For the Artstation ILM challenge. Didn’t make it to the vehicle design stage (damn), but was a lot of fun making scenes, which is not really my forte.

Yeah, that novelization expanded on the Death Star II battle in ways I wouldn’t have minded as an addition to some Special Edition(C) or another, more’s the pity. I’ve also read some conjecture about Mon Cal ships being optimized for unloading from either flank, as opposed to Imperial ‘dagger’ designs’ frontal arcs-just not usually at what amounts to spitting distance. Come to think of it, a substantial chunk of Endor’s chaos might’ve stemmed from (a) Rebel heavies glomming onto Impstars with tractor beams and (b) big ships (i.e. not corvettes or Nebulon-Bs) winding up too close for safe main-gun use,… Read more »

That is gorgeous, I sure would have voted for you. That Imperial task force image I commissioned is my permanent desktop and cell phone wallpaper.

Another excellent project!
