Oky Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 Since there seems to be MOC drought in the SW forum right now, here's a little vignette to get the Clone Wars community build going. It's a micro-scale recreation of the Battle of Dantooine from the original (and IMO still superior) Clone Wars series, showing Mace Windu taking out a seismic tank after defeating almost an entire army of super battle droids. This was one of the most creative displays of vehicle design and force usage that I have ever seen, so I simply had to build a recreation of it for this community build! The first image obviously employs some forced perspective. Here's a side view of the micro-scale tank: For comparison, here's a reference image from the cartoon: And here's one from the front: I hope you like this simple scene and hope to see more entries in this community build.

M<0><0<DSWIM Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 Very nice! This scene was pretty awesome. I'd love to see you recreate the part where Mace uses the Force to tear apart all the SBDs! Quote
Oky Posted April 13, 2013 Author Posted April 13, 2013 Thanks! I was actually thinking about doing something like that since that scene was so awesome too, but I decided against it since there wouldn't be any actual building involved as it would just be Mace Windu with some battle droids on a baseplate.

Bubble Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 (edited) Even though before now I didn't even know what Dantooine was, I don't think I could even build something like this. Edited April 13, 2013 by Bubble Quote

Unless you built it in, say, Moodland scale! Quote

And if you haven't seen the original show, I can highly recommend it! You can find it on Youtube. Unless you built it in, say, Moodland scale! True, but I'll leave that to the Moodland Master. This was just one of many ideas I've had in mind for this CB, so I have plenty of other entries to build. Quote

But seriously, I used all my reddish and dark brown to make a tree that doesn't even look good, and I didn't even use 150 pieces to build it. Also, thanks for the advice, and I will most likely watch the show later tonight. Quote
Only Sinner Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 (edited) This is a great MOC for a great show. Although, I really like The Clone Wars tv show, you're right in that the first one was significantly more badass. It took me a long time to get used to the art style, but now I appreciate it.
