Bit late for #MayThe4thBeWithYou but here are some unseen Solo concepts
(thanks to @PhilSzostak for the ok 👍)
(thanks to @PhilSzostak for the ok 👍)
Did quite a lot of swoop bike designs. Bit of x-wing foreshadowing going on here maybe 😬
Another swoop bike. Early on we were exploring a sort of tribal feel.
A rare photobash for me. Falcon docked at what would become Savareen (I think. Locations and names change a lot during development phase).
development sketches and final painting for Vandor (very McQuarrian shape language here of course) #Solo
More development sketches - approaching Dryden Vos’ hangout and more Vandor habitat stuff. I remember drawing these on a flight to NZ to start working on Mortal Engines. Seems like a different world now.
Something very Star Wars about a domed roof. More here on a snowy Vandor.
sketchy thumbs for Han and Chewie arriving at Dryden Vos’ evil boss-type lair #solo
Vandor variants. Did a lot of these 😬 #solo
The docking platform, a perennial SW favourite #solo
Mudtroopers on Mimban #solo
Imperial shipyard on Corellia #solo
Elsewhere on Corellia - Han tinkering with a speeder in his garage #solo
Corellia backstreets
Another view of the Imperial shipyard on Corellia. Han’s speeder here designed by the brilliant Patrick Faulwetter.
Ideas for Han’s apartment interior on Corellia. #solo
Early Corellia concept. I didn’t know it at the time (Rogue One hadn’t been released yet) but Jedha City looked v similar to this 🤷♀️ #solo
Super rough Kessel mines malarkey #Solo
More swoop bikes. There was talk early on of these operating outside the planet’s atmosphere, hence the closed canopy version #Solo
Dryden Vos palace iterations #Solo
Another Imperial shipyard scene on Corellia #solo
And another Dryden Vos hangout. Probably too Jabba’s palace/Luke’s Island. And my ellipses are all over the shop :|
Watery approach to a Vandorian township #Solo
Corellia sketch, rather obvious Imperial boot stamping on the indigenous population metaphor here :| #solo
#solo sketchbook. Habitat development.
Remembering now - this was where you’d meet Dryden Vos, there was talk of it being a Colonel Kurtz up river hideout kinda thing
