RIP to a great artist, designer and all round interesting human being. You shaped the minds of millions in regaurd to sci-fi and will be greatly missed. Your passing does not go un-noticed.

Farewell, true legend. Especially in these here parts of the net.
:(
Rest in peace, indeed.
A great quote from his website homepage;
"His influence on design will be felt forever. There's no doubt in our hearts that centuries from now amazing spaceships will soar, future cities will rise and someone, somewhere will say... 'that looks like something Ralph McQuarrie painted'."
Oh, gosh, that's beautiful. Reading that just gave me shivers, good and proper.
:(
He will be missed.
Grendel, I know at least that WE will all be saying that.

I know nothing about the man except that he was appreciated by George Lucas and did work for him in his beginnings (and later on). He did great Artwork and obviously, enjoyed what he did.
I'm sure that he lived a full and enriching life though we all will be saddened and missed by his passing into the beyond.
Ah man! I just found out Moebius died last week too!! I know, he isn't a Star Wars artist, but he was a legend!!
What the hell!!!
