If the Imperial Guard had bikes..

Posted by

messyart –

I like to be short and sweet, and like to totally screw up the concept.
So, I want to make an off-road 'ting for my IG, as rough riders.

Now.. I've been pondering the idea of making something nice and poseable and trying to re-produce it..
Which brings me to as terrible issue.

I suck when I have a choice. I need suggestions, bikes/ quads thrown at me, peoples preferences put on the table so I can make a better choice when it comes to shape and style.

I *want* to make a pair of generic legs to fit it, too. Of course, it's all just ideas for now, I have things to be doing as is.
I just like to have things planned

Or, if anyone would like to doodle things for it..

Any help?

Only in destroying my idea <3

but yea, in a way.
I don't know if you remember an old WD issue where they featured some nicely converted dirt bikes.
but I am thinking of less of a futuristic thing.

Also might want to look at these:

Ramshackle Games: Bike Quad, male legs

Ramshackle Games: Bike Scrambler, male legs

Ramshackle Games: Bike Wasteland Cruiser, male legs

£2.50 a each, which is pretty good I think. Hands with handlebars are extra but pretty cheap, see: this this and this.

There are lots of other manufacturers out their doing bikes but I reckon these fit what you're after quite well.

They're bloody nice, but they're all just a bit.. big.

Thanks, though. Nice to have something to aim for :3
