Nice. Very nice.

I am very familiar with Jake James. That dude knows how to customize and army build.

Love your Adventure people/Jawa Rover, and all your other vehicles for that matter. Nice work on all! I used the Adventure people land speed racer often as a ship for my kenner figures when I was a kid. You have inspired me to dig out my adventure people bin, I haven't seen them in many years.

That's a creative idea to expand the vehicle pool. I totally buy it as a Jawa transport. I can also see Ugnaughts using something like that.

Ok, so this isn't a typical custom vehicle per se but I just installed lighting in my Sail Barge. And for $10, its not half bad and I didn't have to disassemble of damage it in any way. I can video posted on the the tube.

Inspiration goes to Jake Jakes after I saw a repaint of this Adventure People rover. It works great for a Jawa vehicle. Although Adventure people were 3 3/4", they were very narrow and this vehicle was even tight fit for them. I couldn't really get a full size figure in it but its perfect for Jawa that aren't fortunate enough to have a Sandcrawler.

That turned out really well, I can see these being perfect for the Jawas and can see several of these fitting inside the Sandcrawler, driving off the ramps and fetching parts scavenged from areas the Sandcrawler can't get close enough to like in tight ravines in the deserts of Tatooine.

Was saving this post for awhile. So this project was one I did back in 2016-2017 and its one I'll likely never top. Finally decided to make a video as well. Rex's modded AT-TE from Rebels

Wow so awesome. I can't imagine how many kits you would sell if you offered this one up.

You really blew my mind when I watched your video on YouTube! I completely forgot it was you, so I'm glad to find your video here, too! I asked for permission to share it here, but no need to do so! Your build looks fantastic! I think you captured every little detail from the show! This is the first time I saw someone do this. Man, what a cool project!

Cobb Vanth Speeder.  Me and a friend picked up a cheap Anakin podracer at a con and each of us took a half. Just finished mine. Couldn't quite make out some details about this vehicle from screen grabs. There's a lot going on around the seat and controls. I wasn't worried about getting super accurate. Control sticks were from a CW animated clone that had a big quad gun that flips over from a backpack. Seemed pretty close. Foot pads were from a POTF2 Speeder bike. I have a box of various junk parts and I used a lot of that stuff. The hook for his helmet was a cotter pin where the rounded end was just the right size to allow the helmet to lock on. Overall happy how it came out.

That turned out great! Inspired build. And I agree with you that "screen accurate" isn't really always necessary. I really like this.
