I think this is the part that's being referred to...

...right?

How do we know that it isn't just robotic tendons.

Actually, I think he is talking about his fleshy arm, which shows a little right below the green area you marked.  It is between the gold forearm and the actual shoulder, under the 3 metal "tendons".

Actually its the top of 3P0's golden arm we see there, as Angel noted earlier. Anthony Daniels wore along sleeved  black body suit so you wouldn't see any flesh under his armpit

Just had a closer look and it is definitely the top of 3po's golden arm

I knew it. He has slinky robot tendons. That is a really well made costume. It does seem very robotic, and it holds up to this day.

So what, you wouldn't even notice unless you already knew about it and paused the movie at that exact moment.

I think this is getting a bit *too* nitpickish.

Fixing continuity errors and bad FX is one thing, but now you're in Lucas territory.

Well that's one way to look at it LG.

Another is that Adywan has previously incorporated many very subtle fixes in his work already.  While not everything is a biggie, these little details can help to really polish the look of everything overall, if achievable, I reckon.  And as this is something that I do notice during the shot, I'm hoping it's one that can be sorted.

....and Monroville for the win in this instance!  He correctly saw that I was meaning the small section of 'fleshy skin' that is seen just below the green area that Davnes700 highlighted on the C3PO shot.  :)

You really need to see this shot in motion, but it definately seems as if the black 'body stocking' got ripped at this point between the gold parts of the costume.

 

Seraphyn, I didn't realise you were referring to something you may be doing for Adywan, but he does indeed want to keep a few things under wraps for now.  So best to check with him before you mention/show anything to do with what you are involved with.  Interesting....

Yes I know, and I *am* glad with Ady's fixing of continuity errors so far. But I don't think this is all that noticeable.

I mean come on, we've spent almost an entire page posting magnified screenshots and  repeating GIFs of the scene just to point out what this supposed error is. Who's going to do that in the middle of watching a Star Wars film?!

Well.. Un noticeable things are for the fans.. and for the sharp eyers so they cant spot the mistake that was there ;)

We like the process :D

Fans or crack addicts of course :P

I am not a fan ;)

I bet that gif could win some kind of weirdness award.

Approch to Cloud City: The shot really looks beautiful and almost perfect.

1. A little shadowing could cover a "too white"-"it's CG!"-effect.

2. The reason for my post however is not effect but content.

What looks "wrong" IMO is the fact that the two cloud-cars actually have orders to guard the Falcon. If you guard a suspect you don't want to have him in your back and walk in front or beside him. If you guard a suspect you walk behind the guarded suspect in its blind spot. As I recall the cloud-cars already have fired a warning shot so they are guarding an unfriendly vessel.

Adywan's scene actually looks like a parade formation, like they are protecting a Falcon they are trusting because one of the cloud-cars turns its back on the Falcon (perhaps leading it to Cloud City). It looks "wrong" to me because it seems like the Falcon is totally controlling the situation. I mean: One shot of the Falcon could blast the leading cloud-car out of the beautiful sky and one turn to the right would crash the second cloud-car to the ground.
In military terms - and perhaps in terms of directing - the Falcon is totally dominating the scene, the cloud-cars could be destroyed easily by the Falcon. It should be a 50:50-situation at least.

Meh, the cloud car pilots don't make enough money to bother too much with military precision. Haha.

Point taken, though. ;)

ImperialFighter said:

So what if it took up a few posts?  You should have seen some of the things that took up pages before....  ;)

Yeah, when Ady jokingly said he was going to axe Lando, that took up several pages and spawned an entire thread.

I *have* actually trudged through all 660 pages you know, well I've only really read Adywan's posts :D

Or to be more precise:

The purpose of the cloud-cars (or twin-pod-cars ... don't know?) is to protect Cloud City isn't it? If they turn their back on an approaching, unknown vessel they are not serving their purpose, mission or "job" as they could be blown out of the sky and Cloud City could be attacked.

Their mission: Protect Cloud City, identify unknown vessels, guard the approach of unknown vessels, escort unknown vessels to their landing platforms. They have no reason to trust unknown vessels. So they should fly at each side of the Falcon or behind the Falcon if there are only two of them. If there are three of them one can fly in front of the Falcon while the other two are flying beside or behind the Falcon.

The scene can be "repaired" if a third cloud car is added guarding the Falcon from behind. As I recall there will be no continuity error if there are three of them. It would also add to Leia's sceptical expression when they arrive at the platform.

Heh... I did that too... Oh and I did check out Angel's mock ups and OO5's comparison shots. =D

Silver bullets are standard issue X-wing leg flairs. =D On ejector strap belts have a series of mini-flairs as well. =D

Ady... Awesomeness... XD  I have something to post up as well (which explains my MIA for the last few days):

This is an early picture and this is also the toughest part of our costuming creation on our end... This jacket is insane to make. Will post a complete pic soon.

i can't see a problem with that scene at all. the pod cars approach the Falcon and fire a warning shot because they didn't have clearance. they were placed either side of the falcon at this point. then they say that they have permission to land on platform 327 and move in front of the falcon.this becomes and escort formation, leading the Falcon to the platform. when you have a police escort(none criminal)  the car is always in front not surrounding the vehicle. the cars are just leading the falcon to its destination. They have been granted permission to land so there is no need for a hostile flying formation.

well, i'm about to pack up the pc for a couple of weeks ready for the workmen to come tomorrow. Can you hear me sobbing? lol. but i'll see if i can nick the wifes laptop and get a small internet fix. ;)

Yes, let us know what's happening periodically if you want. Feel free to rant about their ineptitude...or rejoice in their eptitude, hopefully! ;)

Yes, Emperor Lucas must not find your workstation :P

hm, I might test that procedure with the local authorities. ;-)
