Reverse Holochess
In an alternate dimension.
All 8 Dejarik monsters seen in Episodes 4 and 7 are represented here, from left to right: Grimtaash the Molator, the K'lor'slug, the Ghhhk, the Kintan Strider, the Mantellian Savrip, the Houjix, the Monnok, and the Ng'ok.
I began designing this halfway through September for The Brothers Brick's Falcon contest, and have been building it relentlessly for the last five days. My original contest idea was to do the original Colin Cantwell Falcon concept (which Ralph McQuarrie would include in some of his early conceptual paintings), but decided against it because it is essentially the Tantive IV with a different bridge section. I came up with this idea shortly after and liked it better.
I used Ep 4, 5, and 7 as reference for the interior (the Ep 7 interior has some differences, like the floor grid being a totally different pattern, and the wall "sconces" having circular edges rather than square ones). I also used stills and fan-made CGI recreations. Even though the cast of characters is turned upside down, the environment around them is unchanged from Episode 4. The floor patterns, some of the wall details, even down to the crates next to the booth are left as-is from how they are in the first film.
As for the creatures, choosing colors was hard. The holographic look of the game pieces messes with what the creature's real colors should be. Reference material is pretty limited, and can be inconsistent for both color and shape. Phil Tippett's interview with Tested about the redone Ep. 7 monsters was an invaluable resource to see up-close views of these creatures directly from the man who made them both times.
