Star Wars Artist's Battlestar Galactica

Ralph McQuarrie's take on BSG

Dec 3rd 2008 By Sam Ashurst

Star Wars concept artist Ralph McQuarrie's original Battlestar Galactica artwork has gone online and you can see it by hitting the gallery to your right.

The painted pictures are a mix of stuff that made it into the show - Colonial Vipers, blokes with beards sitting around a bar - and some stuff that didn't (we love the black Cylons). But all of it's gorgeous.

Hit the gallery to your right to pick your favourite pics / spot the shots that appear to be traces from old Star Wars art McQuarrie must have had lying around the house.

  I don't mind everybody copying these, but at least link the source: http://www.galactica.tv/battlestar-galactica-1978---news/ralph-mcquarrie-concept-paintings.html (starwars.com and ralphmcquarrie.com both were decent enough to link me, since I'm the only one that has a complete set of these) Some more great Battlestar Galactica concept art from Ralph McQuarrie: http://www.galactica.tv/battlestar-galactica-1978---news/ralph-mcquarrie-concept-sketches.html Best regards, Marcel Damen GALACTICA.TV
