Searching for Hoth Ion Cannon Ref.Pics !

[el loco]

Hi,
i'm looking for some Reference Pics of the ILM Hoth Ion Cannon Model.

I see the Photos in the "Sculpting a Galaxy" Book and in the "Star Wars Chronicles".

Anyone had some others ? Especially some Detail Shots !

Thanks

It's one of the lesser "holy grails".... not a lot of ref out there.

Hve you tried the ART of the Empire strikesback?

Yeah I've tried this same question to little result... Cool model though.

Another one of my faves as it goes, i like anything quirky and rarely seen on screen lol.
I dont think there is much out there at all, all i could say is the ball is maybe around the 8" mark and just detailed with a lot of styrene.
Ill bet there are a slew of kit donors on it, but its impossible to see, the barrel looks to have a lot of what seems to be K&S tubing around it.
I think if you go from the SAG book, and use screencap ref too, youll come up with a nice replica El loco!

Go to youtube.com and search lucasfilm archives (improved).Right at the beginning is a quick shot of the cannon.Bad picture quality but you might get a idea of scale.

Wow is that a 1080p shot? Do you have the whole movie in that resolution?

I have this screen grab.

 

[micdavis]

I believe it is only 720p. BUt I could be wrong. I grab at monitor res which is 1600x1200 but what I really get I dunno. I only remember downloading a 720p version of ESB.
