The Empire
Strikes Back 30th Anniversary Artwork |
The Official Star Wars Site has
announced that every month starting in March, StarWarsShop will release one new
limited edition Acme Archives print showcasing a memorable scene from The
Empire Strikes Back in serial order -- that is, each new scene will be
released in story order as it appeared in the film. What makes this serialized
set unique, however, is that each of the 12 scenes will showcase the talents of
an artist who brings his or her own individual style to the piece, making for a
wonderfully diverse portfolio of artwork inspired by The Empire Strikes
Back.
Each giclée on watercolor paper print will be extremely limited -- just 100
prints per artist -- which is sure to make them highly-desirable once the
edition is sold out. The series launches on March 26. Be sure to read the entire article and see a rough sketch of the first
image that will be available. |
