This is one of the clearest shots of the gantry I have. The gantry in the background of the Bay (as Stinson Lenz mentioned to me) is very clearly a painted flat, slightly smaller in scale.

This is a set up with the Death Star Crane (!!) on a C stand to the left of the camera, and a Floating wall of greeblies on a C stand to the right of the camera - both in the foreground, I assume as a depth of field test (put some junk in the foreground). I don't think this set up made it into the film and I assume its an early test.
There's no gantry yet.
Also, Jon Erland told me he vacformed the walls.
And you can't see it, but there's two Chevy Titan cabs behind that wall of greeblies that look like a "control room" of sorts!

Vac formed makes sense. I bet they did that, and then glued strips of "vent" paper, photocopied, into the grille spaces.

I wonder if the towers are meant to be in the foreground, or it's a foreground miniature cheat for towers that are actually outside the Death Star bay? (Probably not, but it's an odd one!)
