"In ways both figurative and literal, without Ralph McQuarrie, there would be no Star Wars. George Lucas had confidence in his compelling characters and dramatic stories, but also knew it would take more than his words and descriptions to convince a studio to support such an ambitious project. Lucas reached out to McQuarrie to help visualize the planets, vehicles, and characters he only saw in his head. The artwork this duo created not only helped convince studios to fund Star Wars, but McQuarrie’s style crafted the visual design of the entire galaxy to come."
