OTHER LANDSPEEDERS

[GEEK1138]

Wassup guys...so, an interesting little project has come my way...create a Jawa garage/workshop for the repair of Landspeeders etc. All to be modelled and built in 1/6.
Obviously we've seen their handywork on Luke's speeder and they are clearly not qualified mechanics, so plenty of bits and speeder parts all over the place.

There is, of course, another cannon speeder, apart from the X-34...the V-35. There are a coupla pics of it in Tunisia but it obviously didn't make it in to the final cut;

So I have started by modelling this and will do a couple of other 'concept' cars to populate the garage;

I would think Jawas would have a place they stripped speeders over a repair garage! Sounds interesting though.

That sounds like a really fun project. You can bits and pieces of all kinds of things in the garage. Don't forget the Snow Speeders were modified speeders (they had trouble adapting them to the cold) so pieces of them could pop up too.

That model looks great, awesome job! I remember having one of these in Star Wars Galaxies, they were such cool speeders.

There is also one moving by the screen in one of the first shots of Mos Eisley in ANH. And there's the one in the background of the Lars' garage, too, of course.

Cool project for sure and a great add-on to the iconic landspeeder.

Thanks guys...so here is another speeder that is more of a concept car.
I found the image online and liked the look of it;

Has a very `Art-Deco` feel to it

The V-35 was supposedly a "family" speeder, which I assume meant it was a people-hauler like a minivan or station wagon. But seeing it actually driven by a person, it's much smaller than I expected. I can't see how you'd cram people in that front "window" area!

V-35 Courier/Legends

The V-35 Courier was a reliable, inexpensive landspeeder produced by the SoroSuub Corporation several decades before the Battle of Yavin. The SoroSuub V-35 Courier landspeeder was designed as a family vehicle, capable of carrying three humanoids and featured a large cargo space behind the seats...

This was a generic civillian speeder in the Clone Wars, Star Wars: Rebels and The Bad Batch.

A lot of concept art props and vehicles ended up in Dave Faloni's Clone Wars and Rebels. He was a hardcore fan before working on them. That's one of the coolest things about the show. The original Storm Trooper concept armor ended up being used in Rebels as training armor at the academy. So many easter eggs for the truly obsessed! GEEK1138 Excellent work as always. I truly envy your work... it's both scary and inspiring...

 

[GEEK1138]

Actually, there is another landspeeder that is OT timeline...the landspeeder from The Mandalorian.
Clearly, heavily based on the beloved X-34, I really like what they've done with it to make it a 4 people carrier and the cute little scooter windshield;

The rear looks a lot like the back end of the '66 Batmobile too;

 

[GEEK1138]

OK, found a bit of time to continue this project now that the Sail Barge is done...
Got all the parts printed and glued together...L to R - X-34, Mando, Clone, V-35...now the fun begins!

 

[GEEK1138]

First one off the production line is...Mando Speeder. Such a shame this wasn't used more, it's a great looking vehicle

 

[Halliwax]

Really cool thread!!!

 

[GEEK1138]

OK another one bites the dust...this time it's a colour variant of the familiar X-34 with a few added bits. I assumed because there was a bonnet line that it could be lifted to work on the engine...

 

[GEEK1138]

V-35 is done also...sorry the pics are so crap quality...am waiting on a new phone

 

[GEEK1138]

And finally...RGC-15, the retro speeder
