I recently came across u/DrewB222's 1:35 sidecar build from three years back - different unit, different scale, but a strikingly similar reading of what a Guard sidecar should look like. I built my 1:1 Cadian recon bike for regular off-road use with no idea his post existed. He kindly agreed to let me share a few side-by-side comparisons - his original posts are linked below.

Turns out we were tapping into the same lost STC blueprint - just calibrated for different scales.

I’ve always wanted a Astra Militarum / Imperial Guard scout bike, but GW never gave us one, so I kitbashed my own out of bricks.

Then I got a little carried away and made a 1:1 scale "model" too. Naturally, the little guys had to inspect their full-size ride.

Knowing GW, I probably saved money by building the rideable version

Just wanted to share my workspace defenders: a brick kitbashed custom Cadian Psyker Killteam! They’ve taken up a permanent attacking position on top of my smart speaker to keep the Warp (and procrastination) at bay while I work. I’m really happy with how the Commissar and the Psyker’s staff turned out - it’s great motivation to have the Guard watching over my setup. For the Emperor!
