Just read this article titled
How the Original Star Wars Trilogy Fooled Everyone With Matte Paintings
I had no idea that many things from the OT were matte paintings. Makes sense I suppose, how else were you going to get that level of detail back then?
Where is this artistry today? Disney has all the fucking money in the world and for all that, can't hire a painter anymore. Not a lot from the ST stands out to me visually. New ship/character/world designs are seriously lacking.
Quoted the images below to save some space. What are some of your favourite movie matte paintings?
