I haven't seen the movie yet (waiting for the DVD release next month), so no spoilers please.
ILM have posted a gallery of concept art from the movie here (http://www.ilm.com/visual_development/the-force-awakens-portfolio/).
Some interesting vehicle and building ideas in the mix.

They look great. I love the folding wings of the Tie.
BTW The Wookiee did it!

My thoughts exactly!
I still have the portfolio reproductions of McQuarrie's work on 'the' trilogy, of which I'm going to frame a select few, to hang in my gaming room. Some of these would certainly not look out of place among those...
-
BTW The Wookiee did it!
NOOOOOOOOO (I believe that's the correct quote. I haven't watched any of the reissues, as I prefer my memories of the originals)
I hadn't bothered to pick up the concept art book, but those images make it very tempting.

Dumbledore kills Snape. Luke is Harry's father. Rosebud is the name of his first wife. lol
Seriously, though, the DVD is out next month?!
-

Correctly it would read: "The Wookiee did it all. He´s to blame for everything."

Same day as Dr. Who season 9! :o

I'm going to commit a heresy here and say I might actually find these pieces of art more inspiring then the actual movie. (Which I found quite nice)

I'm with you YPU. Some of the art decisions were better. Love the art of the stuff that I don't remember seeing (the smoking desert barge is awesome!). I also love the toppled AT-ATs inside the derelict destroyer.
The folding TIE wings are neat if...not odd. While the reduce height they increase width so they wouldn't make quite as much sense (unless a mechanical arm picks them up and stores them on shelves). Most folding stuff for naval aviation aims at reducing the footprint of the aircraft (or allowing it to fit on service elevators).
I'd like to have some of these as posters. And I looove the mountain-top castle.

Love the folding Tie on pic 8 as well.
Love pic 27 and 33.
DVD release is April 5th.
Digital d/l is April 1st I think.

At SW level tech, TIE panels should be able to fold up like origami into a compact package. But Empire/FO ships being as big as they are, they DNGAF about space and apparently just stack em and launch em out of a Pez dispenser like mechanism in the hangar.
