About the LEGO®

Star Wars™

Design Team

LEGO®

Star Wars™

started in 1999, and we have made new models for the product line every year since then. The LEGO

Star Wars

design team

consists of eight model designers, and four graphic designers. The team is a mix of brand new designers with fresh ideas, and experienced

LEGO

Star Wars

designers with many models under their belts.

This is an ideal team for creating new, innovative LEGO

Star Wars

models, as well as revising and improving previous LEGO

versions of classic and iconic

Star Wars

ships. The focus of our main LEGO

Star Wars

product line is to make cool,

fun, and inspiring LEGO

Star Wars

models for children.

For LEGO Direct we have the opportunity to make even bigger, more challenging, models with

special attention to accuracy and details. These models are fun and exciting to develop, but

also a huge challenge! We always do our very best, and hope you will enjoy building this one.

Happy building!

About the Snowspeeder

The Incom Corporation is best known for its production of the

T-65 X-wing Starﬁghter, but it also produced an airspeeder that

would become one of the main vehicles used by the Alliance during

the Galactic Civil War to Restore the Republic in 3 ABY. T-47

airspeeders, more commonly known as snowspeeders, were used

extensively in the Rebel Alliance stronghold on Hoth, known as

Echo Base. Technicians at Echo Base modiﬁed the snowspeeder to

change the airspeeder, used mainly for industrial cargo transport,

into a light and fast vehicle for both patrol and combat. The glacial

weather on Hoth also forced the Rebel Alliance to adapt the

snowspeeder to function in frigid temperatures for extended lengths

of time. Heaters were added near the drive units, de-icing nozzles

were added to prevent ice forming on control surfaces, and Rebel

technicians also used scavenged Y-wing parts, armour plates, and

reﬁtted cockpit modules to further improve the design and defence

capabilities.

Due to its small size, the snowspeeder had a crew of just two: a pilot

who could handle the speed and manoeuvrability of the airspeeder,

and a gunner to ﬁre the AP/11 dual laser cannons and harpoon gun.

Because the ship lacked shields, armour plating was added to the

hull, and repulsorlift engines were installed to dramatically increase

the speed, enabling the snowspeeder to be fast enough to dodge

weapons ﬁre.

Despite the snowspeeder’s humble creation and patchwork

modiﬁcations, snowspeeder pilots were inventive enough to use

the vehicle to its full potential. When they realised laser ﬁre was

ineective against more advanced Galactic Empire vehicles,

snowspeeder crews used the harpoon gun and tow cables to tie up

the massive legs of the Galactic Empire AT-AT walkers and disable

or bring them down entirely.

T-47 airspeeders also proved useful to the Rebel Alliance forces in

more than just the frigid climate of Hoth. Rebel Alliance technicians

modiﬁed the multi-faceted cargo transport ship into multiple

incarnations besides the snowspeeder. The swampspeeder, for

example, was rebuilt with ﬂotation gear and water-tight seals. Other

variants included the sandspeeder, which was customised with

advanced air ﬁlters to keep out the sand and engine cooling units

to combat the scorching desert sun; and skyspeeders, which had

pressurised cockpits and more powerful repulsorlift engines for

higher altitudes.

Facts/Speciﬁcations

Meet the Model Designer

Q: How many LEGO®

Star Wars™

models have you designed?

A: The UCS snowspeeder will be the ﬁfth LEGO

Star Wars

model

that I have worked on which has been released.

Q: What kind of reference material did you use to begin designing

the snowspeeder?

A: Firstly, I looked at the previous UCS snowspeeder that was

designed back in 2003 to see what inspiration I could take from

that. Secondly, I had various images and ﬁlm stills from our

Star

Wars

books and

Star Wars

: The Empire Strikes Back movie.

Q: How was designing the snowspeeder dierent from your work

on other LEGO

Star Wars

models?

A: I think the main dierence is the level of detail that you can put

into the UCS models. These larger models allow for more complex

building techniques and levels of detail which I personally love

building into the models I work on. My favourite detail in the UCS

snowspeeder was the use of LEGO miniﬁgure ski blades on the

underside to resemble part of the cooling ﬁns. These UCS models

are also meant to look as accurate as possible to the real vehicles.

This means dicult angles or features can become quite tricky to

recreate; the back window of the cockpit was particularly dicult

to build as it slopes in three dierent directions, but also has to

support the hinge connection for the cockpit.

Jordan David Scott

Q: The front of the snowspeeder has an easily recognisable,

angled bow. Was this a challenge to recreate using LEGO bricks?

A: The angles were very tricky to achieve and this was something

I wanted to do dierently from the previous UCS snowspeeder.

Back in 2003 we did not have as many elements that could achieve

this look, and so it was built using angled bricks. Now, thanks to

the miniature ball joints, I was able to achieve a more sleek and

accurate front.

Jordan David Scott

Q: How did you plan the design for the snowspeeder? Did you use

artist sketches or ﬁlm stills to inspire your design of the model?

A: Most of my inspiration came from ﬁlm stills and cross section

illustrations in

Star Wars™

encyclopedias that we have in work, and

use a lot for reference.

Q: There are smaller versions of the snowspeeder in the LEGO®

Star Wars

Battle of Hoth set; how is this larger model similar to

those smaller snowspeeders?

A: I think one thing that is similar even though the sizes are so

dierent is the functionality; the UCS model has several functions

that are similar to the smaller version, for example, the rotating

rear gun and moveable air brakes. These functions make it a more

interesting model and building experience.

Q: As a vehicle used for reconnaissance and defence,

snowspeeders are equipped with both weapons and speed.

How do these elements feature in the ﬁnal design?

A: The high-speed nature of the snowspeeder is apparent in its

compact design, using sharp angles to make it more streamlined;

this was something I was very conscious about whilst designing the

model, by making the underside less bulky and brick heavy. Another

part I wanted to build as accurately as possible were the turbo

lasers, which are designed to slant inwards so that they will focus

ﬁre at a certain point. This was a lot harder to build than I thought

and at ﬁrst glance it might not seem apparent, but they are in fact

built on a very slight angle of about 10-15 degrees.

Q: Is there a speciﬁc feature of the model that you enjoyed

designing the most?

A: I had a lot of fun designing the interior of the cockpit, like the

back-to-back seats and all the small controls surrounding them,

which were challenging to ﬁt inside such a small space but just

added so much detail.

Q: With a rotating rear gun, an opening cockpit, and moveable air

breaks, there are many moving parts to this model. How did you

create the design to ensure stability?

A: All of the moving parts on the model are fairly small builds, which

meant it was easier to stabilise them. I did have some challenges

with the cockpit as the two new window elements that I used to

create it were very large and heavy and we wanted to ensure you

could display it with the cockpit open or closed.

Meet the Graphic Designer

Q: Are these the ﬁrst LEGO®

Star Wars™

miniﬁgures you’ve

designed?

A: No, my ﬁrst miniﬁgure design was the last Naboo Pilot from 2015.

The miniﬁgures for this set are actually mostly existing designs. We

decided to keep them since they are really iconic, whilst improving

them with decorated arms. It was, however, my ﬁrst time designing

miniﬁgure arms.

Q: What do you use to begin designing the decorations for LEGO

Star Wars

miniﬁgures?

A: My very ﬁrst step is to gather all the visual references I have for

the character and try to build the big picture of their looks. Then, I

choose which LEGO colours I will use for the torso, arms, legs and

hands. The next step is to sketch the general shapes of the design,

to translate the look of the character into LEGO style. To ﬁnalise the

design, I go back and forth from the references to the miniﬁgure

sketch until I am satisﬁed, or until I am out of time!

Q: Miniﬁgures are very small, what are some of the challenges in

creating designs that are both detailed and easy to understand?

A: To ensure that the design is full of cool details but still readable, I

start with extra simple and big shapes. Having the right composition

at any time of the design is essential and it is easier to achieve

when you have few elements. From there I will ‘cut down’ these big

shapes to more detailed ones, as you would do while sculpting. The

hard part is to choose the right details in order to really capture

the character’s look or personality!

Marie Sertillanges

Q: What do you use as reference material for designing the

miniﬁgure decos? Film stills? Licensed art?

A: For the old

Star Wars

movies we use mainly ﬁlm stills or photos

from production, directly from LucasFilm. At that time in the ﬁlm

industry, behind the scenes documentation was not as complete

as nowadays, which makes it a bit harder for us to collect all the

accurate references.

Marie Sertillanges

Q: The ﬂight suits worn by the characters in the

Star Wars™

ﬁlms are incredibly detailed. How do you choose which details to

focus on when designing the art for the miniﬁgures?

A: The design of these pilots was made way before I became a

LEGO®Graphic Designer, but I can speak about my general way of

approaching a miniﬁgure. When I design a character, I choose what

makes him/her really special, what deﬁnes him/her. The layering

and materials are important on the Rebel Uniforms, and wrinkles,

for example, can be used to show material qualities as well make a

character less orderly or more dynamic. I always bear in mind that

you cannot and don’t need to draw everything like in real life. Think

of looking at reality through a LEGO ﬁlter.

Q: How do these miniﬁgures compare to others you’ve designed?

A: Most of the miniﬁgures we design are only decorated on torso,

head and legs. Decorating on the arms is only reserved for special

miniﬁgures. I designed both main heroes and secondary characters

like Zev Senesca. Compared to the main heroes, these generic

characters are more challenging to design because you have to look

closer to ﬁnd what dierentiates them from the crowd. To be honest,

I prefer working on side characters as they seem plain at ﬁrst sight

but hold unique stories when I dig deeper.

Meet the Art Director

Q: Have you worked on package design for LEGO®

Star Wars™

before?

A: I started working on LEGO

Star Wars

in 2009 and oddly enough,

my ﬁrst packaging was a set of battle packs with miniﬁgures from

the planet Hoth. Now, six years later, I’m back on Hoth with the

snowspeeder.

Q: What kind of reference material do you use to begin designing

the package art?

A: One of the great things about

Star Wars

is the amount of fan-

based material that is out on the web. I like to scan the internet for

a while to immerse myself in the world of

Star Wars

. Usually the

model has an iconic scene from the movies that I always try to refer

to. Then, while making the packaging, never underestimate the use of

making sound eects while creating the packaging fronts.

Q: The snowspeeder is a

Star Wars

vehicle that features

predominantly in the Battle of Hoth, which takes place in a very

snowy environment. How did you ensure that the white vehicle

stood out from the white environment?

A: Colour, lasers, explosions and smoke! Explosions have made my life

much easier on a number of occasions.

Q: What are the ﬁrst steps you take when you begin the package

design for a new LEGO

Star Wars

set?

A: I always start with the brief to see what the LEGO

Star Wars

product team wants to show. Then I ‘play study’ the model to get a

feel for its potential.

Michael Sion

Q: Are there speciﬁc techniques you use to depict the features and

functions of a particular set on the box art?

A: I invariably struggle with function shots. Luckily, we get the models

in a 3D program so we can rotate them instead of having to go right

to photography. It’s predominantly trying to get across the idea of

cause and eect, for example; showing a set feature that involves

pushing or pulling a section of the model and the resulting action. I

also try to use depth of ﬁeld to de-emphasise the parts of the model

which are only there for context.

Q: What kind of challenges do you face when designing art that

will be speciﬁcally used for packaging design? How is package art

dierent from other forms of design work?

A: Sometimes challenges can be unexpected, for example, there are

times when a model changes during the design so it is important

for us to be ﬂexible with our whole team. Additionally, because we

have LEGO®sets all around the world, once in a while we need to put

dierent translations of words or messages on the packaging which

also alters the design slightly. Our team works well together however,

so any challenges we come across we usually solve quickly, so we are

able to produce something amazing to share with LEGO

Star Wars™

fans everywhere.

Q: When you create packaging art, is your goal to recreate iconic

scenes from the

Star Wars

ﬁlm franchise, or are you more

focused on displaying the unique qualities of the set?

A: First and foremost is the LEGO model, but I try to stay as

authentic to the movies as possible.

Q: Is there a part of the design process that you enjoy most?

A: Beginning any new project is very exciting, and I enjoy the ﬁrst

phases of design the most. Before anything is actually started, all you

have is the potential to make something, and that to me is the part of

the project that is the most fun. Turning over in your head what the

scene can be and how to get it on paper is a creative process that I

can have a lot of fun with, and watching something be created from

the beginning all the way to the end is a fascinating transformation.
