The Jedi Knight games had a bunch of great examples of this style. I liked how it was so ubiquitous in the pre-Disney era. Why don't they bring it back?

>redraw the original cover but shittier
wtf is wrong with slavs

>>208088054
wtf is that

>>208088077
the Czech cover

>>208088000
The modern Yidsney Wars approach of using poorly photographed headshots of the cast and applying a cheap photoshop filter is good enough, okay???

>>208088122
I thought jews were fond of tradition

Pure soul.

Remember that one time Han Solo got in a fistfight with an otter?

>>208088172
That looks terrible.

>>208088189
That was a fun book. The idea that all the Corellian worlds were moved to their present system by ancient alien megastructures blew my mind as a kid.

The weird otter people sex castes were kinda strange, though. Weren't there something like five different sexes?

>>208088172
>Luke has to deal with the ghosts of his old masters watching him smash redheads into his late 80s
At what point do you call an exorcist?

>>208088226
I never read that one. Though I do recall killing shittons of those things in Star Wars Galaxies.

Speaking of which here's some promo art in the same style from that game.

>>208088000
Drew Struzan is the artist that has done most of the great painting posters

>>208088172
He used real Serbian people as references

I despise how Star Wars revolves around these specific people and that specific planet every single time
and retards eat that shit up. Every single Star Wars fans must die from bone cancer

>>208088172
Lando is dropping the fucking hors d'oeuvres. Open bar?

>>208088189
>fistfight with an otter
heh, that's cute

>>208088323
Which Star Wars media are your favorite(s), anon?

>>208088348
Battlefront 1. I saw the original trilogy and it was shit. I saw the prequels and they were shit too. This franchise is a joke and is carried hard by nostalgia.

>>208088321
I got this as a special foil card.

This is what they took from you.

>>208088377
>>>/v/ this way babby

>>208088291
Truly the greatest of all time.

>>208088401
>games are not media
I'm not interested in talking about the game, I just want to say that star wars fans are niggers and need to die

>>208088346
>>208088370
Never saw these. Amazing looking.

>>208088377
>>208088417
Good luck with your bone cancer, I guess.

>>208088506
That starfighter is way too small and the perspective seems fucked up. I do like these 'where's waldo' style paintings though.

>>208088539
Not him, but good luck with your bone cancer.

I bet we'll see Disney take a crack at the vong at some point and somehow make it even worse.

This shit is peak soul even the bad ones.

F for bone cancer anon

>>208088580
not him, but the cancer-wishing guy is based af

>>208088848
This one confuses me.

>>208088878
Majestic.

>>208088054
Thats actually funny. Like most Hungarian original poster art.

>>208088961
Dooku called Yoda a slur in this image.

>>208088768
I miss this nigga like you wouldn't believe. I don't care about "muh gary stu", I don't care about his cheap bootleg copy Andor. I just want my old buddy Kyle back on track.

>>208088054
I have literally finished reading this a few weeks ago. This exact cover. It's a Czech cover, early 90s. The translator knew obviously English well, however, again obviously, was unware about much of nuance. It did gave as Žvejkal dor Chewie.

>>208088189
>>208088226
>>208088287
And what of good selonians?

>>208088172
>>208088189
Shalom, Filonijew. Got tired of getting BTFO in /tg/, I take it.

>>208088000
too many elvises and he wasn't even is star wars. They should have one at most.

>>208088117
I wonder if the artist used a picture of Michael Ironside scowling at the camera as a reference for that green guy.

>>208088054
fuck you, someone worked really really hard on this

>>208090416
eat shit esl

>>208088346
this one's neat, but cluttered.
>>208088370
>>208088387
these two are just awful.

>>208088506
>>208088534
>perspective seems fucked up
Couldn't quite tell what was off, but you're correct. It's as if they had a reference, and could only copy it, not refer to it. So all these different references with a straight on perspective end up tweened and look flat.

>>208088226
They only have 2 sexes, most of the females are sterile warriors protecting the few fertile females and the males are basically sex slaves.

>>208088908
love this lil nigga like you wouldn't believe

The EU was pure SOVL

>>208091180
It was star wars peak 1996-2007

>>208088000

>>208091853
Nicolas Cage as Dash Rendar in a 90s shadows of the empire film, we were robbed of EU kino

so many of these paintings made my imagination run wild as a kid, nowadays nothing comes close, as OP said everything is just photoshop garbage.

>>208093542
Can I get a space loan from the banking clan?

>>208088000
I always wondered how they were able to use the original star wars actor's likenesses in all of the book covers. Did they sign some kind of contract when they did the movies that allowed for this, or was it a separate deal? Do they get royalties from the books?

>>208094300
I'm sure an agreement can be made.

>>208090382
We should have protected her smile...

What do you call the art style of all these posters anyway?

>>208095790
To be fair. The guy at the time was considering whether to fuck a Bothan (pic related specifically).

>>208095832
It's just Ralph McQuarren's style.
Though I'm not sure if he also worked on the EU and not just the movie posters.

>>208095832
Drew Struzan knock-off.

>>208089231
God I miss Daala, Talon Karde, Mara Jade Palleaon and the Vong so much.
Why couldn't they have just kept the old EU as it's own continuity?

Can we all agree the comic run of Legacy was a better reboot than anything Disney is capable of?

>>208096049
Legacy was shit. Still better than Disney though.

>>208096049
No. Legacy was fucking atrocious.

>>208096049
You now remember Daala somehow became chief of state in FOTJ.

sometimes i forget why i used to love star wars. good thread.

>>208096101
That Coruscant?

>>208096101
Oof yeah the arcs between the end of the Vong War and the end of the timeline before the jump to Legacy was rough.

I was a bit bummed Jacen went to the dark side, I was hoping they would do something a bit more interesting after his torture

>>208096129
Yeah, it's from when the New Republic managed to liberate Coruscant about 4 years after ROTJ.

>>208096061
Well I liked it

Honestly the coup and the imperial civil war won me over regardless of the rest of the plot. I did end up enjoying it all though, even Cade grew on me

Just came across this earlier today, Naga Sadow in the style of an Orthodox wall painting is kino

>>208096146
My memories of post-Vong was what was left of the next generation joining some bug banging cult or something, and then le evil Jacen which killed off one and ruined another character of my top 5 characters in very dumb and shitty ways. I should've stopped reading right before my boy Anakin...became more powerful than you could possibly imagine

>>208088000
you think they are going to be willing to pay somebody to hold a brush for hours maybe even days in 2025? surprised they were ever willing to

>>208088848
The dude on the left kind of looks like he's based on a photo of young George Lucas

>>208096707
>>208088848
And Chiss Ben Affleck above him

>>208096686
Yeah I just cleanly stopped at the Jacen shit, not sure why. Probably real life stuff at the time. Too bad because Allston is my EU GOAT

>>208090686

Sick gainz Luke.

Luke, did I ever tell you about Bigger Luke?

>>208097401
That's Luke in the process of becoming Bigger Luke.
>>208097429
He even has his own toy line.

>>208097444

Nice trips. Did they just repurpose a WWE wrestler figure for Luke?

>>208097617
That's just lore accurate EU Luke.

>>208088370
>original palpatine
SOVL

>>208088675
comfy
I would drink here

>>208095767
same show that gave chiss pupils

>>208088627
Every time you post this image the Filonijew has a stress induced heart attack.

>>208099187
No wonder he only posted twice ITT.

>>208088627
Dark horse star wars comics were so good
>>208088823
>>208088940
>>208092167

>>208089339
all these Tsuneo Sanda’s paintings are good even though he usually can’t get the faces right
>>208090990
that architecture is great

>>208090569
i have a postcard somewhere with that image on it i think

>>208088172
That point where the spice you snorted off that Twin-tail slut general's ass at your bachelor party unites with the Force.
- and you gotta make it through a WEDDING seeing the world like this.
Days like this minin spit looks good.

>>208088397
Would "tutor, in the ways of the Force"
that little Redhead.

>>208088506
I am using my desktop vape and looking at this is almost as disturbing as looking at this one
>>208088172
But now I can look at it's horror if I only focus on the small bits of it's demented view.
I still cannot let my eyes drift and make contact with "Mara Jade" as the madness starts to rush up to take me.

>>208088719
The really shafted Han in this one.

>>208088760
brr.
These ones kinda make Boch and Goya feel comfy.

>>208089202
I want to hear stories buy like 5 or 6 year olds based on images like these. they may have seen the movies but they would still have no fucking clue. It would be funny as hell.

>>208092577
Wow.
That's a nice palate cleanser for my brain.
Thank you.

>>208088383
Damn. Remember when kids collected trading cards?

>>208090472
Splinter Of The Mind's Eye? I think I got that comic somewhere.

>>208095926
Think of the Bothan's that died for that pussy.

>>208099717
They kissed in that one.
Whoops!

>>208091454
The long awaited Star War/Majora's Mask crossover.

>>208096472
Tales is just phenomenal. Too bad those Bioware hacks didn't keep the antique vibe for their video game. That said, Kotor is stilll leagues above that High Republic gay shit.

>>208099874
I still prefer KOTOR aesthetic over SWTOR, all the designs in that felt like it could’ve been set during the era of the films

>>208099697
And they're widescreen scoped.

I want to go back, so bad

>>208088000
> Now everything is just photoshop garbage
I really like Mandalorian episodes outro art.

>>208095832
>>208096004
>It's just Ralph McQuarren's style.
It's Ralph McQuarrie, and while he was the main concept designer for the original Star Wars Trilogy, most of the art in this thread is more modeled off of Drew Struzan's film poster style.

>>208089096
Kino pre-AOTC saber colors

>>208099958
Who are you quoting, faggot?

>>208088172
You know this was never approved for official release. Lucasfilm thought it was as horrible as we all.

>>208090411
I had some topps cards with similar art

This thread makes me feel happy.

>>208102387
I know what you mean

>>208088054
Looks like a recruitment poster for some UFO cult

>>208102387
It reminds me of Decembers before 2013/2015

>>208102491
kek
>>208102565
springs before 2005 for me

>>208088000
imagine if a Star Wars trilogy based on this artwork had come out in 1990

fuck this timeline

>>208089202
Is Yoda vaping?

>>208089827
>>208091318
>>208091336
Always had a soft spot of ki-adi-mundi as he was the first new prequel era character that was introduced, too bad he didn't do jackshit in the movies

>>208104464
What about the droid attack on the wookiees?

>>208104474
Hey at least he had a couple lines, plo koon didn't get any

>>208088675
Those guys sure look like a welcoming bunch, even wolfman is there!
>>208089492
Love TPM era meth addict looking Yoda puppet
>>208089035
These AOTC ones are good even though it's easily the worst film imo, reminds me of the fun I had with the Jedi Starfighter game

I feel like invading raptors from another galaxy that steal souls to power their "droid" armies was almost too based for the early post ROTJ timeline.
I wish they made more comebacks

>>208100261
I think he was joking.
