[Landspeeder][Cat A] - Furiosa

[Inconspicuous]

Hey everyone,

I'm back from a long hiatus to bring you my latest creation... Furiosa!

Dex Brando may only be a student at the prestigious Coruscant Engineering Academy, but his custom speeder modifications have already raised (and singed) a few eyebrows. Here, he demonstrates his latest creation - Furiosa - powered by twin onyx-ion fuel cells of questionable legality and attached to an aerodynamic chassis that was salvaged from the scrap yards in a high-end sector, or so we are told. Dex plans to pilot this landspeeder in an upcoming student vehicle racing competition. No doubt that Dex has a bright future in store - if he can graduate without getting arrested first!

This landspeeder was a ton of fun to create, and posed some great building technique challenges. I'm particularly proud of the cockpit design - like any good racing vehicle, there is ample shoulder support for those tight turns!

Thanks for taking a look! I welcome any feedback you might have.

This looks very nice! I especially like the detailed front.

great design!

a question: the "utensil zip line handle" (30229) you used as speeder controls... are attached only to the minifig hands, right?

Yes, that's right - good spotting! I really liked the way they looked as steering handles, and this "floating" attachment also made it easier to fit the other cockpit controls.

Great look and design! The back of the speeder is fantastic. The front has good texturing and the cockpit is nice. The orange bottles just give the impression of being a very capable speeder!
