Boba Fett escapes the Sarlaac pit in this epic Star Wars art piece!
Big fans of the bounty hunter Boba Fett from Star Wars like to believe that Fett survived the fall into the Sarlaac pit in the film Return of the Jedi. Artist Livio Ramondelli is a fan who also believes this and as such drew an amazing piece that features the moment after Boba Fett has successfully climbed out of the pit.
"Many Star Wars fans feel that Boba Fett couldn't possibly have met his end in the Sarlaac Pit..and I share that sentiment. So, here's my take on how he might have survived- namely by igniting his wrist flamethrower while inside the beast and crawling through the burning ruins. I was trying to capture a sort of shadowy desert sunset feel with the lighting.
Screen purists will note a few liberties I've taken here- For example Jabba's Sail barge was blown to smithereens during the fight that would theoretically take place before this moment..but, I really wanted to include the Barge in the background for scale and so there it is. Also technically the Sarlaac pit is deeper in the ground as depicted in the film, but I wanted to have Fett standing as the Pit and the horizon smoldered behind him."
How do you feel about Boba Fett surviving the Sarlaac pit? Is it a possibility or was the famous bounty digested over a thousand years?
