The Art of the Brothers Hildebrandt (Star Wars)

Two decades ago, the original Star Wars poster was painted by Greg and Tim Hildebrandt. In the high-pressure world of the film business, they had thirty-six hours to finish it--and the result was one of the most famous pieces of movie art ever created.

Over the course of their careers, the Brothers Hildebrandt have portrayed the denizens of Middle Earth, of the Marvel Universe, of OZ. And now, twenty years later, Greg and Tim have returned to that galaxy far, far away, taking with them legions of fans as they portray Luke Skywalker, Leia Organa, Darth Vader, and the rest of the legendary cast.

This volume gathers together, for the first time ever, their amazing Star Wars paintings. And at the same time, it takes us on amazing tour of the Hildebrandt studio, revealing the amazing process of creating masterpieces.

The Star Dwarves Trilogy

The original Yetis were high-minded individuals of impeccable moral character who ruled the galaxy in a benevolent manner. Unfortunately, they elected a Grand Master of truly epic incompetence: Rectum IV. There were grumblings that Rectum had given himself over to the Wild Side of the Stuff. Yeti Knight Spartacus Skyscraper gathered a group of reform-minded Yetis and laid mental siege to Rectum's castle. Among the original Yetis, such mental combat was known to have destroyed whole planets, but in these di= minished days, the battle of the minds produced only a few mild headaches and nosebleeds. Rectum's forces prevailed, and he declared himself Emperor and Lord Protector of the Galaxy. Thus begins the epic saga ofThe Star Dwarves Trilogy. In the irreverent tradition of SPACE BALLS and THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY, author David J. Richardson has written an off-the-wall parody of George Lucas's STAR WARS.
