501st Commando Posted February 17, 2010 With the Turbo Tank coming out this summer it gave me the idea to build a BARC speeder, so here it is. Main pic. The nose. The back. The side. The bottom. Next to the TLC one. My MOC is just a few studs longer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CloneCommanderDelta7 Posted February 17, 2010 ...Next to the TLC one. My MOC is just a few studs longer... And undeniably better! That is one masterpiece, even if it isn't the most complex. Best BARC I've seen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted February 17, 2010 Your speeder has a better rear section on it, a like more true to shape I think. Anyway great work '501st Commando' and I'm a conformist! ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prateek Posted February 17, 2010 Very nice! Good use of unconventional techniques Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickus Posted February 17, 2010 Very nice, much better than the LEGO version. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RileyC Posted February 18, 2010 You have used some really different techniques on the speeder but I think a bit of dark red could make it a whole lot better. Keep up the good work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CommanderFox Posted February 18, 2010 A fantastic BARC 501st Commando! You have used some really nice techniques there! I like how you've put the battle droid arms as foot holds when the trooper gets down. The rear is really nice. but I think a bit of dark red could make it a whole lot better. Agreed!

501st Commando Posted February 18, 2010 Thanks for the comments everyone. I would have added more dark red, but I didn't have any 1x1 dark red tiles to put dark red where needed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big Cam Posted February 19, 2010 Not bad, it reminds me of a speeder bike mixed with a Freeco speeder, and Dooku's speeder. Very cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Meleca Posted February 21, 2010 amazing, congratulations! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legostein Posted February 21, 2010 Hello! A pretty nice speeder bike. However, I am not so fond of the clip/clip-connections you used by cklicking a clip plate into a clip tile. I would have used the relatively new 1x2 plate with handle. Cheers, ~ Christopher Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Commander_Rob Posted February 21, 2010 Looks very nice, though the 2x1 tiles for the fins seem a little plain to me, maybe those would look better with the printed tiles from the MINI X-Wing (in case you have that). Other than that, great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Loganwan Posted February 25, 2010 I think your speeder looks fantastic. I like seeing these built with fairly generic pieces so you could build up an army of them without having to buy a lot of specific sets. Nice work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
