Sandor 459 Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Stuart Freeborn passed away today. His work on the original Star Wars films - and many other films - will live forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giftheck 573 Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 That's quite sad. I remember him getting that statue from LucasFilm on the Episode I bonus features. He was a credit to LucasFilm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandor 459 Posted February 6, 2013 Author Share Posted February 6, 2013 "Stuart was already a makeup legend when he started on Star Wars. He brought with him not only decades of experience, but boundless creative energy. His artistry and craftsmanship will live on forever in the characters he created. His Star Wars creatures may be reinterpreted in new forms by new generations, but at their heart, they continue to be what Stuart created for the original films." - George Lucas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
