Raise your hand if you heard the astro-jazz song in your head when the cantina band picture scrolled by. o/

If you see his earlier work from jodorowsky's dune art book, you can see the influences in his Star Wars work.

#6 Do you think the Stormtroopers that were located in each of those towers sometimes waved to each other?

I'll never forgive Lucas for putting a CG musical number into a SW movie

These are fucking awesome.

Can you imagine this shit? McQuarrie didn't get to read the scripts and had hardly any convo with Lucas, yet this is all from his mind

Those guys were god in the days. No photoshop and shit, only pure paint, pencils and rulers. No undos unless you really want to start over.

Yeah, one of the most best scenes in scifi imo is that short clip from Alien where Nostromo is in front of that planet in the beginning. 1/

Absolutely beautiful scene! 2/2

Acrylic & oils can be undone (painted over). Ink, pastels, & watercolor, not so much. Still, lots of sketching to plan stuff out first.

And photoshop lets those guys achieve much, much more with the same skills. It's a tool, like any other.

9 years ago | Likes 21 Dislikes 0

A tool that is relied upon too heavily IMO

9 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

I love the art but I just can't justify that cost =/

He is more responsible for the amazing parts of Star Wars than Lucas. He would create these beautiful designs that fueled Lucas' writing.1/2

Lucas' skill (luck?) was surrounding himself with geniuses. Almost every iconic aspect of SW was created by somone other than him. 2/2

Pretty much. If you look around, you can find original versions of the script...it's not good.

The proof is the prequels - Lucas had free reign with no one opposing his 'bad' ideas. Everyone forgets Empire/Jedi weren't directd by him.

Really wish we'd gotten Wookies instead of Ewoks.

9 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

Didn't Lucas actually say he didn't want Teddy bear-like Ewoks? Yet, the design team made them that way?

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Exactly!
