Done!



I wanted my first submission to be easy and also to contain customs from previous Yakfinities.
I finished this before I finished my Luggabeast since I wanted all the blue paint to be worn off.

Vik's Droid Shop Vik's Droid Shop or simply the Droid Shop is located in the small moisture farming community of Wayfar on Tatooine. Vik Tekk was tired of competing with the other clans for salvage rights around Mos Eisley and Mos Espa, so he moved his family to Wayfar, south of the Jundland Wastes and east of the Great Western Dune Sea. He and his sons serve the community by repairing their droids and selling them ones they may (or may not) need.

Nice desert and carcass. What's the pink-eyed brown head above the Luggabeast skeleton?

That's the sand worm creature that pops it's head out of the sand at the end of the opening scene when the First Order troops capture Poe...

:wink:

Thanks!
Chewie is correct. Here's a pic of it when it still had a body.



I dropped my Jakku box and it (and the stupid stupid Steelpecker broke. I was eventually going to decapitate the worm anyway so it didn't really matter.

I like the Droid tent. I think the real reason he left the other Jawas is because he can't stand clutter! That is one clean shop! I like the tallness of the tent. It allows us to see everything clearly.

Here's The Second Sun Tavern, a location I developed for my photonovel. It's an extremely simple concept which just needed to be interesting enough to keep reader's attention for a bit. I think some of these angles and shots are actually better than what made it into the chapter too. :lol:

Thanks Utinniii. I thought about junking it up a bit more but I wanted to make sure you could see them hard at work and not be distracted by clutter.

Jodo-Really like the Second Sun tavern, especially the artwork :wink:
I like the interior shot where it makes it look like an actual locale and not a diorama

Here is my Jakku diorama. I’ve included my custom Deputies Aquarivio and Avairio. You can also see I added the lights on BB-8's body and sensors. I will change some of the junk to more screen accurate junk and add more Jakkuvians as I make them. (DarthApathy, I don't have nearly enough clutter! :p )

This was my first attempt of painting perspective. I had to fix the horizon since it didn't line up. The arch is painted on cardstock and the building is actually 3D. It has different layers.

Bespin Landing Platform Not sure if this one counts or not but here is a Bespin Landing Platform diorama. I used the "diorama" that came with the Bespin Cloud Car. I set it up to show off a custom Cloud Car pilot

Finished my dio for this! I made a droid fighting/boxing arena, it all started out when I made a PZ-4C0 into a boxer, then I had to make him an opponent then I had to make a ring and of course a referee! Found the ring on clearance for 3$ and made the ref out of a Mace Windu head and a GI-Joe body, hope you enjoy

Dex's Diner and The Outlander Club are probably my favorite PT locations...Very nicely done!!! And I also laughed out loud because the boxing ring. :lol: The PZ droid kills me. :lol:

Hopefully I'll find time to do the diorama (or two) that I'd still like to make during this competition. One I know is viable, the other I might run out of time for.
