Ewok Attack Glider Proof Sheet | |
Sheets like this are
usually identical to what an uncut production box would later look like. Proof
sheets are easily recognizable by the color
bars running along one of the top or side edges, corner marks-used as a
guide to indicate the final size after trimming or cropping, and registration
marks-usually in the shape of small crosshairs these marks would serve as a
guide for the printing plates to ensure that they were all lined up correctly.
Later a sheet like this would be cut along the guides and folded into a production
box.
This particular proof sheet is for the Ewok Combat Glider box. The Ewok Combat Glider has become a focus for Zac and this is just one of the marvelous pieces in his Glider collection.
Finally, we have a shot of the series of Ewok Combat Glider pieces that Zac has assembled. These pieces include examples of several stages in the process used to create the vehicle. Shown are some of the original pieces of photoart for the back of the box, a color key, a proof sheet, various box flat samples and proofs, an Engineering Pilot, a production boxed glider, and included in the series, but not pictured, is a first shot. |
