Good-bye Mr. Ralph McQuarrie

Mr. Ralph McQuarrie has passed away at the age of 82. I've always wanted to meet him as he was probably the most talented traditional illustrator and matte painter of our time. Evolution I.

Yakhchal

Yakhchāl (Persian: یخچال‎ "ice pit"; yakh meaning "ice" and chāl meaning "pit") is an ancient type of evaporative cooler. Above ground, the structure had a domed shape, but had a subterranean storage space; it was often used to store ice, but sometimes was used to store food as well. The subterranean space coupled with the thick heat-resistant construction material insulated the storage space year round. These structures were mainly built and used in Persia. Yakhchal.
