Wraith Lord on Vyper Bike (picture heavy)

[Dark Seraphim]

Hey all,

Here is a little thing I thought up about a week ago, a Wraith Lord, riding a Vyper Jetbike...

Enjoy

Still noget sure if I should use both the sword and the spear, or just one. I\'ve fitted magnets untill I descide.

Still a few things missing, banners on the back, the spear hilt and a bit on the seat.

Have you thought about lengthening the rear of the jetbike to accommodate his
\"Shiny metal ass\" ?

 

[Undave]

Surely it would be a smooth boney ass lol

Spear, definently the spear. Oh, and I\'m thinking that something else, or painted, then the glass canopy. Maybe drop down the height to give the front end a more smoother arc/feel to it. Minicing the jetbikes hood. Or if you really wish to \"stay ahead of the curve\" model the bike like the next version (more of a crouch rocket, see warseer.com)
But this is just M2C, so do what you like.

Update!

Couple of updates

The spear has gotten a makeover, and been made to resemble a snake.

I\'ve added a backside, using varrious gothic eldar ship parts. I hope it helps.

The last picture, is to show how it will look when combined with the wraith lords seat.

Still thinking about cutting it down, so the canapy isn\'t so high... as suggested, but not sure werther to do it or not...

Enjoy

EDIT:

Looking good.
But.... I like the concept on the spear, but add some mass to the back end (looks a little wimpy). Some bits and bobs for a \"power source\" and to balance, visionally and physically the business end. As for the canopy, is it glued in place? If not try moving it forward so that the toes line up with the curve (a an inch or so?). That with the canopy painted over may give the look that I was thinking originally. This may require that you add on to the hood as well, covering the open space between the hood and the handlebars, so I\'m not sure if this will be an oppsion for you. The thinking on this is that it will make the bike bigger that the average viper (because the rider is bigger) and will balance the model out even more. Still looking a little heavy in the back.
Again this is M2C, so you can take it or leave it as you please.
But so far I\'m really liking it, so please keep us updated.

here acouple of pics of what I was thinking.

1. moved hood forward
2. added this bit (ok, copied and pasted)
3. the hard part. cut out the canopy and rotated it CC a couple of degrees to get the \"flow\" of the hood \"right\"
M2C

Looking really good so far, not sure if i like the sleeker look, i thought it looked good in its original state, the boxer non angular front countered how ass heavy it looked and with it slimmed down it might look to ass heavy. What colors are you going to paint it? or haven\'t thought about it yet, would look great samm-hiem imo.
