- how to combine warthogs with land speeders -

the most important part in this conversion is the the following one, which is the seatsection, taken from a land speeder. simply cut this part, at the green line ….

but the legs are still too long. so to make the warthogs floor fit, we need to cut them even with the chassis lower edge…

than they should look like this:

now that the seats are done, let’s continue with the running-gear: as you can see in the next image there are three cylindric elements on the floorplate. those we’ll need to get rid off, otherwise we won’t be able to fit the modified upper part in, properly.

on the next pic, you can see the floorsection attached to the uppersection, that contains the seats. bellow that you can see the running-gear, that should fit into the gap below the seats …

thant’s it … ! … and now,  just to give you some additional impressions, e.g. for size comparison purspose, here are 2 additional pics, with which i’ll end this short, but hopefully helpful article. … 

thanks for reading, BobPanda.
