Topic: New Background image

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.

Do..or do not, there is no try !

Re: New Background image

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.

Re: New Background image

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.

Re: New Background image

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.

Re: New Background image

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 wink .

Nice pic either way, thanks for sharing.

Re: New Background image

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

Both flaws I can be blamed for tongue
