Welcome to Art Roundup, where we pick a ~~comics character~~ Star Wars ship and spotlight its awesomeness with rad fan creations. In honor of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, this spotlight is dedicated to its most popular ship: Finn/Poe a.k.a “Stormpilot” a.k.a “Puffin.”

What better way to start than with this piece by Phil Noto? And sure, it’s not super romantic, but consider: Phil Noto.

Here’s an adorable “prom pose” illustration by Iledra.

Poe Dameron’s jacket is no doubt an-indemand cosplay item. What exactly is it made of? Luckily, Tumblr user Lava-Alley has the answer.

Oscar Isaac sings and plays the guitar to “Star Wars”; it only makes sense that Poe should share his talent. Thanks to Noelle Stevenson for this piece.

[Edited] When trouble strikes, Finn runs, as seen in this Daryl Toh piece.

In response, Poe takes Finn for a fast-paced ride in this piece by Leaf Puppy!

Ugly sweaters are a cultural force that span all universes—at least these, in this piece by Tumblr user Deadpai, are especially cozy.

If someone breaks out the mistletoe for Life Day (Is there mistletoe in the Star Wars universe? Can there be?), it’ll look a lot like Cquaer‘s very adorable piece.

Disney, I need you to contract Reed Black for a BB-8 Has Two Daddies all-ages picture book NOW.
