Future of SW Contest: Where's Solo?

[LukeClarenceVan]

This is my entry for the Future of Star Wars Contest in the small category. After spending a year recovering from his stay in the Sarlacc, Boba Fett is back and better than ever. Having heard that Han Solo has traveled to Mandalore to broker a deal for some Beskar to aid the Rebellion's war effort, Fett returns to his cultural homeland to resume the chase; only this time it's personal. At this point, Boba Fett has found the contact that Han is supposed to be meeting...

"Fett? I thought you were dead!"

"Rumours of my death were greatly exaggerated. Now where's Solo?"

Meanwhile...

"Hey Chewie, I wonder where our contact is?"

"Hurghnnn..."

"Yeah, I've got a bad feeling about this too."

About the build: This is meant as a back alleyway behind the Oyu'baat pub in Keldabe, with the Kelita river going by. It's based on Karen Traviss's depiction of Mandalore rather than that of the Clone Wars TV series, I believe a grittier less metropolitan Mandalore better suits the people. I figure that if the TV series can throw EU continuity under the bus, the new movies can take precedence over the Clone Wars and restore the EU version of Mandalore. ;) Also, with the prize being offered in the vignette category, a Mandalorian MOC should have some advantage... Thanks to the Erdbeereis and the sponsors for holding such a great contest.

Thanks for stopping by!

It looks like your pictures are a bit messed up. If you need help, there is a link to a tutorial in my signature. Thanks for entering!

Thanks, I think I've got it now. I probably should have read that tutorial before posting... ;)

Nice work :thumbup:

Good entry and I really like the river and small waterfall. I personally hope that Fett doesn't come back into the new movies though.

Good luck in the contest.

Thanks! I'm not sure if I'd like to see him return or not - while he's quite cool they'd probably botch him up somehow...

Very great MOC, that waterfall just made my day

[TheLegoDr]

Neat build and much more realistic than mine. I think this actually could be the future, although I agree, they would write something off that doesn't feel like the original characters.

Good luck in the contest.

at first glance i thought the building in the back was micro-scaled, but with han and chewie sitting in it, it fits right fine

Thanks, it's always a gamble when someone else takes over a series.

Nice work on the waterfall and the use of brick-in-brick pieces.
