I think McQuarrie's art is the unsung gem of Star Wars. Without his brilliant imagination, who knows how different the look of the saga would've been. I only wish I could track down the rest of the books these days. I cherish my "Art of The Empire Strikes Back" book. Brought with me to jury duty once. I remember the day very vividly since a friend of mine dropped a bomb on me that day telling me he got his girlfriend pregnant. Made me totally forget that I was intent on watching ESB that night.
