[MOC] Crystal Caves of Ilum

[Artizan]

During the Clone Wars, Chameleon drois are sent to destroy the Jedi temple on Ilum and the lightsabers crystals housed within. Barriss Offee has just completed the construction of her lightsaber, supervised by Luminara Unduli.

I'm surprised no one has commented on your excellent work. Absolutely incredible build and love seeing a 2003 Clone Wars build! Really unique way to represent the caves and I like how you used a variety of different transparent parts to convey the kyber crystals. That assassin droid build is something else. This is the first attempt I've seen that's absolutely nailed the look while being posable and well built!

I agree with joebiwankenobi, excellent work! I really like your usage of light aqua on the snow, I haven't seen that used before.

Thank you! I was starting to think this forum has either become completely dead or my moc was completely trash that noone wanted to say anything about it. I experimented a lot with the droid before I was satisfied with the design.

Thanks! Actually I first saw it in this Hoth moc which influenced me to have a similar approach with snow:

Great design and feel for the caves. I like the themed colors on each side of the cavern. Nicely done on the droid.

Great work all round. There's a nice balance between the smoothness of the snow/ice and the more studded rock work. Are those original grey pieces mixed in with all the light bluish grey?

Very beautiful and harmonic, congrats !

Looks really great!  Love the Clone Wars 2003 throwback.

fantastic little build, big fan of the droid and the top heavy feel of the landscape. Very fun to look at.
