Any plans on removing the rear window from Vader's TIE cockpit? It's obvious they used the same set for his cockpit as the regular TIEs. Regular TIE's have a rear window, whereas Vader's TIE model does not. I'm not positive, but I think this may only be an issue right before Vader spins out of control in the trench.


I had a look at this and you cannot see anything through the window so it could easily be explained away as part of the cockpit design so i won't be changing this.


There is once scene where you can see through the window. It's when the Falcon fires and Vader says "What!"

You can clearly see the trench flying by behind hm through the window, though only for a second or so.

It may be as easy as just painting that window in black for that one scene. Here's a very quick and rough attempt by me:
