Project K Part 5: Droid Companions

Droids are a basic part of Star Wars, and Knights of the Old Republic delivered on iconic droid companions. However, they are underrepresented in Lego form, much like the Old Republic era itself. I aim to fix that.

The Site is not Dead and Here’s Two Lego Jawas in a Trench Coat to Prove It

No words. Just Utooni. Okay a few words…

It’s been a while. I’m always working on stuff but I’m really bad about sharing it. Looking to post here more often, if nothing else just to have my ideas down. Anyway, I tried building Utooni from the upcoming Star Wars game Hunters.

These little ones were no easy task. Took a few tries to get one I was happy enough with sharing. Utooni is simply two Jawas scrapped from the waist down. Lower Jawa (are they collectively Utooni, both named Utooni..?) has a 2×4 bracket on his back supporting a brick-built backpack to hold the second Jawa up as close to the shoulder area I could manage. I tried half a dozen combinations of capes before settling on The Last Jedi Luke Skywalker’s cape, which isn’t a match for color but does hide the backpack slightly better with its shape.

If you like purist figures or random Star Wars tat and references, follow me on Instagram @SupremeLeaderD for more frequent updates. Let me know if you like this thing or if I’m crazy for trying to build this character purist.

Purist Baldarek the Bartender

Achievement unlocked (this is before games had achievements.) I always wanted a Baldarek figure! No, I don’t know why. Look, there’s a quarantine on, I don’t have a lot of content right now. Stay safe everyone. And never trust a bartender with bad grammar.

Concept Art: Temple of the Elements

It’s been an uneventful couple of weeks – I got sick and my wife soon followed with an unrelated sick I’m hoping not to also catch. So I was eager to get back into the studio and build something. Here’s a location from my Ghost Division writings brought to brick form!
