The scene in the SE is horrible. It works well in the context of the novelization. I don’t believe for a second that Lucas was going to put a stop motion creature over the actor because there’s so much movement and Han is so close to him that there was no way to make it look anything other than horrible in any era of special effects, but especially terrible in 1977. The stand-in also is in costume and acts enough that he seemed to have had some direction for Lucas.
