the scene starts in a temple on tattoine, the scene has a very heavy feeling of foreboding, Vader has had to come deal with a problematic jedi himself, the jedi is on the high ground giving a sense of power, vader is standing in front of the door way which is heavily overexposed lighting him from behind giving him a dark evil silhouette, this over exposure also adds to the feeling of it being on tattoine a desert planet and lets the viewer know its an interior.
the exterior shows r2d2 and c3po waiting for a ship to land in a valley on tattione, the ship is the cavalry arriving to come help the Jedi trapped by vader, the scene is shot at sun set and shows a lot of cold purples and blues whit a mix through the sand that is being kicked up by the ship landing

colour study
a tutorial i did on digital tutors which i also turned into my colour study for tattoine, i was learning that the shadows in scenes like this are blue and purple rather than shades of grey, and the yellows and orange dint acctually stretch to far away from the sun and highlights

Rational
Rational
after reading the text about the creatures in the gloaming a particular thing about the ogres stood out to me, it was stated that "there they are often sought by the smaller Faeries of the Earth who bring them trades and provisions in the hopes they may avenge their aggrieved companions who have come to harm from the other Folk of the Gloaming." I liked this idea of a hired hit man like character in the gloaming, than after researching this i found a mythical creature from Manx mythology from the isle of man known as the Buggane, who is described as a fearsome ogre summoned by pixies to exact revenge on invaders who threatened their forest home.
with this settled I started to look into different animals that would help this creature in its endeavours to track down and eliminate or maim it target, through doing this i figured it would have to move quickly through all types of terrain, and it would have to be able to cover very large distances quickly, from more research i deduced that the human form would fit these needs the best, as humans are one of the best long distance runners in the world and yet still have the ability to climb swim and jump thinks to being bipedal, one of the only other creature that are better distance runner than the human is the ostrich, this is thanks to a large ligament that when running snaps the foot back into place and propelling the creature forward, as this was such a unique yet effective design i added it to my buggane design
after many iterations of the head i settled on a cross between a bat and a lizard, the bat is a nocturnal creature with very poor eye sight but very good hearing which helped the buggane in its natural habitat but also helped to track its prey, and the lizard, especially the komodo dragon is already known as a creature that stalks it prey over long distances and can see incredibly well, so i added eyes and a mouth that were a little more like a lizard to make the most formidable creature possible
lastly is the colour, my buggane design is purple with a rough scaled appearance with spots and imperfections that act as camouflage in the undergrowth at night .

development
final idea, body has stayed the same but the head is dramaticly diffrent
the last idea was to cartoonie for me and i felt i could push it farther so started mixing lizards with humans and bats and got the above creature
designed an athletic body long agile legs for running, feet like a ostrich which are the best long distance runners in the world and controlled by a big ligament
settled on this idea showing an aggressive bird creature with bone spurs
disliked the path i was heading down so started designing a character with large bird eyes to see well and a beak for eating roots
started to combine the 2 to see what i got
started with a mandrill and a bat
