Darth McMaul vs Adamkin - a fight to the death (in London Docklands!) | |
Adamkin lunges at McMaul. The lightsabre blades are painted wooden broom handles! These will be painted over with a glowing effect in post-production. | |
The acrobatics of Darth McMaul. | |
Adamkin struggles to hold off the attack. The lightsabre handles were designed by Steven McCombe and created by Bryan McCombe from solid aluminium - far better than those cheap plastic ones you can buy in the shops. | |
Darth McMaul - the most evil "man" in the galaxy? The costume was created by Susan McCombe. | |
Adamkin momentarily loses sight of McMaul. | |
We shot these scenes in the early morning of Saturday 22nd January - and it was cold (as usual)! | |
There are some really interesting locations around Docklands - this one in particular stood out. | |
Duelling outside the Millennium Dome. Steve, in his Darth McMaul outfit, got a lot of attention here - people were posing for photographs with him, and children were heard telling their parents "Look, it's Darth Maul! Why is he blue?" | |
Darth McMaul, temporarily disarmed by Adamkin, uses a "force push" to keep his opponent at bay. | |
Towards the end of the day I had some spare time, so went to the top of the monument at Monument Tube Station to grab a few shots of the "Londo City" skyline. |
