#tusken raiders

[furious-blueberry0]

Ok but what if I made the Tusken more based off the Bedouines and actual human beings instead of the weird alien/racist thing that goes in canon?

Look I really like Anakin, but I also don't think that Palpatine had to work too hard to get him to fall.

Palpatine magnified Anakin's frustration with/distrust in the Jedi, but that's just it. He only worked with what was already there.

Anakin was just like that™. He wasn't an inherently *evil* person, and I think he is very good at heart, but he had massively obvious egotistical and selfish tendencies.

Anakin's whole thing was that he wanted to have his cake and eat it too.

He was understandably traumatised by his life as a slave, but he also kind of just refused to try and accept or understand the Jedi's teachings on attachment and emotional regulation. And accepted what Palpatine said because it suited him more.

The Council were 100% right to tell Qui-Gon that this kid was both too old and that his emotions were all over the place (and more than expected for even a kid like him. I absolutely think Anakin would have slaughtered the Tusken Raiders without any kind of external dark side influence in his life).

He didn't have to stay and be a Jedi once he fell in love with Padmé. Obi-Wan would still have been his friend/brother figure. And Anakin wouldn't have fallen into poverty, he could have easily found work and been just as technically powerful and famous, if not more.

But he thought/knew he was special, so didn't think it should matter that he broke the rules. He wanted the prestige of being a Jedi master and wanted to be with Padmé, so that's what he did.

He wasn't a perfect cinnamon roll that Palpatine managed to sink his claws into. He already fundamentally disagreed with the Jedi, but was too self-absorbed to just leave.

Tusken Jedi Star Wars OC

Sometime forever ago I saw @symeona 's Tusken redesigns. At the same time I had the idea of a lightsaber that looks like a black light.

First try I gave up on bc two light sources were too intimidating :) Then I decided to redo the entire thing and now I actually like some parts of the original outfit better than the second...

i had a dream last night that everyone was making memes that were essentially different variations of this

like. the things from star wars.

Casual camp fire talks.

If you look close there’s a little sleeping Grogu in Din’s lap. Mastiffs are also quite jelly bean shaped

Din being soft, and respectful as fuck towards indigenous culture.

I completely understand if it wouldn’t be possible, but maybe if you want could you draw Rr’aghh’r doing an Akira bike slide on their bantha?

Insane

I fuckin knew it *gaderffii sharpening sounds*

He took this really shaky video that looks like it’s been recorded with a microwave, and it’s just sand, some banthas in the distance and lots of excited yelling

I'm just so sure that Ezra would be able to befriend Tusken Raiders the way Boba or Din did, or at least their massiffs

Oh boy here I go turning my obsessions into Homestuck AGAIN

Yup this is a thing now, I decided, they're also all from Tatooine because that's the planet I'm currently obsessed with.

John is a Twi'lek, and on Tatooine, yeah, if you're familiar with Star Wars you already know he's a slave. He lives in Jabbas palace ready to help with laborial tasks, like murder, theft and anything else a crime boss would want.

Jade is a Jawa, a funny little creature that likes messing around with technology she finds. Though more of a creative type than a haggler, if her circle is selling you a droid chances are it's actually functioning as intended.

Dave is a Tusken Raider, yeah, this design is definitely the least recognizable as either Dave or a Tusken, but that is what Tusken children dress like. Anyway considering that Tuskens are only considered "grown up" after slaying a fucking dragon I feel like the upbringing was similar enough.

R0-S3, or just "Esthree" is a modified protocol droid, specifically modified with a head covering that purpose is unknown to most, but appears to prevent the ever prevalent memory-wipe, at least in any significant fashion.
