Before the computing era, ILM was the master of oil matte painting, making audiences believe that some of the sets in the original Star Wars and Indiana Jones trilogy were real when they weren’t. They were the work of geniuses like Chris Evans, Michael Pangrazio, Frank Ordaz, Harrison Ellenshaw and Ralph McQuarrie ! Forever thank you, to their handmade art and the work of their colleagues, that made us dream of impossible worlds and fantastic places across Earth and the Universe.

There are more background paintings on this article, featuring comments by the masters/artists themselves ! 

Some of the following pieces were made by other artists 2:

Can I talk to you about the importance of Hogswatch?

If you haven’t read Terry Pratchett’s Hogfather may i recommend it for your December reading? The Discworld’s version of Father Christmas is missing presumed …dead? And someone else has stepped in to take hold of the reigns.

If you can’t figure out why someone would want to assassinate a rosy nosed, white whiskered, winter gift giver then read this book.

If you are puzzled why the Grim Reaper would then moonlight delivering presents to all the good boys and girls then read this book! 

If you ever wondered why humanity puts such effort into making children believe in the Tooth Fairy, Bogeymen and a particular jolly, fat man when we all know they aren’t real… read this book. The ending blows your mind.

And on the morning of 25th December you must believe in the Fat Man otherwise… well, that would be telling!

If you ever question the depths of depravity available to you in Skyrim please refer to this story;

I am unable to finish the Thieves Guild quest because I accidentally killed an essential quest npc. Erikur in Solitude, you probably know him because his sister wont shut up about it. Erikur was the last quest giver I needed to become the master of the Thieves Guild. He is suppose to be essential, as in he cannot be killed ever because important npc is important. 

‘So where is he?’ I hear you asking.

He is gone. 

Gone into my characters tummy. You see, I was fooling around with the glorious weapon that is the Wabbajack and happened to turn Erikur into a sweetroll….and then I ate him. I ate Erikur. He’s gone forever. Into my tummy. 

I glitched out a main questline because I turned a man into a sweetroll and then I c o n s u m e d  h i m.

I’m just gonna go ahead and say it:  this was the Wabbajack’s original purpose. It’s too perfect for Sheogorath not to have planned this.
