one of the reasons I thought all three original trilogy films were so great because of the production paintings and illustrations by Mr. McQuarrie. The art deco style design similar to rockwell but transposed to a galaxy far far away, as well as the fact that he did the animation for the moon landing for nasa.

I think the prequels should have used more of a Mcquarrie-esque design approach, maybe he should have done something there despite the fact that he is sick now.

I have always been a fan of his work and I love his designs for the 1976 star wars paperback, 1978 splinter of the mind's eye and all of those asimov covers he did are awesome.
