The Pantone Colour References for Star Wars Character Boba Fett
Always love seeing these colour inspired random design snippet’s from the ever increasing fountain-of-knowledge, in this case the ‘snippet’ is the Pantone Colour References for Star Wars Character Boba Fett.
Came across this snippet, as usual found on my daily Reddit purge, courtesy of a blog post on Daniel Gray’s website.
I love his open questions, especially:
Is the dark side coated, or uncoated?
Daniel Gray: “Flicking through the enormous and fantastic The Making of The Empire Strikes Back, I stumbled upon this little curio: Pantone references for Boba Fett’s costume, provided by ILM for the licensing branch of Lucasfilm.
Presumably similar guidelines were drawn up for other characters.
What specific shade is Yoda?
What are the colour refs for all of the lightsabers?
Is the dark side coated or uncoated?”
All very good questions Daniel, all very good questions indeed.
