[MOC] Hideout on Ikkrukk

[Sentinel_Brix]

 

Here I present a build I made for my continuous "Flame and Ashes" - comic. 

For my comic, I usually would build a scene with a clear aim to support the action and dialogs. This often yields builds, that look like a theater stage or filming set. This time I wanted to create a scene, that is both nice to display and supports the dialogs and scenes. Hence I started with creating these little houses, that would make my little village and early on I realized I need to place them to each other in an interesting way. The outcome was very satisfying and it was a lot of fun adding life with the props like the water tank, the sealed well and of course, some Ikkrukki villagers.

The landspeeder is an alternate version of the blue one I have used in another work. This one is the Delvin 57-Radiant.

Last but not least, it was a great pleasure to feature two well-known, obscure bounty hunters (see comic in the spoiler section). I tried to write them in character and incorporated some traits form the legends book 'Tales of the Bounty Hunters'. I simply love these memorable side-side characters and I hope you enjoy them appearing in my story too.

Here are some additional diorama images:

Thanks for reading! Comments welcome!

 

* For new readers who are not familiar with the characters and want to learn more about them, I advertise to look into my Flickr account where you can find all the comic episodes of "book 1" Flight of the Phoenix and "book 2" Flame and Ashes, that is in work now.

Great little 'pods' and the details really work well on this. You sure have an eye for a good little scene.

Amazing. In first second you can tell it is Star Wars :) That's good, it means you captured the iconic design.

P.S. I see so many new curved slopes in use here. They are all great :)

Thank you very much. Capturing the visual language of Star Wars is always my goal and big part of the fun. Your feedback means a lot
