendered and colored in Illustrator – it was very much a collaborative process. The project was her idea, even…man I love having a nerdy wife.
The minute I saw these prints, I knew I just had to have the special limited-edition alphabet book, so I sent a donation for one for me, and then one to give as a gift. It’s just too adorable to pass up, so I suggest you hurry up and make your donation right away before the deadline to get yours — and, it’s for a great cause.

this would have twice as cool without the “extended universe” b.s. characters
