But it is cool seeing people thinking that we have/had the capability to just wantonly produce such things as a square mile+ of Death Star surface from scratch for a shot.
Edit2: Whether Ady would welcome other contributors to create such composite layers for him is, of course, his call.
Okay, shutting up now.
Actually I had an idea about that, what about a cheat? Example: you have the shot of the Tie-fighters, what if the Deathstar is a digital mat painting? I don't see why that wouldn't work.
