CONCEPT ART LENDS TO THE VISUAL DEPICTION OF IDEAS THAT GIVE HOPE TO A GREAT FILM.
There were more desert screen time so that naturally lightened the tone up a bit, also more daytime screen time helped out as well. Do not let that fool you, if you enjoy darker toned art there is plenty in the book.
Once again the Lucasfilm art team did a fantastic job and as per usual some of the art that did not make the final cut left me scratching my head as to why it was left out. I am not in on those decisions, I am just a Star Wars and art fan.
This book makes you really see how the show and episodes were crafted from the art, more so that the previous books discussed here. If there is one thing I would change is I would have made the book more pages, but that is the movie and art fan in me.
The art in all of The Art of Star Wars books is at times breath taking and at times thought provoking. This is part of the joy looking through them and reading the snippets on the art. Every time (which is often) I look through one of the books I notice something new or that I missed before.
Up next The Art of The Force Awakens.
