Engineering for excellence – the Star Wars builds of Jürgen Wittner [Interview]

Today we’re joined by fan designer Jürgen Wittner, whose incredible Star Wars vehicles, built at 1:16 scale, are masterworks of LEGO engineering. We talk about his latest project, the Fall of Hoth, creative collaboration, and the process for designing and sharing these premium builds.

TBB: Hi, Jürgen. It’s been some time since the Brothers Brick checked in with you, but you’ve been quite busy. Maybe we can start by talking a bit about your latest build, the Fall of Hoth. I saw the illustration by Laurie Greasley and the 3D model by Jeff Lu. What inspired you to continue adapting this image into LEGO? Did you coordinate with either of the other artists?

Lando’s Treadable from Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker at LEGO UCS scale

While Star Wars may be known best for epic spacecraft like the Star Destroyer and the Millenium Falcon, there have been more than a few vehicles of a more humble design, like the Sandcrawler. The new sequel trilogy had perhaps more new ships than previous movies, but Jürgen Wittner, has set his sights on one of the most interesting new vehicles, the Treadable, the tank of a mobile home owned by Lando Calrissian.
