Ziz said:Idea for the Walker red eye/window issue - instead of erasing the red from the outside or tinting the whole cockpit red on the inside...meet it halfway.
Tint just the window red on the inside. Put some numbers, meters, gauges and such around the edges so that it becomes a red navigation/targeting/HUD type of display. It's still a window, just with this red image/data being projected onto it. If you really want to get picky, make a hint of red light spill on the AT-AT drivers in the wider cockpit shots where you can see them from the front.
ok. heres my reasoning why i will be erasing the red cockpit window from the AT-AT.
Its only in 1 shot and it is only 1 AT-AT that has this colour cockpit. to keep the red cockpit in the lead AT-AT i would have to either add a red display to the inside or some form of red lighting. this means that i have to do work on many shots , recolouring or adding FX that really don't need to be done. Why would i want to give myself more work to do by adding all this when i can just erase 1 red cockpit from 1 shot?
The red window will be going.
