I recall a shot of the set without any opticals or foreground matte paintings got published somewhere back in the day. You could easily see the Y-Wing in the foreground was three pieces not really attached and a smooth dome where an R2 unit should be!I’m kind of surprised Lucas didn’t have them SE this shot.
He was busy putting CG rocks in front of R2. Priorities.
Almost ten years later, sure!
