nearly done
all talk of fetishes aside the scouts done im doing little bits n bobs like a tree trunk n a six legged lizard to fill the desert a little the wooden base for the whole thing has to be done now that the majority of the fun stuffs done im running out of steam, i think the next project will be a space wolf terminator you must be using the force to turn me to the \"wolf side\"lol

That sounds like a great idea! I really admire your sculpting, the best I ever produced with milliput was cobble stoned walls, but this scout biker is worlds better than that lol. Great work - I cannot wait to see it complete.

feel free to have a go,the only advice i would give you is to make the bike taller, mine seems to be a refugee from american chopper bit of a harley low rider theme still desert conditions you need a low profile cruiser. will try and knock up a radio in the next few days. the lizard has had the dremmell treatment and is now ready for paint

Some excellent sculpting there cassar, in particular the sniper. The weathering also is not over or \'under\' done either, its just right. I have no sculpting experience myself, but two things bug me a little (probably too late now, but for future reference). 1 - the wheels seem too small in proportion to the rest of the bike. I know GW aren\'t very proportional with their own minis, but it looks strange IMO. Also, though the anatomy on the scout is largely correct, his six pack looks a bit odd, more like out of a comic strip than a real body. (Maybe you did this intentionally?)
Of course take this with a pinch of salt, as I have no sculpting experience myself.
Cheers.

cheers for the comments darkwind i dont know what age you are myself im 41 and retired, you are never too old. re the wheels i agree the problem being i work in a different scale the wheels are from an old lego set that was in the loft for years really i should have gone smaller with the bike and made it taller still ive learned a lot in the process. as for the physique and the six pack i was going for extreme musculature to indicate the process of transformation from human to super human space marine.
again as for the sculpting i started about two years ago when i retired it gave me something to do, give it a go we are all on the learning curve so get your climbing gear on.
