I would love to make Grievous the new Maul... Those eyes would have to change, however.

 Though i love the idea of maul returnin i really dont like the idea that its grievous. To me Grievous should be totally different character. Just darker, much darker.

In the first animated Clone Wars series he was quite creepy and from what I read of him preSith he was meant to induce fear. It's a shame they made him into a moustache-twirling(-leave-Batman&Robin-tied-in-a-loose-trap-whilst-I-make-a-quick-exit-stage-left) villain :(

That's awesome Venal - maybe you could add just a tiny bit of conrast to the planet and see how that looks like, but it's looking quite special already I suppose :)

Well I've actually put together my video for that GIF anamatic mock-up I did that was inspired by Angel's work - with sound :D

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-5d3PL1N6w

It can now be added to the lisy hopefully - I know that my GIFs would have been a bit overkill to be on that list :)

- Oh and SSWR we alrady had a nice little talk about your video on YT - I must say great job again.

HOLY F*CK!

The scene that vader taking his time and walks and behind him everything collapsing is UBER EPIC!

 

Now let me buy you a couple of aspirins for the headache doing that frame by frame.

-Angel

Hehe, thanks Angel and also further thanks for your perpetually amazing mock-ups. Oh and I literally had to have some pills today because I've come down with a mega cold :'(

And thanks guys. Yes, although not final quality I hoped it would illustrate what should be done in that scene and it looks like it should give Ady something to look at and work from. :D

SSWR - Sweet Fett video, you've converted me to NoFettInROTJ.

Right, I've decided to abandon the whole Emperor laughing (with the battle outside the window) animation and Vader throwing his saber at Luke. When I put all the sounds together it's just all a bit bad so I'm not gonna upload a video anytime soon - instead I've had to settle for 2 seperate GIF images of my anamatics that you can use on the list to illustrate Angel's superb mock-up. Here they are (NOTE: On the second GIF there's a continuity error that's not really an error, I just cut Luke's 'I feel the good in you...' part) -

:O

Far superior to any of my rough jobs. Excellent job.

You want doable? HUH?

Thats for SWWR because i have promised to him that i will fix it someday. (thanksgiving day today!)

-Angel

 ...would it be possible have the sun start to come up at the end of this scene? Just a thought...  :P

Now that would be really symbolic - especially for Vader. It's almost as if the light is calling out to him - to redeem himself of his sins....and perpetual whining. :)

Awesome idea and it should be strongly considered. I'm sure it will be doable.

As for the holotable adding a bit of under seat lighting does put a bit more life into the set:

Excellent - maybe add two more in the middle area - or would that be overkill?

And OMG! Keith Floyd is dead?! *Checks Google* OMG! R.I.P.

Yeah! Hotrod is still alive :D

 

Great stuff there DC. Do whatever you want. Im dont want anything :)

 

-Vaderois, Angel's French cousin.

Thanks Angel. Hopefully my final anamatic of your mock-ups for that little scene will make it to the list.

I'm just waiting for the final version!  The first draft was impressive enough!

Thanks, should be done by the weekend hopefully :)

So what's new on your front?

- Btw that shot of Han and the trooper behind him always bugged me too.

Good job with making the room darker. 

Bingowings said:

Sweet, which one?

The daytime or the nightime Angel/Bingo hybrid one (for something not all my own work that one actually took me much longer to do)?

Like you are finding out, matching another persons ideas can be difficult.

The daytime one that's wide and where Vader's shuttle is taking off - it looks beautiful, in fact they both do :)

The daytime one was more apt for a background.

And yes, it can be difficult. For example the little video I'm making won't be up to the same standard of Angel's mock-up's, but I'm glad they're acting as anamatics of some sort :D

Bingowings said:

Boing, Fizz, Boing, Fizz, Boing, Fizz!

Great stuff.

Thanks my man, the hard part is gonna be trying to make the panel collapse, but I have Angel's reference picture to help me out :)

I'm gonna end the video with Vader walking down the staircase - and I'm doing something very interesting in the place where the Emperor is when he gets up and starts laughing at the fallen Luke (and says 'Good. Goooood' - just as Vader ignites his saber). In the end I'm gonna also insert some distant space battle sounds and see how well everything plays out from there. :D

Anyway, you're the one who did the waterfall on Endor mock-up right? Well it's my desktop background right now :)

DarthBo said:

I still don't understand why you want to replace his hair?!

When we get older we lose hair, end of story.

Oh well at least I tried - despite Anakin's relatively young age (compared to Obi-Wan) and the aging process in a different galaxy, I suppose I must accept defeat.

- Another GIF image of the video I'm making atm (work in progress continuation of the one I posted above - based on Vaderios' brilliant mock-up). It should be done by the weekend :)

Sorry again to those who don't want Sebastian Shaw with slightly thicker (and longer) hair - but I had to post this updated version that is better than my last one -

And Angel, would you like me to re-create that bit of the fight fully - with the control panel falling down and Vader throwing his saber at Luke? And I take it you did check out the Youtube video I put up? It's basically gonna be more of your mock-ups in full motion :) So should I do that?

vaderios said:

Fancy that. All i did is a simple desaturation. tsk tsk

 

-Angel

 

Nice signature btw.

Hahaha, either you're being too modest or just plain sarcastic :) I hope this makes it to the Revisited edition.

Oh and I just wanted to quickly say that I didn't mean your signature btw, just what you had by your name, lol.

It's a shame about Patrick Swayze's passing yesterday (technically on Monday, I suppose). R.I.P.

vaderios said:

This is for you Angel (Vaderios) -

Holy fuck! it works! Thanks for that :D

 

-Vaderois, Angel's French cousin.

You're welcome Angel :)

Nice signature btw. Oh and I agree with Josh about the Rancor looking like the one in TFU game - not that it's a bad thing, it's way better than the one that was originally there in the film. The one in the TFU expansion pack looks like your mock-up, and it makes sense because yours is the more realistic looking one :D

fishmanlee said:

i wonder who this vaderois guy is....

He's Angel's French cousin.

Nice proof of concept (why is whenever I see animated GIFs Yakety Sax starts playing in my head?).

Oops. My mistake. It has been rectified now.

Thanks - lol :)

This is for you Angel (Vaderios) -

The actual thing I did only amounts to about a second long. Let me know if you want me to continue with the clip by actually adding the panel collapsing onto the floor.

GIF IMAGE -

Sky, that logo is awesome. Everytime I see it on my 52'' HDTV or on my laptop, it makes me smile :)

One time I put the speakers up on a high volume and after the logo faded away I could hear my neighbours chanting The Imperial March in sing-song voices :D

Great Job - in fact they came over and watched the DVD and said that the logo was amazing and was worthy of Ady's edit. I agree.

- Btw, for TESB:R, a similar logo with the same fonts and stuff could be used, but replace the Death Star with something from TESB, like Vader's Executor ship. Or you could plan a new one with Ady like you said.

I wish we could have a bit more ground troop action like this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jIWtNYp-IXQ

Yeah the dude who made that is awesome - his Battle of Endor (space battle) is also amazing, as is his other work.

 

 need to get a hold of this guy and see if he can lend us a hand in jedi revisited.

He is already working with me on ESB:R :)

 

Awesome! I already knew you commented on his videos, but this confirms everything :)

Fair enough but of all the animals in all the galaxy it seemed a bit convenient that Jabba collected a head Lucas had already made for the previous film.

Lets insert a Gungan head, lol :D

Better still (apparently this git is from Endor how many inhabited worlds are there in the Star Wars universe....9?):

Hahaha, lol :D

And OMG, I actually can't believe how fake that looks....oh wait....I can. *Smiles grimly*

^ And Angel - can't wait for the storyboard stuff :) And well done with the Rancor - scared the f*ck outta me! :D

Bingowings said:

They fit the look of the robes but it doesn't make sense. The Trade Federation were just a means to an end and when that end was achieved Vader killed their leaders and I assume Palpatine took charge of their assets.

If the Neimodians were to be on any side it would possibly be with the Rebels (if they would have them).

If they served the Emperor in any capacity it would be in chains rather than robes of state.

Nice mockup though.

I wholeheartedly agree with Bingowings on this.

But that is an awesome mock-up :)
