To me obi looked to be about Ewan's real age (34), and Luke was supposed to be about 18 tops in EpIV, so that would make Obi around 52, wheras Obi in EpIV looked 65 easy. Beru and Owen were even worse as they both looked to be in their early 20's which would put them at late 30's insted of the mid 50's that they appeared in EpIV.
But that's OK, I go ahead and shoot for the Marvel No-Prize (God I'm old) and give the explination that because Tatooine is a harsh desert planet with two suns, it causes advanced skin aging due to the increased ultraviolet radiation.
