Super Detailing Star Wars Speeder Bike ROTJ

Have been working on this one along side of the snow speeder, decided to do some more work to it.

Most of the underside detail will be covered but still had to do it.

again on this build a bunch of watch parts and model parts from the parts boxes...the challenge that will come with this kit is the horribly molded or should i say engineered figure for the bike, losts of gap filling and putty but its coming along....

Thank you TD4438. I did a little bit more to it yesterday some plumbing and started on the wiring. Its sad that most of all of this will be covered and will have to actually look for the detail when its done.

Barry,

 Thank you, yes there is a lot to do on the top side and the figure has a mile of seam lines to get filled, sanded, and puttied as well. Hope to keep the motivation up to finish this one and the snowspeeder from the other thread before getting involved with another overly detailed build!!!

this is wonderful. I have one speeder and was given another. I have already cut the Scout up and plan to make his joints from putty to get him to fit, and Ill do what I can to make it more accurate. I have  Don Post helmet here in the house now, not the best reference but closer to what is molded on the AMT kit. 

 

If you aren't having fun, you're doing it wrong! Build to please yourself and they will flame you every time!
