Behind the scenes

"For Yoda's crest I relied heavily on asian character design. The basis is however very close to the symbol for Feng Shui. [sic]"
―Philip Metschan[2]

Yoda's crest was designed by conceptual artist Philip Metschan for Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones.[3] In the 1994 novel The Courtship of Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker was given a stone box adorned with "the two glyphs that spelled Yoda's name".[4] The emblem drawn by Metschan also featured two glyphs at the center of the crest.[3]
