[SoNE Ep. VI] Team Green on Ord Mantell

[WickNole]

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

The team that was sent to Ord Mantell had finally been able to locate the smugglers' refueling station in the middle of a large junkyard. As the smugglers' activities were of no interest for the team, it was only the information what mattered.

- "What do you know on the location of a bounty hunter named Boba Fett?"

- "Who? Boby Fiatt? Haven't heard of the guy with such a name."

- "Don't you try to play with us on that. We know that he was on Ord Mantell, and we've located the ship leaving this sector. We already told you that we are not interested in your little business here and we shall leave as we arrived: quietly and with no other questions asked... unless you decide to keep the information we are looking for undisclosed. In this case we 'd have to stay here for a little longer. And you wouldn't want that to happen."

- "Sir! The refueling station mainframe on the lower level shows that the Slave II was exactly here three standard days ago."

- "Anything else to add you have?"

- "So... The Fett, huh. He 'd been here a while ago. You 've missed him for a few days, actually. Always thought you rebels are quicker in such matters."

- "Have you got any information on his final destination?"

- "Ummmm... not really. He uses this place only to refuel. The only thing he told was something about Felucia... and the information on the scanner shows the direction of his hyperjump towards there as well."

- "It seems that you may tell truth on that... Unfortunately, there is no new information here. However, as we promised, we will leave now."

Overview of the location.

The base is located underground. One of the entrances is marked by a wreck of an AT-AT leg directly above.

The lowest level houses the refueling station mainframe, directly above it are the walkways and one of the computer terminals.

Directly above the entrance, on the carcass of the AT-AT leg the smugglers had installed a satellite dish and small platform.

Some technical specs and extra comments:

The base is 13*13 studs, and the overhang there brings it to 14*14. On top, where the rock piece is, it is 15*15 in the widest spot, And there is some (small) overhang of the AT-AT leg's "claws" on top of the rock.

I've always wanted to build a proper size AT-AT, and this leg was staying on the table for a year now already, but I didn't move any further with the construction since. Even been thinking of disassembling it ... but luckily didn't do that. The moment I've red the task for this episode, I new what will be put on top of that.

[Graham Gidman]

Wow, what a build. Seriously, man, I'm glad we've got you going on our side.

[LegoFjotten]

Great build!

[goatman461]

Very clever. I agree that the rock work is phenomenal. Great use of color (or lack thereof) too

[Disco86]

That rockwork is so genius. The Overall building technique is really difficult and you did your best to use the 16x16 saize Limit to the best effect !
