Unusual OT pics

I believe this is shot from the sandstorm scene that was cut from Return of the Jedi.

This is a rather large image of the bounty hunters sent by Darth Vader of the Empire Strikes Back along with Darth Vader and the other Imperials an Imperial Officer.

Nice.

Thanks, here are some shots of the Star Destroyer ILM model.

This is what they used before computer generated imagery kids.

Great detail.

Kit bashing never looked so good.

B-Wing shot.

Close up shot of a B-Wing model, showing the pilot figure inside. Pretty interesting how things were done once upon a time.

Shot of the B-Wing's end, showing the actual lights ILM used to achieve a glow effect of the propulsion systems the ships have.

A similar glow effect was created for lightsabers in the original version of A New Hope, only they used cheap sticks wrapped with reflector tape to glow, and plastic overlays were put over the film so an artist could literally paint/airbrush in the color of the lightsabers. Other expensive complicated equipment was used to make the shots also. In The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi, the lightsabers were simply sticks again, and the overlays with airbrushing was used once again. I don't believe reflector tape was used in the last two films. I believe all the lightsaber effects in the newer films are CG, for sure in Episode II and II, but not sure about Episode I.

Forgot to post the image in the above post...

Don't all of you talk at once. I would like this great thread to live on.

Here are some better pics.

Luke, Biggs, and two friends that never made it into the final cut of the film.

George Lucas, Harrison Ford, and our favorite Wookie, Chewbacca!

Director George Lucas with Mark and Harrison.

Original Trilogy Blaster with belt and holster, and a droid caller.

Last one for tonight, it is a photograph of C3PO and R2D2, I thought the caption was interesting.

we had all those a long time ago in a thread which was once classic far far away...

ALL of them? Are you sure? I checked out all of pics of all of the back pages of this thread and I don't remember them, I even saved them all on my computer. (Took a while.) Several images were not present, I think they were on a photobucket account that was emptied before I got to the images. That could explain the re-posted images you claim.

Anyways, I will post some more that I believe are rare. We will have to see what happens.

This image is of Director George Lucas with Mark and Carrie on the Death Star Chasm set.

This one looks pretty familiar, so I am not sure if it hasn't been seen here yet, but I will post it anyways.

Han Solo on the falcon set in the Empire Strikes Back.
