To answer a few questions…
We built some sets with playsets, Blockade Runner walls were made with vaccuform plastic, several walls were printed on paper by taking stills from the films, removing characters in photoshop and isolating each wall and blowing it up to scale.
Lots of “making of” info on our website:
