[MOD] 501st Legion BARC Speeder and AT-RT Upgrade Modifications | Only pieces from 75280

[Wurger49]

Very late in doing these MODs, Australia didn't have any stock for 501st Battle Pack for much of 2021, finally got two 75280s on my hands via a seller in Germany, shipping took ages due to Covid. I rebuilt the BARC Speeder and AT-RT to be more screen accurate and closer to scale. I also started to use Studio to reverse engineer my builds digitally so I can generate instructions.

I have realised that the legs are 3 sections instead of 2, so I have updated the model to reflect that. The laser gun mount has also being updated.

I always enjoy seeing different takes on this set as I also agree that the builds were quite a bit oversized to my taste. I particularly like the shorter BARC Speeders (I kept the 10-slope at the front on mine while trying to shave off some length but they still feel a bit too big) and the feet on the AT-RTs. The only thing that remains to do is see if you can build something with the remaining parts :)
