Star Wars - Battle of Hoth


I have only very vague recollections of seeing the first Star Wars film in the theater; 
it was “The Empire Strikes Back” that had a significant impression on me, 
especially the "battle of Hoth". I'll never forget the first time I saw 
those towering AT-AT walkers appear on the horizon, and the chill of fear. 
(Now THOSE were some FX, before the age of CGI ...)

I devoted many a moment recreating that scene as a kid -- it's been a few decades, 
but thought I'd try it again. Of course, I had to throw in the Imperial Droid as well.

"I went out for a walk..."


“I only went out for a walk,
and finally concluded to stay out till sundown,
for going out, I found,
was really going in.”
— John Muir, 1938
