- In this video, we share the linen backing and restoration processes being performed on a "Star Wars" British Quad movie poster. This poster was done for a UK Client "Vintage and Modern Movie Art" who will be opening shop soon!
The Poster:
The British quad poster for the 1977 film "Star Wars," designed by Tom Chantrell, is an iconic piece of cinematic art renowned for its dynamic composition and vibrant color palette. Chantrell's poster captures the essence of the film's adventurous spirit, featuring dramatic depictions of Luke, Leia, and Darth Vader, set against a backdrop of space battles and starships. The artwork's vivid and detailed style contributed to the film's allure, helping to attract audiences with its promise of epic adventure and intergalactic intrigue. This poster has since become a treasured collector's item and a symbol of the film's enduring legacy.

I clicked on the video expecting one of those fake restoration videos that have been so popular lately, but instead found a work of art. This is truly beautiful!
Glad you enjoyed it 🥰
Excellent work! Can you restore the rest of the franchise next?
May the algorithm be with your channel. Fantastic work and very soothing to watch.
The combining of unexpected colours is astonishing.
Now that's what I call using the force! Amazing
If yall released full real time videos of this, like 10 hours + I’d never leave this channel
I have some experience with the colored-pencil method of filling in crease lines from when I was a custom framer, and I must say the layering of colors in the 3:40 segment was magnificent.
all that work for such a short glamor shot. gotta give us at least a full minute to revel in the end result
Noted ☺️
If only you could've gotten to the Halo 3 poster in Colorado before they recently took it down. Super cool work !
As a poster and art print collector, as well as being an artist myself, I absolutely loved watching this process. The meeting of science, art, and craftsmanship is awesome. Subscribed!
Glad you enjoyed it 🥰
A true understanding of colours and materials, and a genuine joy to watch.
Better than my attempts as a kid, just using a black Sharpie!
I personally like the cracks. What a beautiful restoration 😊!
Artist's work in the service of the preservation of cinematographic heritage. Hats off to Madame !!
🥰
Cannot understand how that just doesnt destroy the poster, paper and colour. Very impressive
Not gonna lie, when i clicked the video i thought it was just gonna be some random amateur youtube filling in a worn down poster with a colored pencil. Wasnt expecting this professional restoration demonstration.
🥰
Glad you didn't lie
That turned out beautiful.
A lot of work & true craftsmanship, well done. Great video 😊
Thanks yt algorithm ❤ liked & subbed. Especially loved the pacing of it, no rushing through with fast cuts for the pencils part.
Thank you 🥰
Seriously fascinating process! Thank you for producing this video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Just yesterday i was randomly wondering if anyone was out there restoring works of art on paper. Now I know it exists for prints!
Stunning result Ladies.
My respect.
Thank you 😊
I had that poster (this was the European “A” poster)
From a Dutch pulp 1977 magazine. A3.
I framed it and felt from the wall badly damaged and threw it away.
The idiot that I was 😄
Still looking lol
Hitkrant 1977.
Totally impressive, didn’t know this was a thing. Awesome work. Wow just wow!
Thank you 😊
Seeing so much love being put into the restoration of one of my favourite posters made me very happy, and as an artist myself I could really appreciate the battle with the pinks and other colours in that laser beam to get it to blend. Awesome work, now subscribing! 👏👏👏💯
🥰
This is amazing. Fascinating and relaxing to watch! Subscribed 😊
Thank you! 😊
That is absolutely amazing work and talent 😭 and my favorite movie of all time too
I have an old iron maiden tour poster that was hanging on the ceiling of my old garage from the previous owner. That thing could really use some love and care like this.
Wonderful restoration
Wow…People with amazing skills always amazes me, Amazing!
Really fascinating. Always wondered about the mounting process. And surprised that you showed the meticulous cosmetic touch up with the various Prismacolors.
For that kind of videos it's worth to watch youtube. Something peacefull, entertaining but also educative.
Damn right you showed off that laser pencilling. Those colors are so hard to do. This was an amazing watch.
🥰
Amazing work!
Thank you for the flashback to my youth!
Very satisfying, both the process and the result!
Love seeing this process in action.
Thanks for sharing these videos!
Awesome!
What a great work! Greetings from Chile
🥰
Watching that close up colored pencil work is so thrilling for some reason.
Wow… great job, nice skill
Thank you!
Utterly stunning work.
Thank you 🥰
UA-cam recommendations got it right today.. wonderful stuff, looking forward to bingeing the rest of your videos
So kind 🥰
Amazing work. Had no idea this was even possible for paper. Thought it at least needed to be on canvas.
this is so satisfying.
Generative Fill in real life form! Great work!🤘🏻
Beautiful poster and another great job by you guys! I have the tall version of this poster framed in my office. Cherished every day. Star Wars forever ❤
This is one of the most beautiful movie poster ever. You did an amazing job.
Thank you 😊
The skillset... definitely subscribed...👍
🥰
Human touch will never be replaced
wow... just WOW!
Such artistry! 👍👍‼️
🥰
Very much enjoyed this. Amazing work!
Thank you 😊
Pretty amazing work.
I gasp when I saw water being added, to clean it, not gonna lie, considering what water does to paper but this was sooooo well done. I love this
🥰
I don’t understand. In my 50 years of life, every time I’ve put water on paper, it has warped and melted and died. What in the world is happening here? This is like fire freezing something.
Thank god i'm not the only one who is completely baffled
@@Shiftarus there’s at least three of us… Because I’m flummoxed
I suppose since it has that plastic sheet giving it structure, and then squeegeed/ mounted taut to the canvas so wrinkling wouldn't be a possibility.
Id also assume they go about it on a case by case basis, like if they were dealing with something using water soluble ink.
you can wet a paper so long as it's on a flat even surface that supports its shape. in order for it to dry flat you then have to weigh it down (or glue it I suppose?). paper warps when you let it dry without support because the fibers spread out unevenly.
not an expert though.
The force is with her, always…
I really wish I know somebody in my area who could do this……This is increadible !
I like seeing posters looking aged and used .. it adds character .
Love- love the Before and After!
Extraordinary work! Just hopping you are appreciated by clients for such a detailed work!
This is so cool and satisfying. Doesn't soaking the poster like that make it really easy to accidentally tear?
thats where the mylar sheet comes in to hold everything in place..once the paper dries it will be strong and the mylar will peel right off...i did this to a few old maps....the mylar is key.
Such a beautiful quad. Wish I had this version instead of the awards one.
that's pretty awesome
Good vid! Nice narration, closeups, and steps back 👍
Thank you 😁
It's hypnotic to watch this process and I always want to watch more. Great work.
Impressive
Beautiful ❤
Thank you 🥰
I was like Why are you adding water .. wouldn't that ruin the paper... good work.
This is the most satisfying thing I've watched in a very long time. Awesome work!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Perfect
🥰
Looks like brand new 💗
C’est top , je ne connaissais pas vive you tube
❤❤❤
🥰
I love watching you guys' work & the outcome is always awesome! George The GlassMan
Thank you 😊
My ANxiety Shot up when i saw water being Sprayed onto this... Incredible work
Thank you 😊
@@FourthConeRestoration Im going to Bring People over from Reddit Here
Amazing. I wish I had some old posters to send you.
🥰
Rian Johnson should watch this, to understand how cherished and valuable Star Wars is for some.
I have Japanese posters and i only have one Belgian, they are really fragile paper because they are so thin, all are 80s posters 😊 Taking the Belgian one which is Scanners to Comic con to be signed by Michael Ironside, have to keep it clipped to the frame back
Attach of the crayons... Great job. I was a bit worried at the start with the water and bleach treatments on a paper poster...
Amazing
When I think restoration I imagine something brought back to the quality when acquired.... but this has been restored to when it was just printed! Amazing.
That was an incredible process and technique. But I could swear the color looks ever so slightly faded on the AFTER photo.
crazy u guys have a full process of persevering the paper. wonder who thought of that
Pretty cool work. I have your next project! It’s an X-Men animated series poster I got from Pizza Hut in the 4th grade. I can’t bring myself to trash it. 😆
❤
Mesmerizing work! It got me thinking, what if the poster is printed on both sides? How different is the process?
Depends entirely on what the client wants done! We do have other processes to flatten the paper without covering the back as well 😊
I do like that the creases are removed, but prefer the tri-fold lines remain unpainted. I don't know. It gives a bit more charm and helps it to retain its authenticity. Masterful work but that is just my opinion.
It's just like digital restoration in photoshop but in real life. So cool. I bet this is immensely satisfying work.
Wow what an amazing job! Lovely video too. Can you do this if the poster has been signed or will the ink from the signatures bleed?
Yes, we work with signed posters all of the time! We test each signature and adjust our process accordingly 😊
I've been watching fine arts restoration and conservation on the Baumgartner Restoration channel for years and I'm surprised that you'd use something like paints and colored pencils. I would have thought you'd want something reversible. Hosing it down with water was also surprising but I don't know how durable this poster paper is and it seems like you got a favorable result.
All of our restoration techniques are reversible 😊
@@FourthConeRestoration I'd love to hear more about how it is reversible!
Beautiful work as always! I love the UK Quad format, that wide horizontal frame always feels epic.
What is the largest size that you're able to restore? 3-sheets? 6-sheets?
SO RAD! As a SW Fanboy I'd rather watch this then what's on Disney+ right now! lol
🥰
I just wish you could clean disney out of star wars with this technique.
I think it might be worth mentioning in future videos, for the benefits of idiots like me, that the posters are mounted on Linen Paper.
I was of the impression that linen was exclusively cloth, so I was confused when you mentioned mounting the poster onto paper, but then called it linen later on. I had to google to find out you can get linen based paper.
We are working on a video explaining linen backing and it's benefits! For our process specifically, we mount an acid-free barrier paper onto the linen before mounting the poster. Hope that clears it up a little!
Beautiful work. How much did a process like that cost to do?
I’d sell my son to own that poster!
you do incredible work. just out of curiosity, how much would you chare for a job like this?
The 1 dislike must be a Disney exec.
😂
Pretty work. MTFBWY
If you're using water based paints for restoration, does that mean those colors will wash out if you ever had to restore it again?
I love your guys work, I follow you on Instagram as well, I was wondering do you guys fix holes cause my bugs. I have a poster that was hanging on the wall, I noticed a little holes and some of the edge has been chewed away by some kind of insect. Do you guys replace paper logs like that?
We repair bug damage all of the time! If you send us an email with photos we can get you a quote 😊
If you do it, it is called alteration. But if you pay $2k to get it done. It is restoration and adds more value
I cannot say for sure because my area of expertize is completely different but you look like pros. I own an Usa printed 1983 Rotj one sheet style B; now its paper is quite different from the one in the video which is more filmsy; the problem, mostly, stands in the fold signs that are clearly seen when all displayed. I am not going, well not even trying to restore it as in the video because it is clearly understandable that mine needs a completely different restoration tecnique. What would You recommend ? Thank You for the video by the way.
