Custom Star Wars Landspeeders
« on: March 06, 2010, 12:29:07 AM »
Hey all,

I've started a blog to show off some of my miniatures and side projects. 

The first few updates feature some custom Star Wars landspeeders that I kit-bashed.  Here's a couple photos, there are lots more on the blog. 8)

Marvellous, extraordinary work.  :o

I'm particularly fascinated with the last one (the "dremelized" Batmobile).  :-*

Those are really nice. I've never heard of Galoob Action Fleet models but I might have to get some. Beats trying to build speeders from shampoo bottles and old phones and really cocking it up/giving up half way through (which is my normal technique)!

 lol lol

How dare he play with a dremel, when there's a sculpting tool to be used  :o

I shall join in with the praise for the batmobile conversion. Looks great, as do the others, but that one really stands out.
So many projects..... so little time.......

Ha ha!  You need not worry, these were all made a couple years ago, I'm just getting around to showing them off here.  ;)  I promise I've been hard at work on WarGods!   8)

Since you guys like these, I'll show off some more.  Here's the next one -- the Mon Calamari Ferrari!



I've posted more pictures of this one, as well as a 'how-to' on my blog:

The Force is strong with you.
Looks like I need to look at doing some kit-bashing of my own...I find 1:43 scale diecasts work well for minis.
Great work, very inspiring!
