Star Wars Exibit

I went to the Star Wars exibit in Portland, OR today. I was cool to see some of the prop, models they used to make the movie. I took a lot of pictures, there are lots of double and triples of the same shot but thats the way I always shot stuff like that, better odds of a good picture. I uploaded all of them, I havent done any touch up, just quick resize and rotation. Some are dark but thats because I couldnt get close enought for the flash to do much and the displays were VERY dark.

Enjoy

PS I think there are close to 500 and they still are uploading so there will more later then there are now.

Wow, that's really cool, I really like all of the models. The AT-TE model is cool.

The pictures just do them justice either. The Falcon is just huge, I would say close to 6ft long. The Rebel Blockade Runner was huge too maybe 5-6ft long and the Star Destroyer they mention is maybe 3-4ft long. I really wanted to jump in the Landspeeder but with 15-20 workers in the area I thought better of it.

holy crap MF thats awesome! I hope I can go to one of these exhibits some day. thanks for sharing the pics!

They are all finally up but it looks like it uploaded two copies of all of them.

WOW, too many to look through Falcon and Star Destroyer looks great. Suprisingly the Sebulba looked great as well.

Dang, I'd love to go to that.. Humm... I gues Portland isn't THAT far away.

Since I won't be getting to Portland any time soon--thanks for all the great pictures! It's the next best thing to visiting the exhibit. Thanks for taking the time to share them!

Wow! Is that a tour? Please tell me they're heading out east.

Sorry would you have prefered that I only post a few? I took pictures of everything there except for a few weapons that somehow I forgot to go back to after the area was attacked by kids while I was there.

I went to the star wars thing at a museum in Brooklyn back in '02. Mayhap it is the same tour?

For everyone, if you do go , DONT waste you money on the Millennium Falcon, it was only $5 but it was like a 5 min plantorium thing set in the ****pit of the falcon.

I saw one in Houston a few years back, but I think that was the Magic of Myth exhibit.

Whats the difference? Do they emphasize different props or what?

Thanks for the schedule! I'm about 5 hours from Ft. Worth, so that might be a possibility next summer.

This one is very science driven. There is a lot of science tie-ins to all these things. But from the pics you can tell what I was interested in. There were a few lil Lucas films talking about items but most the audio had to do with how could be compared to current science and how it would or wouldn't compare to current technology.

Also I have gone thru and deleted a lot of duplicates, now its down to 146 pics. There are mulitpule angles of items but should not be any true duplicates.

No porblem, the one thing that stood out to me was the poor scheduling of the L.A. show. That would make bank if it ran during C4.
