"But I was going into Tosche Station to pick up some power converters!" Luke Skywalker

In this project I'd like to give the chance to Luke to finally pick up some power converters from Tosche Station. I tried to catch the interior look based on the behind the scene photos and footage as reference for the sizes, shapes, colors as accurately as possible.

"Tosche Station was a power and distribution station located outside the town of Anchorhead on Tatooine. It was the power source of a number of surrounding cities, via dozens of sturdy underground cables. It stocked useful supplies for the local moisture farmers such as power converters. The station also provided services such as vehicle repairs and equipment recharging.

The station was named after its owner Merl Tosche, who rarely visited. Tosche's frequent absence meant that the station was usually managed by Laze "Fixer" Loneozner. As a result, it became a popular gathering place for local youths such as Luke Skywalker and Biggs Darklighter. Fixer spent most of his time at Tosche Station working on building an illegal podracer from spare parts, which he then planned to sell in Mos Espa to earn money for his wedding with his girlfriend Camie.

Shortly before the Battle of Yavin, Luke came to Tosche Station to tell Biggs that he saw a battle taking place above Tatooine, and was subsequently ridiculed.

Tosche Station was supposed to appear in Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, but was cut from the film. The scene was, however, released in the deleted scenes of the special features of the Blu-Ray release of the original trilogy."
