Speeder Bike (Concept)




by David Coombes

Scale: 1/35

This is a model based on the concept illustrations from the book From Star Wars to Indiana Jones: The Best of the Lucasfilm Archives on page 108. I wanted to do something different and I've always really liked some of the designs from this book.

The model is mainly built from plastic card, aluminiun tubing and brass sheet. The pilot is a 1/35th dragon modern US tank driver. There are some panzer iv tank wheels in there and some zundapp motor bike forks.

I think I did an ok job but next time I'll try to get the green stuff smoother in the sculpting phase as the pilot is a bit rough in places. I always meant to swap the head out for a Hornet one with more expression but I never got around to it.
