Featured Photography: “Boba Fett’s New Ride”
When it comes to Star Wars fan art, it’s always fun to see characters in out-of-universe environments and circumstances. In the case of toy photographer Jedidiego’s Boba Fett’s New Ride, it just so happens that we have an affinity for motorcycles so the sight of a white armored Boba Fett sitting on a beautiful red Ducati 1199 Panigale immediately struck a chord with us. Slave III, anyone?
While an Italian superbike was what initially caught our attention, the rest of Jedidiego’s body of Star Wars-themed work easily held it in place. There is a great mix of atmospheric backdrops, iconic locations, and even an occasional humorous piece like the one featuring a mildly overzealous stormtrooper named Carl. On the other end of the spectrum is nothing short of epic, our personal favorite being this breathtaking shot of an AT-AT attack.
Artist Notes
“What inspired me to shoot Boba Fett and the Ducati Panigale 1199 was the basic color combination of red and white. Also, I was thinking what if boba Fett had a bike?”
