Chill la Chill posted:Right. I was responding to what a lot of people have been saying which is that the TIE fighter is just a repainted mini. It isn't, but you really can't tell it isn't unless you look at two tiny engine slits on the back (they are vertical instead of horizontal), so it doesn't really matter. Too many people have already repainted their ships to look like the new TIE-FOs and FFG has always been pretty liberal with their conversion policies so I can't see this being enforced unless they crack down hard on acceptable aftermarket conversions. Oh? I haven't even studied the TIEs — when I see “different engines” in relation to Ep7, I just immediately think about the T-70 and that old painting. Time to dig up some -FO photos, I guess. canyoneer posted:McQuarrie concept art seems to be a never-ending well of "new" concepts

parabolic posted:And if you want to imitate the effect, look into tilt-shift photography. …and as an example of what tilt-shift (and time lapse) can give you, watch this: https://vimeo.com/3156959 (not even SW-related). It's all down to how we have come to associate a particular depth-of-field look to miniature/macro photography. The interesting bit is in how you have to reverse the optical effect in order to make miniatures look full-scale.
