Speaking of The Crow, the next update Lewis showed off the models for an updated Crow and an ATST. Lewis pairs shots from his updated level with comparison images taken from the original, showing off details that would have been impossible in the original - such as windows into TIE fighter bays and a new landing spot for the Moldy Crow. ![]() This update showed off a mostly-untextured level, but now the level had lightmaps completed and it already looked incredible. The second post built out the rest of the level, completing the outside geometry and adding detail to the inside, which while previously built was mostly just statically lit. This layout was untextured, just flat shaded geometry made up from a series of panels and a few embellishments that modern tech allows for - such as some rather nifty looking turbo-lazer cannons. The first post showed just a general layout of the main building of the imperial base. In the last two years Lewis’ ArtStation profile has seen six updates, all of them about this project, and it has given a fascinating look into the level of detail present in both the original and Lewis’ remaster. I say “been in development” loosely as Lewis naturally has a full time job, and this is very much a side project. This project is the brainchild of Jason Lewis, who is a Senior Environment Artist at Obsidian Entertainment, and has been in development for two years.
