I am currently working on a text about the role of craftsmanship and artisan practices in modern society. The following section refers to the illustrative work carried out by Ralph McQuarrie on the Star Wars films:
La primera trilogía alcanzó cotas de imaginación no superadas hasta el momento gracias al trabajo de “manitas” como Ralph McQuarrie que hacía maquetas artesanales y dibujos a mano alzada que anticipaban un mundo de impulsos digitales.
Is anyone able to help me with the translation of "cotas de imaginación?"
Many thanks in advance!
