Replaced the poor background and reveal some set detail in the shadows.

EDIT: Who loves Violence?

-Angel

I have very little tolerence for violence (and sand for that matter), ROTS's was uneccessary. But I love your mockups, yay for better detail than a real place!

Anyway, regarding the Sarlacc, I admit I was disappointed in the OUT for referring to a "pit" and then showing us exactly that. The SE was in improvement but not much of one, as they didn't\couldn't do much to the original shots. I'm trying to think of what kind of creature might live in that sort of pit with the teeth and all.

Hmm, maybe the teeth-like structure are attached to rings of flesh that move when something's inside of them?

Nice mock-up, but I just don't get why all these people look like they're made of metal inside, Angel. ;) Does burnt flesh look like molten lava? Heh.

Actually...yes!

Well imagine something that can molten a metal door what can do to skin. Again most of the mockups are stylized to show an event with the best visual approach.

Now imagine in the next frame of my mockup all that heat gets away. ;)

 I believe he is mimicing the look of Anakins saber going through the seperatists bodies in ROTS. It wouldn't last for very long on screen.

Yes here is my source.

Now depends where it cuts, how much skin it has etc.

But to be honest, Those decapitations in ROTJ can be done only in specific locations. Like in ROTS a careful placement of burn marks/sparks and glows can enhance the visual interest of the battle.

Now if you consider background replacements more vibrant corrected colors and all other shit here and there, there you have it.

I'm still of the mind that the contact is SO brief that you wouldn't see much at all, like a Samurai sword going through something. Yes, it's ridiculously hot pure energy, but...I dunno. It felt too much like more PT flash whenever they did it.

Understood sir :D

I ll se what i can do in the later mockups to show more burn-marks rather Dismembers >:D Again remember!

Stylized action to get the bigger picture ;)

-Angel

Yep, I dig.

"Stylized action to get the bigger picture " - Vaderios and Michael Bay

Haha. I'm kidding. (well, somewhat) You know I always enjoy the mock-ups, whether I totally agree with them or not. Some of them put a big grin on my face, like adding the windows in Jabba's palace.

You won a signature quote there Ripplin :D

And michael rocks :D

-Angel

Ric Olie? Redundant? NEVER!

Thanks, pally. :) I think I'm going to look up Bay on imdb.com and see what movies I've seen of his, other than the first Transformers. Hmm...well, says he was in Mystery Men. Any recommendations?

If I see something happen twice, I have to point it out twice.  Otherwise you'll think it only happened once.

That means we'd hear/see about it...four times?! :o

First pic: I tried with simple (and doable) technics that axe look sharp rather platic hasbro like. And yes i dont like the idea of vibroblades like the magna guards in ROTS :P

First time i felt into frustration with the lightsaber glows. i mean WTF already here.

I also lowe the horizon to be some sky visible to add some more color there.

Ady...with my blessings fixing these damn glows!

Edit: Im happy because i found a new technic for the glows. And as you can see th results are far better than the previous^ comparison :D

Take a Blu screen to play :D

Note: See the hands? I found them in the green glow :D

I've got scans of some of the original mattes at pretty high res, with the painter's rough work off the canvas still showing, which is quite nice.

Can you share them? :)

One i can say. I used lot of knowledge and Tabasco to get that detail back to reality....

I wish those shots having this sky...!

-Angel

Thats possible! And visually interesting!

Can someone adress me where/what are  Han’s restraints ?

-Angel

Hell yeah!!!!!

Love the visuals, but I think the celebrators should be a bit bigger/zoomed.  Part of me is looking at it like "what the heck am I looking at?  Oh, those tiny guys there!"  Maybe if this was used as part of a pan down from the planet down, but as a static shot, its a little too grand for me.  Might be different in motion since nothing else would be moving, I'm not sure.
