Drawing the battle droid “Skeleton” was just an excuse for me to reunite Rey and Ben in the desert on tatooine. #reyloween #myart

Ben and Rey embracing at sunset in the desert planet of Tatooine. Parts of a destroyed battle droid lies in the sand with rust on it. Drawn in Procreate with acrylic and ink brushes.

porn is not evil.
sex is not evil.
pleasure is not evil.
kink is not evil.

Does anyone here have experience selling special edition books online? I have two FairyLoot books that I'll probably never read, and I'd like to give them a better home. I am located in Europe.
