Darth Lion Posted October 19, 2008 (edited) Hey guys! Here's my first MOC on eurobricks. It names "Rotta's Rescue" and people who saw the new film "The Clone Wars" will remember this scene. Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano find Rotta, the baby-hutt (Jabba's son) in a dungeon on Teth. While they are on their way to find a chance to escape, the brave clone troopers defend the front door with their lives... Hope you like it.

KimT Posted October 19, 2008 Nice work. A very good vignette. Now I haven't seen the movie yet, but it still looks good to me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guss Posted October 19, 2008 I'll say exactly what KimT said ^^ that's a very good vignette, but I haven't see the movie yet ^^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Darth Lion Posted October 19, 2008 I'm sorry. Unfortunately I have no account on brickshelf, but is this right, too? (sorry if this is spam) MTFBWY Lion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skinny Boy Posted October 19, 2008 I haven't seen the movie either, but this looks really good. You've put a lot of detail into your first posted MOC. I could see this as an entry for a SW contest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KimT Posted October 19, 2008 Yep that's the right way to do it. Now go to your first post in this topic and press "edit", then deeplink two or three pics and we're set to have this beauty indexed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah. It's done. Thx for the help. Thx! Yeah, I wanted to put much details in the vignette. I also put the tan bows over the dungeon to make it real. I'm sure I can train my skills by looking at these beautiful buildings in this forum. Greetings Lion Ps: @skinnyboy: Yes, I made this Vignette for a building contest at Imperium der Steine. It's a german forum. I'm a moderator there. Edited October 19, 2008 by Darth Lion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KimT Posted October 19, 2008 Super. I'll index this later today. Now I have to go shopping and do some daily chores Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandy Posted October 19, 2008 I can add myself to the people who haven't seen the movie, but the Rotta-minifig was so adorably cute that I just had to buy it! I got Anakin at the same time as well, but I'm still hunting Ahsoka, Obi Wan and Assajj Ventress minifigs. Anyway, this vignette is quite nice! I just love how cute and miserable Rotta looks behind those bars! By the way, have you guys noticed that you can put Rotta as a head for a minifig torso - and the result looks hilarious, as Rotta's hands suddenly become floppy ears!

Zorro Posted October 19, 2008 Your vignette looks super! And the backgound you chose fits right in (box of a snake or somethign??) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darth Lion Posted October 19, 2008 Your vignette looks super! And the backgound you chose fits right in (box of a snake or somethign??) If I had a snake, I probably would use its box as a background, yeah. But no - I used my decorative skills to make a background on a little table in our kitchen.^^ (sand fresh form the sea^^) @sandy: Yeah! This minifigures are very sweet and a must-have in my collection. But I didn't buy them apart. I bought the complete sets "AT-TE Walker" and "Republic Attack Gunship". But not only because of the figs. Unfortunately I didn't have the chance to buy the old AT-TE/Gunship so I had to buy the new ones. Thx for the tip. lol I just tried not to laugh when I saw Rotta on the body of Anakin. Gruß Lion Ps: Ahsoka is really impressive. Her headpart is wonderful and the face so .... orange.^^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KimT Posted October 19, 2008 Perhaps you could resize some of the pics in the 1st post? The first one is good, being 600x800, but the rest are a little too large. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tim Bit Posted October 19, 2008 That is one great moc I simply love it. I myself have never seen the movie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hope, they have the right size now. Greetings Lion Edited October 19, 2008 by Darth Lion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snake...SNAKE...SNAAAAKE?! Posted October 19, 2008 Very nice first Moc. One of My favs from the film. How did you get that super cool backpack? Clone Wars better than 1 and II!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darth Lion Posted October 20, 2008 (edited) Very nice first Moc.One of My favs from the film. How did you get that super cool backpack? Clone Wars better than 1 and II!!!! Thx. The backpack was my idea. It wasn't easy because sometimes the backpack looks to thick. I made it as little as possible. You need this brick. Then you put this one onto it. (if possible in white) Then you clip this guy on this brick and clip it on two of the four free places. You clip this guys on the last two places. At last, you need a 1x2 republic-sticker from anakin's jedi-starfighter and there it is... If you have this one in new gray you can use it instead of this guy. Like you wish!

Legoking Posted October 20, 2008 I like your MOC and how you included Anikin and his padwan. I really like your background. How you included the sand and white texture. Nice job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KimT Posted October 24, 2008 Indexed. I've moved the smaller pics to the first post, so that the pics correspond with the "rules" of the index. Thanks again for sharing your work with us Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pedro Posted October 24, 2008 Excellent vignette there Darth Lion! Nice compostion, really detailed and it's great to see someone incorporating lil' Rotta into their MOC! As a suggestion, if you 'rotated' the lower section so that the door is on right and your greebled wall at the back it would mean you could pose your clonetrooper so you get a better view of him from the front rather than looking at his back. You'd have two sides open to view the lower floor and could build a bracket or archway along the edge opposite the door to support the upper floor. Like I said, just a suggestion, it's still quality MOC I'm another who hasn't seen the movie yet but still really want to, reckon I'll catch it on DVD release. I have watched the first four episodes of the series though and really enjoyed them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
