I did a bunch of concepts a while back for a possible The Last Starfighter sequel or reboot. Hopefully it still goes somewhere in future. Here are some looser sketches for images I didn’t get to work up and finish. I worked with Gary Whitta and Jonathan Betuel on the project #thelaststarfighter #conceptart #spaceship #scifi
