The lighting on that background looks amazing, by the way. It fooled me into thinking it was directly from the film first time out.

I'll give you a clue: the picture it was based it off of can be found on wookieepedia

yeah, maybe slight differences, but nothing that the eye easily pics up on right away.
I thought the paint on the fighters was pretty accurate.
The very left X-Wing has really scuffed up pain, and a darker bump mark same as the cube.
Both planets weather patterns are different than the cube.
Positioning itself is the best, i had to grab my cube right away just to be sure.

You can also notice the paint jobs aren't the same on the X-Wings too

Both flaws I can be blamed for

Looking at the picture, it's actually really clear they're not the same image, as the gas giant is much more rounded off in our render .

Nice pic either way, thanks for sharing.

Indeed, it is a complete recreation using FS Assets. Glad you like it

I took a pic of the cube.. not the best pic, and the cube is 12 years old.
But here it is.. check it yourself.

I was in the chat room while Red showed off different incarnations of this image, so it's not the same one.

If it's accurate enough to the "real" Yavin scene to fool you, though, I have to say that's a great job by RedMonkey.

Well after inspecting the puzzle cube picture for accuracy.
It is the same picture.. unless this was made in game.. which is what i thought.
Would like to know.

Whoever made it, hats off to you.. this is really nice.
I have the puzzle cube that came out in 96'.
The ones from Taco Bell, for the rerelease of the original trilogy.. It has the very same picture on it.
Checking it for accuracy.

Taco Bell released a bunch of toys for their rerelease..I think there was 6 of them, i have 5.
Displayed around my big screens tv stand.

Thanks again.
