Super cool! Kitbashing at its finest! I wonder what the backstory is, and who the mysterious character is...

Thank you very much, I am happy if you like it. On Friday the Trooper figure finally came, which I was able to finish over the weekend. It's a 3.75" (9.5cm) Tie Fighter Pilot from Hasbro, which I have completely repainted. So I still have to practice painting figures, this is one of my first. I'm glad I don't had to paint the face.
The movable joints of the legs are filled with a spatula. I also built a spacious bag for the bike out of cardboard and wet toilet paper.
The story behind the scene is that a local from Tatooine stole the uniform of a fallen trooper after the fall of the empire and repainted it to match the landscape in order to camouflage himself a little from militant groups and looters. The Speeder Bike is his own construction from various cannibalized war materials. And so he now drives as a courier across the dusty planet... Please see the new album pictures.
