Ralph McQuarrie CONCEPT SNOW SPEEDER Replica
Welcome to the Ralph McQuarrie CONCEPT SNOW SPEEDER page. Ralph has always been my favourite designer and I was lucky enough to meet him and tell him in person.
This webpage features a replica I created from scratch - his concept SNOW SPEEDER. Ralph went through MANY designs for this aircraft, and you can see the final shape evolve in his many paintings. My favorite ESB pre production painting features two of these snow speeders flanking a fallen AT-AT. I took most of my design cues from this illustration.
