    A very cool new kid's book called The Adventures of Luke Skywalker comes out tomrrow.
    The awesome thing about it is that it uses Ralph McQuarrie's original concept art for A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi.
    Here's the link to a video about it.

    I might pick this up from the library to just see McQuarrie's artwork!

    A criticism of this book was that the paintings have been chopped down and are not featured in their beautiful entirety, but then again, they are all widely available to view as such on the internet, so everybody wins.

    It sounds a little artificial and robotic to be natural speech, but it's otherwise correct!

    Could anyone advise on the best 'McQuarrie' art book out there please? Something which shows most of his concept art for the movies without being chopped and trimmed down too much. Any help would be appreciated?
