vaderios said:Very good ady!
The only thing that bugs me a bit its the third image (when leia is running to falcon)
The light comes from different direction than the previous shot so the falcon should follow the light direction.. Also id like to see some more blue as the sunset comes to explain the blue sublight on the platform.

Im not saying that ady's pic is bad. still i like a wip pic that he has post when the stormies are firing (previous shot of this scene^ that has a part of blue sky)
So i think is an enhance version of the Original matte and its not create any continuity problems with the colors when luke is on the antenna. ( when luke is in the antenna it supposed the sun should be in the same level or below him. see one of my previous mockups)
That is my 2 euros ;)

don't forget the shot you mention was only a WIP when i posted the image. the sky was also a temp one. most of the skies from my original posted screenshots of bespin have now been completely changed to improve continuity. even the shot where they are running around the corner on the balcony has a completely new sky. there is no blue sky in the shot of the stormtroopers that comes before the platform shot of leia running to the falcon. the skies now match.

yes, you are correct
Bingowings said:As always a dramatic improvement.
Removing the roof cage makes all the sense in the world but (switching on rod for your back mode) these buildings still look rather fake:
They might be improved a little by borrowing some detail inspiration from modern Arabic buildings:
the main problem with doing anything to the background buildings is matching the previous shot. its would be very difficult for me to add anything to the buildings because of the movement, so i'm probably going to leave them as they are

What's the issue with flipping the shot back?
flipping the shot would mess with the direction in which they are running

no i haven't got around to that yet and i may not even bother with that.
ImperialFighter said:Adywan, just wanted to re-suggest these specific points above, that may have got missed in a lengthy post I made a while back. I still think they are worth considering if you did miss them. Not a biggie at the end of the day, just a few thoughts on it still.
The removal of the top of the structure was mentioned by a few at the time, and is a welcome improvement for the sake of continuity with the interior ceiling shots. Great to see you did this tweak.
no, i didn't miss it. its just that the whole matte shot is a nightmare to try and explain any sort of continuity with the building as seen from the outside.
one thing i did notice about the SE replacement mate si that, just below Leias window, there is a doorway. now given the scale of leia then that must be one tiny door. if your overweight you'd never fit through it. plus in the previous shot you see a lift going up the building. its so small it must either be for one person or midgets. i may still decide to completely redo the matte but i think the only way around it is to build a physical model of the upper part of the building so i can zoom in close enough and retain the detail and keep Leia as the main focus. And with having so much to build already i may not be able to do it.
Jedi Dark Knight said:I like your night sky Vaderios. Hasn't anyone noticed something?: the blast is interrumpted as if smudged (sp?) by a finger, it's the same in the original shots, but the enhacement makes it look as if someone swiped the finger over the laser, look at it.

Jedi Dark Knight said:You may be right 005, it is shaped as an R2 Unit, but you don't see it, maybe a mistake in compositing?
05 is correct the bolt is behind R2 and you can clearly see R2 heading for the falcon in that scene so i can't see why you think it is a mistake in compositing.
