STAR WARS: EPISODE VII — Leaked Photo of Black and Chrome X-Wing
We recently posted aerial photos of the Millennium Falcon and a covered X-Wing fighter from Star Wars: Episode VII. That photo was taken by a local flight school — the FlyMAC.
Latino-Review got a huge scoop and received set photos taken by aerial drone. Yes, technology is awesome and scary. The team behind this is Paul K, Brad3DLP, Longerfellow, and Dr. Moose. The level of set spying has gone into a new crazy territory with these photos. I’m not sure how studios can protect against drones.
This large image has two full sized X-Wings (uncovered) and about three more flat ones. I love that J.J. Abrams is using in-camera effects and not just relying on CGI set extension for the X-wings in the back. Also in the photo is half of a full-sized Millennium Falcon.
The most interesting part of these photos is a black, chrome, and orange X-Wing. I wish this photo was sharper. We don’t know who this belongs to, and I’m not going to even try to speculate. Latino-Review has a lot more photos and analysis that you should checkout.
If you want to see what the X-Wing looks like up close, watch the video with Abrams talking about Star Wars: Force for Change.
Star Wars: Episode VII hit theaters December 18th, 2015.
