Incredible immersive scene captures the grimy, lived-in beauty of the Star Wars universe

The latest immersive scene from master Star Wars builder @simulterious1 depicts some illicit dealings in Port Steergard, a location only briefly seen in Season 2 of Andor. Created for the @downfallrpg, the scene shows a Falleen lord menacing some Imperials while guards in Tantel armor look on. What’s most impressive about the build is the grimy authenticity of the port. The discoloration in the brickwork and the blend of geometric shapes and wild greebles that Simulterious employs is peak Star Wars.

The fallen leaves tell a story in this epic Elden Ring inspired build

The Lands Between are a vast and deadly place where the glowing Erdtree towers as a guiding light and source of hope. @hake__makes has taken inspiration from Elden Ring for this truly epic LEGO creation, but his intent is to depict the Tree of Life itself. A massive black sea serves as the model’s base, giving way to an island of rock, overgrowth, and a tree that should not exist. The enormous tree is rooted on the very end of the precipice, giving a perception that it may tip the whole island. As Nathan put it, ” I wanted the island to look untouched by man but have enough structure to seem like a phenomenon created by an other worldly being.”
