Ralph McQuarrie, Star Wars Concept Artist: Tribute to a Master (Part 2)

Ralph McQuarrie, concept artist of the original Star Wars trilogy, was essential in bringing the characters, ships, and locales of a galaxy far, far away to life. In part two of this special tribute, Star Wars designer Doug Chiang, concept artist and illustrator Marc Gabbana, and Fan Relations Advisor Steve Sansweet weigh in on the daunting task of following in Ralph’s legendary footsteps and his work’s lasting impact on the Star Wars universe. This is part of the Ralph McQuarrie tribute Dreams and Visions Press produced for Star Wars Celebration VI in 2012, drawing from interviews conducted for a feature length documentary on Ralph McQuarrie that is currently in production.
