Omar Ovalle revisits Obi-Wan's Boga

For those who do not know the animal, the Boga is a species of the family of varactyls fromUtapau. LEGO produced a minifigure in the set 7255 General Grievous Chase released in 2005. We discover this Boga in theEpisode III Revenge of the Sith when Obi-Wan launches in pursuit of Grievous and the animal hit by enemy fire carries its rider in a fall of several hundred meters.

For the anecdote, the animal would have survived this fall, even if the film does not say it, and it is even said that the cry launched by Obi-Wan to keep the Between Raiders in L'Episode IV A New Hope would be inspired by that of Boga ...

Omar Ovalle delivers here a version of this Boga at the scale of Action Figures that he stages. Some people criticize the mix of genres, I see this association more as a possibility to vary the scale of the frames, or the speeders and to stage them.

In short, if you want to know more about this series of creations by Omar Ovalle, go to his flickr gallery, he notably produced a fairly convincing Shadow ARF Trooper Speeder Bike. I'll let you discover the rest.
