The all-purpose ART thread!
Time

Damn, Duracell, you’re prolific! I also really like your Episode 1 poster sketch. Very Struzan.

Apart from Duracell’s work, this thread has been gutted by Photobucket’s general crappiness. The broken links make me sad. Hopefully Deviantart will be better - I just made an account in order to re-upload what was my original avatar in 2012:
Vader Unmasked
This was right after buying a graphics tablet, and was trying to get a feel for the medium. It’s sort of an alternate universe Vader. I only wish his head had turned out better.

Get Dave Prowse & reshoot the end of RotJ with HIM! Right the original wrong. Shaw yeah fine, better than nothing but Dave earned that reveal big time.

Someone did this already. The problem would be getting the go-ahead to release the footage.

How do you mean?

It’s in a documentary on Netflix: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QbExdNBjOfQ

The guy shot the footage, and the behind the scenes stuff is in the documentary, but for legal reasons he couldn’t release the actual scene.

STAR WARS: EP IV 2004 <strong>REVISITED</strong> ADYWAN *<em>1080p HD VERSION NOW IN PRODUCTION</em>
Time

Here’s the link 😃

Having recently watched ANH Revisited as well as (of course) ESB-R, the look of ANH-R is very different than the Technicolor look of my project. For example, the Death Star walls and exterior surfaces are various shades of blue/green in my project, whereas Adywan has gone with a neutral gray. I wouldn’t suggest changing the look of ANH-R, since ESB-R follows the same look and I think it really works in modernizing the feel of the films, rather than romanticizing them as I have tried to do.

I guess what I’m trying to say is that Ady would have to start from scratch with the color no matter what. Though with all of the gradient and detail fixes in my project (hundreds of them at least), it would probably be worth it to work from that, even with the different look.

Good luck on this most massive endeavor!

I’m sure there will be suggestions aplenty in this thread, so let me just say that your (relatively) few substantial, well considered changes are worth more than many hundreds of small cosmetic alterations. I’m glad that this edit seems focused on those big changes. Don’t sweat the small stuff. 😃

I hope their reveal is handled similarly to ESB. The Republic recon guy is looking through the binoculars and sees a giant foot hit the ground.
Pan out, and it’s an AT-ST.
Then a giant foot hits the ground in front of the AT-ST.
Pan out, and it’s an AT-AT.
A giant claw hand thing hits the ground in front of the AT-AT…

Last Jedi Poster
Hey y’all, 'member The Empire Strikes Back?

But yeah, underwhelmed is a good word for it. My brain automatically comes up with rationalizations like ‘I’m sure the callbacks are merely visual, while the story boldly subverts audience expectations’. Please be right, brain.

Some people actually don’t like cats without having an allergy to them.

I’m among them. At the moment the roommate’s cat has leaped onto the bed, awakening my girlfriend. Now she (the cat, not the girlfriend) is rubbing herself on every corner of the apartment. Earlier tonight she threw up all over the stairs.

So yeah, not a fan.
