Hey fellas. I've finally finished my latest diorama project. Here are my photos and a brief description of my fan fiction. Hope you enjoy...
Ortho Thax Solari, better known locally as "the Scumbag Ortho," is one of the innumerable inhabitants of Coruscant's seedy underworld. His mechanic/droid shop named "Ortho's Repair" is located in the underground Workman's District of the region known as Ord City, situated approximately 60 km west of Imperial Center. Ord City, once named in honor of the Mantellian Savrip's homeworld Ord Mantell, is centered in one of several planet-wide "alien freezones" (large circular segregation locales for indigent alien species). In the once Grand Plaza of Ord City near Crown Estates tenement housing, a public turbolift gives access to the Workman's district and Ortho's below ground.
A vagrant lies in the public corridor.
Ortho regularly "donates" generous bribes to local law enforcement to ignore his nefarious activities, in return they keep his public corridor well lit.
In many sections of the most destitute areas of Coruscant, poor creatures are beleagured by war propaganda at every turn.
His mechanical knack allows him to repair anything that is brought into his shop, from blasters, to droids, to airspeeders, to bacta tanks.
A sophisticated forcefield generator in the door secure's Ortho's shop from night-time trespassers.
For those who force entry beyond the shield door one of Ortho's toys awaits them (large blaster hanging from ceiling)
A droideka lies disassembled.
Ortho's shop is also his home (this is his bed behind the curtain).
The "Scumbag" moonlights as the manager of a chop-shop for the criminal organization Black Sun. Occasionally middle-ranking members will hold meetings in Ortho's garage. It is typically re-purposed droids that slave away in his garage, since trustworthy employees, in an organization of criminals, are hard to come by.
Ortho's Shop after hours. The large blast door leads into a large subterranean passage for airspeeders and small space-faring vessels. It eventually leads to the surface of Coruscant.
A droid oil bath.
