And for the sad news of the weekend..

 

Ralph McQuarrie remembered

 

Ralph McQuarrie Passes

 

 

One of the conceptual designers/artists that helped shape a couple of generations... Although most will remember him for his connection to Star Wars.

Keeping it classy, as always.

 

I was surprised I had not heard of him either, but it sounds like he had a very full life.

Never heard of that guy.

 

Star Wars you said? Good riddance.

 

Hardcore, ****ing hardcore man,

Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra

I've often said that, to the degree that there is genius in Star Wars, it's in the art/sound/costume/set design. From what I see of the man's CV, he did impressive work that is worthy of rememberance.

Ultimately, it appears that Lucas had nothing to do with anything good in SW.

И погибе Српски кнез Лазаре,
И његова сва изгибе војска, 
Седамдесет и седам иљада;
Све је свето и честито било
И миломе Богу приступачно.
