The Empire has millions of TIE Fighters... why do they have to all be the same color? The interceptors too?
If anything, you should be changing the ones in ANH to blue, for consistency's sake!The less of the movie that looks like black & white, the better...
yeh but theres constructive critisism and then theres stuff like this:
Though honestly if he's the type who'd seriously decide it'd be a good idea to make TIE fighters in ESB white (the TIEs in SW are white only to resolve technical issues with blue screen photography: the fighters were originally supposed to be blue) then maybe he's not entirely the best sort of person to be helming a project like this. You'd think he would have done the research to prove him wrong.
I have done my research and as your pic shows (which you have now removed)the TIEs are not the colour we see in ESB or ROTJ. I won't bow down to any form of pressure, in fact im a stubborn bugger and would probably do the complete opposite that was i was being told to do ( and that doesn't mean that everyone should start telling me the TIEs have to be grey just so i'll keep them blue. lol). If i was the sort of person that did bow to pressure then i may as well just hand the edit to someone else and i just do the work. That will never happen. :)
ANH is finished and i will never go back to that, so recolouring the TIEs will never happen
I love the muted tones used in ANH. more and more colour began to be used as the movies went on and that became a huge problem with the PT. They are just too colourful and lose the feel of the OT completely. Not everything has to be colourful
here's some shots taken from the GOUT. Just look how many times the colouring changes in this short sequence from shot to shot. They're all over the place. The last 2 of the asteroid chase are the same TIE. its starts grey until the next shot when it turns dark blue (and it has nothing to do with the sparking because the previous shot it is still light blue/ grey right up until the last frame). then we see them bombing the surface. the bombers are light blue and the TIEs are grey, and look much better IMO
