The lost trooper

Filed under the Phytomantic Codex, Section TK

Codex ID: PHYT-TK-421

Classification: Living diorama

Status: Active, unstable

Annotations: An imagining of what may have befallen a hapless storm trooper on Endor in the hours or days after the war against the empire was over. This terrarium channels life magic and a small amount of death magic, while the figure is made of plastic, the intent of the creator was to show death, allowing the pathways of mana to be open. Sometimes intent is what it takes.

Artists note: This is one of the most temperamental terrariums in my collection and it is due to be rebuilt. It is my first attempt at building a living diorama and using silicone based adhesives. On rebuild, I would focus more on natural adhesives like mud to adhere bark to the back wall. The only successful plants in this terrarium is moss as everything else has died a very slow death, I did not appropriately handle moisture retention. I made this early on in my terrarium building career and I have learned a lot since then! This is by far my most popular terrarium, which always goes to show that that artists are never good judges of their own art.
