Next to George Lucas, Ralph McQuarrie (1929-2012) is the man most responsible for the look and feel of the Star Wars universe. I have scoured the internet (and boy have I scoured) to bring you high-resolution un-cropped versions of the Ralph McQuarrie paintings that he did for the Star Wars movies. Sadly, Ralph McQuarrie is no longer around to produce fabulous new paintings, but you'd be amazed at how many of his "unused" sketches and concepts have popped up in the Clone Wars TV series and the newer Star Wars movies.
