This is a wonderful build. I can see a Star Wars 3.75" figure comfortably seated on that speeder bike and getting ready to take off on a recon mission! Thanks for the inspiration.
Hey, not everyone gets assigned a Force speeder bike. Sometimes they have to make their own...lol. I've had the idea for a while to make a Speeder bike "biker club" where every rider has their own speeder in their own style, and this would fit right in parked outside the cantina. Awesome work for a time crunch build. Heck, for any timeframe build. A+
Just wanted to leave a quick thanks for the inspiration! I needed an object fo add some life to a diorama I want to build this weekend, and something similar to a speeder bike of a Wipeout racer is just what the doctor ordered!
It is cool as always with your builds and this one is truely a Star Wars speeder bike for the peeps that can't afford one I love it... Great build there my friend
You'd is a great job on your speeder bike I love it your a 👍 👌 modeler again greatjob keep up the great work 👍 😀 have a wonderful and great day be safe
@@BPCustomCreations No problem. That speeder bike looks cool. I wished that when I was a kid & had a lot of the figures that I would have been smart enough to make my own lil vehicles for them like you've done here.
This was really neat, thanks so much for sharing. I was surfing YT contemplating a 1/6 Speeder Bike build to compliment a HT figure and your video gave a lot of great ideas.
Was randomly looking for some inspiration for my diy handmade miniature speeder bike and here I am… I found the perfect place 🤩, now a subscriber on UA-cam and your follower on Instagram 😇
I'm glad someone got something out of that! It almost got cut out of the final edit because I thought it was too simple to warrant being in the video. It's the kind of thing I only catch on camera because I have no plan going in and just leave the camera rolling 🤣
may the 4th be with you my friend. you are way to hard on yourself. I'm a big fan of the 3 original released films episodes 4 5 6. I'm mind blown again. you took bits of nothing and turned it into a wicked piece of art. definitely looks like it belongs in a star wars movie on a desert like planet. super cool love it
Thanks Neil! I can't tell you how many times I've seen the original trilogy 😂 it took me long enough to get a start wars build together. I'll have to dedicate more than a day or two to one in the future
@@BPCustomCreations I've watched the trilogy more times than any other movies other than maybe the 1986 transformers movie. the other star wars movies are ok but nothing like the original 3 movies
That is pretty cool. I recently made my first model. A security drone. Anyway just wanted to say you're an inspiration. And quite the artist. I think my next model will be something along this line. Thanks for sharing.
What a nice surprise to see this upload today. Didn't know this one was coming. Not being a Star Wars aficionado - though I have seen a few of the movies - I had to Google this particular piece of equipment... Boom. You nailed it! That was a speed build for a speeder bike. Crunch time! That was a great base too. I want to wake up tomorrow with your imagination and your skills. Just dreaming though. Happy May 4th and may the .... you know. 🍁😂👍👊
Thanks Andrew! You're too kind as always 😂 start a build at 10pm and get to the primer stage in one sitting and you'll feel the "inspiration" too lol. I can't believe you aren't more familiar with Star Wars! I was obsessed as a kid
OH! I totally missed this one. Nice build! It almost looks to scale with my astromech. I'm guessing an old Star Wars figure would probably look to scale with your speeder bike as well...on purpose or happy accident (unconsciously driven to it?).
Thanks! I did think of that but the whole size was determined by the bottle I used as the base. Everything got added on from there to match the scale. I don't have any action figures to test it out but it would probably fit the smaller ones
What kind of Paints do you use? I use some Acrylic water based paints. I do end up thinning it with water to get it to lay flat when painting. Do you thin out your paints too or are they naturally thinned? They lay really nice.
It's a line of airbrush "inks" from Holbein called Aeroflash. They are out of production but I love them! I randomly found a box at a second hand shop and bought it on a whim
The paints and brushes are all from the dollar store here in Japan 😅 Some other paints I use are a Holbein brand acrylics from an airbrush line called Aeroflash.
The brown is AMAZING. The bike is soooooo cool! But you need to put a story into it. Like Luke flying away, and Leia runing after and shouting "Go back home, you philandering bastard!" ... Sadly, you are not into figurines...
You win the prize of being the only one to comment on the brown itself! There is white, black, yellow ochre, two different yellows, two reds and something else probably haha I just kept mixing until it looked good. I love having the paint in dropper bottles for convenient mixing!
Also, I'm not into figures, you are right haha. Although I have a project in the works with a figure prominently featured in the composition so we'll see how that goes!
On the remote chance you will find it useful - m.ua-cam.com/video/yoN2m_c-wfY/v-deo.html Not promoting anyone/anything!!! Cant't wait for the next project. Cheers, Ben
Thanks for the caution. We can all be more careful with our crafts. It's good to understand what you are doing and be confident in the safety of whatever method you use 👍

Thank you! I love getting to see other people's stuff too 👍
May the 4th be with you as well
I really like that you're using bits and pieces from household materials and scraps. No need to buy a lot of stuff. And it's looking awesome!
Thank you! It's always fun to see junk come together to make something unrecognizably cool 😁👍
Classic star wars model
May the 4th be with you !!
Very cool , nice work . i think it turned out great . NICEEEEE
Thanks Mike 👍👍

Thank you! That sounds like an interesting idea for sure! I bet you could work all kinds of character into each of the unique speeder bikes.
The weathering looks great on camera - awesome build!
Thank you!

Thank you! It's amazing what you can make out of "nothing" with an idea!
You'd is a great job on your speeder bike I love it your a 👍 👌 modeler again greatjob keep up the great work 👍 😀 have a wonderful and great day be safe
Thank you, Patricia! You have a wonderful day too 😊👍
Your work is full of originality and very cool!!
Thanks!
Looks like a really early model speeder bike🔥 awesome
Thank you! I agree
Looks Pretty cool. I think it fits the Star Wars universe really well. Great job.
Hey thank you so much!

Nice build, would deffo look at home in the Star Wars universe!
Thanks Alan 👍
I've seen a couple of your video's and i love your builds. So far this one is definitely my favorite.
Hey, thanks! I'm glad to hear it 😁👍
Nice speeder bike ! And May the 4th be with you. Great work!
Thank you so much!
I really like the concept of this video, having a deadline and pushing yourself to get it done in time. It creates a fun urgency to the video!
Yeah It is certainly a challenge I don't want to do again any time soon haha. The build was fine, it's the video on a time crunch that gets me.
Cover it up before you cut it… such a simple tip but brilliant, thanks man!
I'm glad someone got something out of that! It almost got cut out of the final edit because I thought it was too simple to warrant being in the video. It's the kind of thing I only catch on camera because I have no plan going in and just leave the camera rolling 🤣
Nice build and painting. That is too cool.
Cheers 😁👍
Nice job on the speeder bike, looks awesome. Maybe put some wire shrink tubing as handle grips for the handle bars , just an idea , but great build 👍
Thank you! The shrink tube idea is great! I'll have to try that sometime thought I don't have any small enough at the moment
BP, spot on, work for your may the 4th! the speeder I feel works well for the star wars verse.
Thank you Quijin! I'm glad to hear that 👍
that came out awesome 🤘 keep these cool builds coming
Thanks man, will do 👍

I love this so much.

I hate foam, it's coarse and rough, and it gets everywhere.
Someone got it!
Please be careful when cutting toward your hand. I almost lost the use of my right finger like that
