Hey all, I have been itching to do a scratch-build/kit-bash for a while. After searching around the internet for some inspiration I found some studio promo art from the Solo movie. It was artwork for a Enfys Nest speeder bike.
I found a couple additional pics, then John Simmons sent me a link to a maquette he built based on the same art, this totally sent my project in a different direction and gave me a ton of new ideas on how to build it.
Not much to show at this point, mostly just the front fairing done. I don’t like the width of the fairing and I think the styrene is too thick, so tonight I am going to sit down and try it in some thinner styrene and play with the thickness a bit.
Overall though, excited about this build! I will be taking a little creative license with it, but the feel will be the same…
