Finally got some financial breathing room to donate a few bob towards the recovery, not much but every little helps eh? Keep up the good work Jambe.

Thanks Macianachu. Some GREAT photos in there! Thanks so much for your donation too!

Hey slugs, I can only assume Kersh is out of shot and briefing the extras.

I like that trash compactor shot! That's going in!

Ok it's Jedi, not Star Wars but at the Star Wars celebration the deleted scene of Luke constructing his lightsabre was shown:

Yep, that news is spreading like wildfire. ;)

Jambe,

I've really enjoyed watching your documentaries. I am glad you were able to recover a significant portion of your work. I do plan to send in a donation to offset the costs of the recovery.

Do you have any estimated time until when we may see the final parts of your STAR WARS BEGINS posted on YouTube?

Thanks!

Well I think the project will be finished by the end of the year.

Great news. Maybe by then, I'll be able to help out monetarily... :p

Whoa!!

Not just Ponda Baba's arm, but his HEAD and what looks like maybe part of his torso?  I've never seen this still.

This corresponds more to the way things went down in the novel, but certainly not what was shown on-screen.  That's awesome, and I assume that you're making note of it for the doc, Jambe?

I was sequestered in Korea and the news of the Blu-ray set took a while to get to me. But afterwards I started thinking about how wonderful it would be to have this project, and have it complete, before the next wave of anticipated changes.

Weird pondering I'm sure, but with Star Wars it's always chasing a moving target. And I am glad that Jambe is optimistic that he can bring it to a close well before it's overshadowed by the Next Big Release.

Congratulations, sir.

I don't know if you have seen this facebook groups but it has a lot of interesting photos

Are you going to update your blog? I was worried until I found your thread here.

Great work! Saw both BE and RTJ on YouTube and am downloading the DVD.

How many more parts to STAR WARS BEGINS?

SKot, good find. That appears to be his jacket. Yes, I have already made reference to this using a photo from the Sculpting DVD.

Thanks BMadden. I'm looking forward to it's release too!

Thanks Ady, great stuff! I love photos of the saga, particularly the rare ones!

I will update my blog Bravo Zulu. Sorry to have worried you. Glad you like the docos.  There are no more parts to Star Wars Begins as I will be uploading the final versions eventually.

Thanks

JD

That picture is pretty interesting. I had no idea they had thought of beheading Baba at one point.

What's the Sculpting DVD?

Sculpting the Galaxy.

Been looking through all of the photos of that FB group. I have never seen the one of R2 and 3P0 outside the cave. Does anyone know when this was published??

JD

I just looked up that DVD/book and yowza, I guess that's one I'll never see, especially if the only way to see it is by buying the deluxe book... :(

I purchased the sculpting the galaxy book but i never got a DVD with mine :(

Did you buy the DVD-less budget version? (which is still way too much for me anytime soon)

Further info here

and

Never buy from the source, though. :p I've seen it for as "little" as $175 elsewhere.

Great review here, but no mention of the dvd??

I got it from Forbidden Planet here in the UK for £30 new without the DVD. I'd love to know exactly what is on the DVD.
