An early concept design for the farming/grassland world of Sicemon, originally to have been home to a Rebel base, where our heroes gather to plan their final attack on the Emperor- ultimately cut from REVENGE OF THE JEDI, and the important story points of its scenes transferred to deep space instead- and which may now be gaining new life within the exciting animated series REBELS, being heavily influenced by McQuarrie's great talents for the Classic Trilogy, coming soon from LUCASFILM ANIMATION- set in the exciting period of Rebellion versus Empire between EPISODEs III and IV.
Concept art by Dave Filoni-his first with TIE fighters!- for the new REBELS series, coming soon... |
One interesting thing to note is that some grass-world concepts were later used to depict areas of Alderaan - so if the Rebels concept art is actually in the show it could be a rebel planet, or Alderaan, or somewhere else. It's pretty exciting and I like that they are using those old concepts, as they did in The Clone Wars.
