Fantastic preview! Such eye candy.

Sorry about the following rant about colors and "brown grain", I know the colors aren't final but I did not know where else to post it:

I'm relieved to find that the "brown blotchy grain" (the stuff I wondered about earlier regarding the Falcon escaping Mos Eisley in the SW-thread) evident also in some outdoor VFX shots in ESB may just be a coloring "thing".

I took a screenshot to GIMP and used the color balance sliders on the mid tones. I moved away from red towards cyan and away from yellow to blue and it looks a LOT less obtrusive to my eyes. Moving the lever towards yellow made the brown grain VERY prominent and dirty looking.

So maybe it's really just down to some yellow shift in the elements. The brownness of the grain is there inherently but I think it is over-pronounced by the yellow shift and the way it contrasts with the background (sky, snow).

I'm glad to know I can easily tweak those shots further to my preference if I still find the brown grain too in-my-face after the Team has released their final version. I think I'll try the same trick on SW's "Luke driving his speeder"- and "The Falcon flying away from Mos Eisley"-shots etc. when the time comes.

I understand if the Team will not venture very far from yellow towards blue since yellow is probably crucial for the 70s-80s film look and "is Hoth blue?/how blue is Hoth?" is a touchy subject but it is something I'll experiment with later on.

But the question remains: Did they use pantyhose on Hoth?
