I'm starting to like 3d kitbashing a lot though I must say that plastic,card & glue gives quicker & readily visible results.

Thank you for your comments

Off course.

The base model is free & made by Sevenunited ( Thingyverse). He makes great models + terrain , which is mostly free.

I had to mod it as it top part is WH40k like, so I used Ghamak's not Votann jetbikes ( not free ).

These https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-gold-hunters-256122 (https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-gold-hunters-256122)

Specifically ,the top part + light lens + the engines. A lot of slice here & there + repair had to be done to get the desired look.

I plan to do bigger versions next. Perhaps using KMFP speeders.

This should help.
