Attack Bike

I got a gift from Drazilek at the Sons of Seth today.

An attack bike!

Cheers Drazilek.

I eagerly unwrapped it and got my sprues.

Fairly simple, bike on one and side car and extras on the other.
I whipped the bike together then whacked on my biker.

I then glued the arms and whilst they were drying I pushed his hands onto the handlebars to ensure I dont get a repeat of what I call "ghost riding"....

I slapped together my sidecar but stopped before I put the biker on, I glued it to the main bike and I've paused at this stage.

Brum brum, zoom ZOOM!

Ive paused to made it easier for myself to paint him. I think when I paint the bike, Ill paint my other attack bikes, repair them and aim to finish an entire Ravenwing Squadron at once.

I like bikes....

Magnets - Tank and L-Speeder

Hiya

So I have a little time today, so a brief update.
Magnets!!!

Predator

Predator "Aura" - Autocannon and Lascannons.

So I glued the majority of the tank together, I however put magnets in the side hatches, to allow a rhino/predator conversion within seconds.

I have future plans to magnetise the lascannons construction to allow me to adjust it from heavy bolters to lascannons quickly. However, thats for next time ;)

Pop!

Replaced top and you can see the magnet placements.

Hmmm, thats one tasty rhino:

Rhino

Landspeeder
I also took my landspeeder and decided to give it real adaptability, I remade the gunners weapon placement and added a magnet.

I then drilled a hole in the weapons and placed a magnets inside each one.

Magnetised Melta

Magnetised Bolter
Close up on magnet and you can see I drilled a hole to make
the attachment look natural, and the magnets hidden.


As you can see, effective, simple and very easy.
So what shall I use today... HB or Melta? :D
