Custom Swoop Bike
« on: October 28, 2019, 09:52:06 PM »
So I got sick of the sidecar with my BARC speeder bike not being able to properly seat troopers. As such, I took it apart and used greeblies and fodder to make a Swoop bike.

I agree with Tamer, both vehicles look(ed) great! So you removed the sidecar from the BARC Speeder?
Would you share a picture of both Speeder Bikes next to each other?
I really like the colors you chose for this Swoop Bike! The scratched windshields look realistic, too!
Just an excellent idea to use the sidecar for a completely new vehicle! I also got two of those sidecar speeders in my fodder box...but I haven't decided what to do with them, yet.
Enfys Nest's gang would definitely be one of your customers!
Excellent job on moddin' n paintin'! Much respect for all your work!

Amazing! Thank you for the picture! I really like the AT-RT Driver/Biker Scout mix! And all the parts you added to the Swoop Bike look most excellent, too!
Thanks for sharing! I think your squad of Nationalists would like to add this Swoop Bike to their equipment!
I wonder what you got in mind for the next project...

Haha, no worries friend! I'm thinking of adding some engine flares or exhausts. They seem too bland...

That swoop turned out really well. Great job creating the parts to grow this from a sidecar into its own unique swoop. Really creative!
