Tau Biker

I had this bike in my box, I´m pretty sure it´s from an late-80's RPG called Cyberpunk. At that time the Tau didn´t even exist, today the design of this vehicle is easy to link with the young race aesthetic. Although they don´t use wheels and blahblahblah, it seemed a cool conversion to me, since it could be some kind of mercenary-renegade. In fact, It´s a very mercenary-friendly army and we all know that no sci-fi renegade is complete if he´s not riding a bike. The vehicle was cast in a single piece with the driver, so I had to remove him with a milling cutter and then place the Pathfinder. I thought the long straight line of the Rail Rifle would make the composition more interesting adding a new direction axis.

Very cool. I'd really like to know which series the bike design comes from.
