One of the things that made the Star Wars universe so magical was its relatively groundbreaking take on approach to depicting a lived-in, weathered place, that felt like it had history and people striving to earn a living, unlike the clean, sterile environments of scifi predecessors like Star Trek. LEGO builder DarthBricks has set about building a series of large vignettes as part of a LEGO RPG they’re playing. The detailed scenes perfectly encapsulate the cluttered, imperfect world of the Empire. First up is this scene from Corellia, where a few Rebels spy on an Imperial patrol.
Next is a scene from the desert world of Tatooine, where the Rebels ambush some troopers. The amount of detailing feels just right, with enough texture to the dust-covered walls to make it feel worn, while still keeping the focus on the action.
Let’s see where DarthBricks goes next. Perhaps Kashyyk or Scarif?
I’m also in this RPG! DarthBricks is a really great builder. Here are my submissions: https://www.flickr.com/photos/185269945@N06/albums/72157715903522338
Wow, thank you very much! I feel honored! I heard rumors that the Nightfall is on his way to Mustafar to destroy an imperial base :)
