On top of Stone Mountain⛰️
Unfortunately too cloudy to properly see Atlanta’s skyline but still a very nice view of the area. Took the cable car up and walked back down.
@matpolloy@EvanSchultheis i remember watching their youtube video about the care that went into making the suits and they really do look great
i just wish they went for a less glossy look. it works for the stormtroopers but it looks wrong on the clones, especially in kenobi. they would’ve been perfect
@EvanSchultheis@matpolloy the andor clones were the FBFX suits which directly used the original ROTS CGI models, just with some adjusted proportions and larger gaps to fit the actors. the ahsoka suits were the weird animated/movie amalgamations (i really wish they stuck with the FBFX suits…)
@mightydudbolt means it’s always going to look somewhat off as a real suit. there were so many instances of clipping in the renders
i still actually like how they look in andor. lighting in kenobi DOES make them look worse
the legacy effects armor is genuinely awful though. can’t stand it
@mightydudbolt i (personally) can look past the height/weight differences, and i really love the FBFX suits. but i just wish they went with a more matte finish and weathering that would make the armor look more “real”
it also doesn’t help that the cgi model is impossible to wear as-is, which
@andor_anonymous@Toonyloo_pone oh rlly? i could’ve sworn it was ambiguous when it was announced, and the first plans were the buddy cop drafts. regardless, i did also think at the time it would be better given how the shows seemed to handle new characters compared to legacy (Mandalorian vs TBoBF and OWK)
@Toonyloo_pone @andor_anonymous you and op’s thought process makes sense in retrospect, but with the context that the original pitch at the time of announcement was a silly adventure-of-the-week buddy cop show with K2 before gilroy was brought on…
there's an ant in front of my desk that's been repeatedly crawling up the wall, reaching the ceiling, and falling all the way down. over and over again. and it will probably keep going until it's dead.
