The shaping and the use of hoses are brilliant. I haven't really seen a version of this smaller than the UCS that I have ever liked, but this looks like the closet thing we are going to get to perfection at this scale.
Beautiful!! I've been looking for a 6 stud wide speeder to go with my Mos Eisley moc. I like how the speeder floats on the single pin and vibrates a bit like it does in the movie when Luke jumps off.
I think the light gray was used on C-3PO because of the difference in color between the molded silver and the silver print. On his right leg, they had to compromise and use a small amount of the gold print for his knee cap, which doesn't perfectly match the color of the knee cap on his left leg. The gray print matches the molded plastic much better.
Could you use the 1x1 tiled stud with rod (I totally 100% without a doubt love lego names) for the stickshift? Fantastic model btw honestly I see this being one of if not the best Luke’s landspeeders out there.
Actually, weirdly, no! The older pieces in tan hold really well but the trans clear ones don’t have as much friction so you’ll need to rethink how it’s attached to the base - it’s very odd.
