The IG-88 Droid belongs to George Lucas. Not Disney! XD

Made in MS Paint

Say what you will about Disney Star Wars, but they did have a little nod to IG-88 in the first episode of the Mandolorian series.

I haven’t watched The Mandolorian yet. It’s still not Disney’s idea, so I still won’t give them credit lol

Looking every bit as imposing as it ought to be.

Very. I love how creepy he looks. He’s so intimidating, and yet we only see him on screen for a couple seconds. And he never says a word

No, I never did. But I did play the classic Star Wars Battlefront and it’s sequel. 

Looks fun tho

Had its ups and downs, but the fight against IG-88 was amazing. Perfectly captured just how insanely creepy the droid is.

Ikr?? It's sooo creepy. And I bet that fight was awesome. The IG-88 is my second favorite Star Wars droid.

Small, fast, dangerous to touch and makes an awful lot of noise. Note that somebody thought a representative clip was one where the player gets killed on Easy...

That makes me curious which one is your favourite.

Dang that was awesome XD

And my all time favorite Star Wars droid is the Imperial Probe droid. But the IG-88 is a VERY close second 


I actually also did a sketch of it

Good pick. Easy to forget how some droids are absolutely huge.

Yeah! They're just so awesome. So unique

Heard it was one of Jean Giraud's contributions, although apparently not a lot of his design went into the final prop.

Really? Jean Giraud? I did not know that. That's awesome

He had a hand in almost everything around that time. Designed the space suits for Alien as well - and similarly, a good chunk of the design was cut. He even made a semi-official He-Man design.

Seriously, what a guy.
I mean, when your greatest regret in life is you passed up working on Blade Runner to work on Time Masters, that has to be a sign you did something right.

You could say we have a bit of history.
He is one of my oldest motivators in art, and the closest thing to an idol I have among artists. Even cosplayed as his "magician" character: youtu.be/Ng3pK-tzuh4

Dude, that's awesome!


My two biggest inspirations and/or motivators are Ed Repka and Ralph Mcquarrie. They're so good

McQuarrie is a legend. And chances are even if he hadn't worked on SW, he still would be.

I don't think there is any artist in the industry today who has produced their finest work after taking a bullet to the head.
