Description

This is fan art trying to depict the beginning battle of Echo Base on Hoth, in "Star Wars: Empire Strikes Back" This is an entry for an "80's Contests" that peaked my interest. I tried to capture the feel of the 80's, and added a lot of noise for a film grain affect. I really wanted to get away from that obvious 3D look that I often have, and get that great movie feel to it. I had to do a lot of texture work on this with the Snowspeeders and the ATAT Imperial Walkers. Trying some new things, and learning a little bit along the way. I used Poser for model setup, Vue for rendering, and lots of Photoshop. Thanks for looking, let me know what you think. Highly suggest viewing this in full view *Edit: At grafikeer and mikeerson's suggestion I added some jet flares, thanks for the feedback.
