Trouble on Tatooine?
Based on some obscure concept art from the Force Awakens. It started off as this really cool idea for a powerful skiff that would be the dune-sea equivalent of a whaling longboat. Instead of the kitbash speeder, I was going to include (and still may eventually) a large star-wars-y version of a sand skink locked in a desparate fight with a harpoon bolt. However, I kind of fell out of love with the skiff partway through. I was happy with the rear shaping and with the front engines but the middle portion just didn't connect them in a satisfying manner. I decided I was far enough along that I should just finish it, and here we are!
Now its just a boring old pirate skiff like all of the other landspeeders (and also like the intention of the concept art--see my other comments about the sequal trilogy...) I did my best to make the shaping seem somewhat logical but it is missing the smooth front curves of the art. Closeup of the kitbash speeder can be found here.
