- The end of The Empire Strikes Back gives us a ton of interesting Rebel Mystery Ships. But this one is maybe the most simple. Could there be an interesting story behind this strange Rebel Mystery Ship?

I can’t wait to see a full remake of the original scene with all the ships but with all your ships instead! You have almost done everyone now! Love it!
I would love to see a remastered OT with modern CGI. A modern volumetric Death Star explosion! It is a shame people didn't redo that scene yet.
Oooh
Imagine it turning up in a flashback to the battle of Endor. Perhaps have the flashback in Mandalorian.
Certainly would be awesome to see. Maybe one day with enough fan support EC might get the opportunity to undertake such a massive undertaking. He's certainly well on his way with all the fleet ships he's doing.
@@robertgould1345 doubt it unfortunately
Always a good day when EC Henry creates a new rebel ship
A great day, an amazing day, A GLORIOUS DAY!!!
Sure is, and right on time too. I've been logged out of my google account for days because my computer died and I'm lazy. I got back on 5 minutes ago and the timing couldn't be better.
I’d say it’s more discovering it and giving it a proper intro as if it’s always been that way. And of course nothing but excellent work from E.C.
Not a new ship. It was already there.
Indeed!
Nothing gets clicked faster than a newly discovered ship by EC henry
You're absolutley right!
Oddly that's true. I clicked and didn't even realize it was brand new until I saw ur comment haha
True
Indeed
And think of all the vessels they put in
Those renders of the landed ship have a real Ralph McQuarrie feel to them. Amazing work.
Cheers!
I noticed that too. Hes captured his style so well!
@@shanoncg cheers
He faked everything and didn't drive.
maybe he's related XD.
You've created enough ship renders and lore to fill out a role-play sourcebook, and it would be a gorgeous book if you made it!
I'd love to see an Edge of the Empire book with EC's ships!
@@Kepora1 Agreed! Would be sick to include stats compatible with D6, D12, FFG, Pathfinder, etc.. in one book on top of all the art and lore.
@@Kepora1 I'm surprised that lazy illustrators haven't tried to take his designs like they did those fanmade Mon Cal designs from the quick frankly awful Mutiny at Mon Cala and Hope Dies arc. Would've been better to stick with the standard MC80 variants we saw in the film along with the MC75 from Rogue One and the MC40 and MC30 designs from X-wing.
honestly if Starwars wants ot start rebuilding its fan base they should hire EC Henry to build up fan support.
@@MrChickennugget360 EH might not have the followers that SW is looking for, but he and his crew have the skill and passion that attract people to a good story that compliments its visuals. EC would be a great asset to screen or page!
I love how much depth and plausibility you add to these ships, even ones as simple and unremarkable as this. Seriously stellar work!
Great backstory. I love that you created it as a mobile command center and an infiltration craft. Not every vehicle in a war has to go in guns blazing. The ability to hide an intelligence asset like that in plain sight is priceless. Great story telling man.
Your interpretations and deep understanding of Star Wars' visual language are some of my favorite takes on Star Wars I've ever come across.
yes!
Your. "You're" is an abbreviation of "you are".
It's really not that hard.
@@OrdinaryLatvian Damn, imagine being this petty over an excited fan with an honest compliment
@@OrdinaryLatvian you realize this is the internet and no one actually truly cares about grammar and punctuation right?
@@Kolonol1 Do you only shower when you're meeting someone you like? I don't see how the absence of a teacher grading you should mean you devolve into communicating like a neanderthal.
Mr. Ec Henry is an extremely valuable asset.
This kind of ship reminds me the tugs that are often seen passing through the river here in the city where i live, it is funny to see a small, compact vessel pushing like 8 pontoons that more than double its length, and are also full of cargo.
What a brilliant fleshout. The little freightpod that could. So many stories, so many modifications that could be made. While a Fondor Haulcraft blazes onto the Imps radar, these little guys keep on going. Bravo EC! Well done!
Love this channel. Always a joy to see you create new ships that would fit right into the Star Wars universe.
fancy meeting you here
Now we just need an empire at war mod with his ships in it.
Awesome story. I could imagine there being an entire novel series on the exploits of Captain Shua and his crew.
Do iiiiit
How about an audio drama with the cast of the Sojourn.
good idea, but FURRY ALERT! FURRY ALERT!
@@mysteriumxarxes3990 There's no mention of any of the crew being furry. Unless one of them was a Bothan. They're furry.
@@raenfox Im talking about you
I love the story behind the Cyclops-7. Almost immediately makes it my favorite ship.
What funny timing, I just rewatched all EC's Found Ship videos last night and was hoping a new one would be out soon.
Love the description. This ship makes more sense as a modular cargo tug than the Millenium Falcon to some degree. Too bad you weren’t doing this 25 years ago, you so could have filled a West End Games Adventure Guide all by yourself.
they are both similar. Both have an off set cockpit. I imagine that the Falcon is intended for smaller loads that need faster transport.
You always lure me with the design & bag me with the lore. I'm not even mad - too busy loving your work. Whatever you're doing gets awesome results, so keep it up EC-Henry!
C'mon, you made a ship, and then you added an entire rebel movement of freighter captains to fold into the Rebel-Alliance, all to justify a blurry blob among a sea of other blobs & some recognizable starships. As someone who enjoys thinking up this sort of stuff myself I can understand how rare these moment can be & how much work goes into these fantastic few minutes... yet every time you release a video like this I'm mentally staggered by your concise delivery of a mountain of semi-original content.
To top it off, somehow the way you do this is inspiring. Honour & thanks to you for your service to all who love Star Wars, EC-Henry.
Your videos alone have revitalized my interest in the original trilogy immensly
It looks like the front escape pod from the pre clone wars era republic cruiser.
Heck could even see that as part of the lore, "Hey what are we going to do with all these small transport and search and rescue ships now that the wars over?" "I don't know, think we could toss some cargo into some pods and sell them on the civilian market?" This is what basically happened with the Jeep after WW2.
I thought it resembled an enlarged escape pod.
The apparent scale doesn't match, but it looks like what I imagine a simple short range ship to ship shuttle a fleet like that might use.
gosh darn it EC... ya did it again! Another PHENOMENAL ship with the best back story!!! I cannot wait for more!!! please please PLEASE keep up your amazing work!!!
This is absolutely my favorite backstory you’ve come up with for one of these ships. I don’t think I could pick a favorite out of the ships themselves, but Captain Shua and the Cyclops VII are absolutely deserving of a long form story
I'd like to see like a deckplan for these ships just to get perspective of how all the areas connect together.
I just wish I understood how you get such detailed ships and greeblies without it taking years to make a single model.
I would like to see EC Henry or someone else recreate this scene now that all the background ships have been resurrected and fleshed out.
Edit: I made this comment before I saw the end of the video, Ok I can wait a bit longer. It’s worth the wait.
He implied that there are yet more. The scene will have to wait. For now....
@@SephirothRyu I made this comment before I saw the end of the video. Yeah I can wait because it would worth it.
I absolutely love how deep and true to the Canon lore your worldbuilding for these fan made ships is.
Woo, EC Henry time!
Great model, it really captures the feel of early rebel ships. Your story for it is fascinating, and those paintings are amazing!
At this point, it wouldn't surprise me if you created a detailed ship out of a piece of shrapnel, complete with intricate lore and years of backstory, lol.
Heck, E.C. doesn't even need shrapnel, it could be a mere camera smudge in a 3 second shot of Rebel ships and he could give you a detailed history/backstory, a design lineage as well as a fully realized set of deck plans!
This is awesome! After watching most of your videos on these obscure ships I wish someone at Disney is watching with the power to incorporate your designs and stories into canon. This is gold. Even if they don't make it into official canon, your designs and stories are now part of my head canon.
I'm never not amazed at how much these renders look like photographs of plastic and resin models. I'd love to see a tutorial from you or your collaborators on the technique.
You might want to join the patreon for that.
So now you’ve done 3 ships I wish I had a set of cutaways/deck plans for. The YX-950, B-wing mk 2, and this little gem.
Since it has been about a year have you or anyone else made a set of accurate deck plans for the ship. This one is my favorite by far!
Dude... you are quite simply next level with this shit. I cannot get over not just how much work you put into this, but in how plausible and engaging the end result is! I'm in complete awe.
Finally, another EC Henry video, year off to a good start.
All of this from two cups glued together and rolled in greeblies.
Simply masterful.
What a cool backstory! I want this crew to appear in the next Andor season.
Hell yeah! Love these "Secret" rebel ships. Your work on adding more ships to the star wars lore has been astounding and is fully supported by myself.
Fantastic, as always. It amazes me every time how much you can put together from the tiniest images or bits of information.
Thank you!
Incredibly creative, thank you for this. Your ability to weave a new story, believably, into existing canon is stellar.
Just came across your channel. Love seeing videos like this where you add something new to the Star Wars universe and add a full context around it to where it feels like it just naturally fits. It's awesome just how large that universe is and how it allows us to put our own stuff in it without throwing the existing stories off.
Another outstanding work!
I especially love the simple rocket-like shape and the modularity.
Also another Reason for Captain Shuua to defect to the rebellion: The Empire also loved to assimilate or seize the assets of smaller companies (see Cloud City), so they have an economic concern to fight against the Empire aswell.
At some point, people are going to expect you to recreate that Ep5 Rebel fleet fly-by scene. You've done at least most of the ships now. Also Kudos on adding character models.
Do it!
I can't think of any other reason he'd be trying to do every single ship from a background matte LOL
You have no idea how much I love these. Great work with yet another Rebel mystery ship!
The ministory you made for this what is essentially a fan ship was already better than the sequel trilogy.
Another fantastically imaginative video! This story you’ve created fits so seamlessly into cannon and all of your visual material is as impressive as any canon creations. Bravo 👏.
A new EC Henry ship video always brightens our day, thanks man!
Really enjoying the expansion into fully rendered scenes with characters and interiors! Love your work!
Your renders are always impressive, but it's your rich, fully developed backstories that keep me coming back.
Hey EC, have you considered doing a full narrative video on an existing design that you really like, I personally think that you are a good storyteller and that the video would do well.
That's kinda what he did in the Original X-wing design video, sorry if you've already seen it.
@@nguyenten6877
I was thinking something more well known like the now legends Dreadnought class heavy cruiser or the dp20 corvette.
Wow! This guy has a incredible grasp of the Starwars universe.
Your work is truly inspiring EC Henry, every model and every frame looks absolutely immaculate
It's really cool that you highlight these little known ships. The OT established thousands of different types of ships, some civilian, some Alliance vessels.
Amazing what can be done with a fuzzy image of a little hunk of plastic in a 40 year old film. Awesome stuff! And one of the coolest back stories you've done yet.
This design is so infinitely variable, I love it. Also, the story you picked was brilliant. I really wish I could use it for my stories.
Might be my favorite one of these simply because of how much it reminds me of like a Star Wars version of a classic rocket ship design. I especially love the cockpit placement.
Amazing how EC Henry can add so much personality and depth to a background ship that is essentially just a cylindrical shipping container with thrusters and a cockpit on it.
Those 3D renders looks incredible. You captured the original trilogy look perfectly I'm actually blown away.
cheers
It strikes me that we often get distracted by the wonderful ships yiu and your colleagues and collaborators come up with because your work always creates such wonderfully detailed ships, that we often forget how incredibly good you all are at developing the lore behind the craft. Such a great idea and one that's so versatile it could be used in multiple settings outside SW. 👏👏👏👏👏
EC Henry out here making better lore and designs in a few minutes than Disney has in nearly a decade.
The modular design aspect alone just grounds the design in an extraordinary functional feel. Well done!
I love your content. You put so much work into it. Thank you, for making this video!
I would love to see a tv show about every single one of your story’s for each ship
As a child who loved both Star Wars and Star Trek and collected the Micro Machine ships, since the ships were what first pulled me in to both, I used to take random household objects and make them into the enemy of the day, and what you do scratches that itch for new and imaginative ship designs from franchises I’ve loved my whole life, keep up the good work!
Really like your thought process behind these videos and how much continuity you've maintained between not only the aesthetic, but the function of these crafts. For instance, I love that the cockpit module looks to not only be ejected, but also swapped out for more specified tech.
Good job! 🌵👽
Wow you really breathed life into this random background ship that wasn’t even a model. And weaved an amazing tapestry of lore and depth to it. I would while heartedly read, listen to or watch this!!
EC Henry, another amazing ship!! I admire so much how you can take the smallest ship in the background and flesh it out, then shine light on it for us all to admire. I love the model and I also love the backstory of this ship. It is now in my head canon! Please keep up the stellar work, good sir!! I cannot wait until the next one. :-)
The amount of work for this video is crazy!! You're very talented!!
Honoring the work of the greatest special effects wizards of all time with outstanding work as always
Fantastic job on exteriors, interiors and character art.
You should recreate the original RotJ scene with all of your models in the background
That would be nuts.
I am constantly blown away by your attention to detail and ability to pull these fully realized stories from the fog of obscurity. thank you for giving us this opportunity to learn more about the small stories of the Alliance
0:01 I keep finding myself coming back to this channel for this content
I love how you make stories for all of these ships!
I always love your ship designs and the stories behind them.
I’m curious if you’ll ever do a similar thing for blasters, I know especially in the comics there are a lot of interesting blasters that I’ve never seen that look really cool. I remembered recently reading the dark empire comics and I noticed a really cool blaster that’s either based on the M1 Garand or the M14.
Wow what an incredible design! I love how these designs are great designs but also always super unique, not just designs that serve traditional roles of spaceships
All this inspired by a silly pod looking ship. Brilliant work EC Henry
LETS GO NEW EC HENRY STUFF! Best channel on TH-cam, always excited too see new content
How many more can you do EC? I swear I thought you did them all!!
I think there's at least three remaining from ESB but EC indicates there is more. Heck, there's this weird box ship under the Sphaerolana I've never been able to identity myself. Plus the Nebulon-B variants, at least 2, I've spotted.
The only channel that gets me to stop what I'm doing when I see a notification.
EC Henry gives me back always the real star wars feeling as i had as child in the early 90s. This channell gives me everything, what disney never will.
It's always a great day when a new EC Henry mystery ship video pops up!
Tbh, I want more EC Henry custom ships. Pick a shape(or several) greeble it, give it form and a function, weapons and a backstory 😊
Wow! You created a really interesting concept here, only out of a picture of a little piece of paper! Now I want one of these ships! 😅👍
These videos are some of my favorite content on youtube. Well done, man.
Once you've combed through every shot for obscure vessels to flesh out it would be cool to make a final video of a detailed view of the full 'canon' and on-screen rebel fleet we see in the OT.
I can see one being outfitted with a large central turbolaser like a tank destroyer
The front of the pod opens up and you hear the voice of Erik King, "Suprise mother-" before your bridge has a turbolaser sized hole in it.
Holy crap, I think this is my new favourite star wars ship. It reminds me of a converted space truck. I would totally choose this as my bounty hunting ship when starting up business. Think of the potential you could do with all that space. And that cockpit is one of the best of not the best. I would feel so powerful flying it. Well done.
Great contributions to the mythos. Thank you for sharing your art and creativity. :)
It's like the escape pod's beefier older brother!
Incredible work as always
Your channel is fantastic, man. Best Star Wars lore in TH-cam. Keep up the good work.
Now I finally have the canonical parts I need to make a Star Wars dridgible. Thanks EC!!
Once there is every model of that scene, will you consider recreating it?
Bro imagine all these ships as irl models
Wow, so many great incredible designs, based off of the classic star wars aesthetic, all easily deserving a place in canon
Im always waiting for these vids! Thank you @EC Henry !
If you truly do run out of unknown vehicles from the Original Trilogy, why not try the Prequels?
They're might be a hidden gem you never knew was there until a closer look during a re-watch.
Maybe
True, think of all those ships over Coruscant in TPM and AOTC. And the ships over Mos Eisley in ANH. Then we can have fun in the Sequels -- the ships over Hosnian Prime and on Takodana.
@@ShannonCarter55 Or anything during the Battle of Coruscant in ROTS.
@@Iron_Blood_Enjoyer1933 weren't there just Venators, , Recusants, Munificents, Providences and Lucrehulks plus Vultures, Tris, ARC-170s, V-wings, Actis interceptors? Or are we counting the additional ones from that Star Tours footage?
This man is single-handedly doing more Star Wars world building than the entire Disney Sequel Trilogy, and then some
That's a pretty low bar.
This ship looks like some one salvaged front lower part of the Consular-class cruiser ship (which normally acts as an escape pod) and converted the escape pod into a regular space ship.
OK, with the amount of work you put into this, I vote it should be in Star Wars canon.
ok, now how long before Disney steal this ship design, character and backstory with not even so much as a hint of creddit to EC Henry?
would love to see some of the ships in thrawn revenge mod and imperial reign mod for empire at war
I'm with you on that one.
I see a post by Henry and I can’t click fast enough to watch.
Always something interesting to learn here!
Very cool. Now I want to read a novel about this entire crew you just created.
