Ralph McQuarrie

Before Ralph McQuarrie's famous bounty hunters painting, the concept artist did this less-detailed version

Ralph McQuarrie

Jabba the Hutt

Return of the Jedi

Today we remember the birthday of Ralph McQuarrie, whose concept work led to the character of #BobaFett and eventually this "Return of the Jedi" painting in Jabba's Palace

Ralph passed away in 2012, but there was an Easter egg / homage to this very painting in the third episode of #TheBookOfBobaFett

Brian Matyas

This official "pitch" painting by Lucasfilm concept designer Brian Matyas helped seal the deal with Disney to green-light "#TheMandalorian."

Earlier this month, the artist shared that Dave Filoni needed a "sketch of a small Yoda creature being presented to a group of Mandalorians."

Due to the quick turn-around, Brian used Daz 3D for composition and then his Hot Toys 1/4 scale #BobaFett as a base to paint on top. Doug Chiang was also involved early in the process.

Slave I

#ThisDayInHistory: Ralph McQuarrie would have celebrated his 88th birthday today.

In addition to doing concept art that helped define the look of #BobaFett, one of Ralph's production paintings showcased this look for Cloud City with his ship, Slave I, completed well before "The Empire Strikes Back" went into production. He passed away in 2012. #RIP

Ralph McQuarrie

Here's an except from "#StarWars Art: Ralph McQuarrie" of early sketches and a draft before the final, famous bounty hunter painting with #BobaFett front and center.

You can get the hardcover set on Amazon: http://amzn.to/2cnGoEU

Acme Archives also sells an official print of this called "Scourge of the Galaxy."

We like to think #Dengar was behind the camera or painted the portrait since he's omitted. Perhaps he was added late in the game, too.

Sarlacc

If the #ExpandedUniverse is out, we could still see #BobaFett escape the Sarlacc. The official storyline just won't mirror the variety of versions already: #Jawas, #Dengar, and/or being "simply indigestible." If the official word on the street is that the jetpack-clad bounty hunter is still officially down in the pit after this #ReturnOfTheJedi moment -- pictured here in a painting by Dave Dorman -- it could also mean that 1) he's not necessarily dead and 2) he could escape in one of the new Disney/Lucasfilm films. What do you think?

For more about George Lucas' opinion on whether or not Boba Fett is alive or dead, see how it's waivered over the years but ends up now in the "alive" column:
