Book Reviews of The Art of Star Wars, Episode III - Revenge of the Sith
Book Review: Some stunning art
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a beautiful collection of concept art, probably the best since McQuarrie himself was involved with the series. Much of the art actually resembles what we see in the film. However, there are some amazing concepts that never made it. The first paintings were of several planets where the Clone Wars were being fought. Some of the planets looked hauntingly stunning. I loved some of the earlier General Grievous concepts - much more than the final version of an asthmatic droid-alien. The text is also informative and goes through the art of the film chronologically, with comments and reactions from George Lucas himself. Especially for the \ cheap price, this is a must-have for any fan of Star Wars art.
