The Anchorage Art Museum had an awesome Star Wars display up for the last few months. Even if I weren't a Star Wars fan I would have enjoyed the show. Watching video, hearing what the different artist and designers used for inspiration was so interesting.
I had never considered all the different aspects that were involved in the making of the movies. The clothing designers, the artists that work with magnifying glasses painting to make the tiny model ships look dirty, the artists that sketch out creatures from other planets. The artists that create different worlds! You definitely felt you were in the presence of incredibly talented people.
They showed a clip of the artists walking through a hardware store. They picked up every little piece turning it, trying to see if it would make a perfect ship cargo bay or maybe a believable adornment on a princess' gown. They used Leggs eggs on the ships engines!!! (those Legg's eggs have so many uses)
Steve is a huge Star Wars fan. When I say huge I really mean HUGE! Here he is battling with Darth in the museum elevator. I adore my honey but I got to be honest, my money is on Darth Vader. I've seen Steve's Jedi skills.
