Two Wheels and Nasty

[randy_ditton]

Hi Mike, Thank you for commenting and good eye on the seat. The Revell chopper kit is the only other bike kit I have. Thought I could use more of it in this build but so far just the seat and the disc brake rotors.


Hello Terry, Thanks again for the nice words


Continueing to build up the electrical system ....

Making up some throttle cables.....

Going to use the kit casting for the radiator.....

Finishing up the wiring harness....

The bio fuel that powers this baby needs boost to up performance....

Fuel tank...

Finishing up the plumbling.....

Almost to the fun part, Building some GUNS!!!


Thanks for looking, Randy

WOW!! That's extra cool, Randy! I have several extra chopper seats, if you'll PM me your address, I'll send you a replacement so you can build the other kit!!

 

[randy_ditton]

Thanks Terry! I appreicate the time you take to always comment

Hi Mike, Glad you like it so far! Thank you for the kind offer and pm is on the way.

Finally have an update....


Working on the guns, going with a ball mounted over and under set for the front end......

Making up some ammo, chucking brass brads into the poor man's lathe.....

Need a CPU for fire control and aiming and a laser sight.....

Some shots to show where I'm at so far, everything is tacked in place to check progress...

As always, thanks for looking ! Randy

Randy that is just cool beyond description. Now I'm picking up new ideas.

[randy_ditton]

Thanks you guys, Nice to get the encouragement

Decided to work on a small dio base for the bike....


After checking out Per Olav's Master Class posting on the use of foam as a building material....

Using acrylics for paint and got some spackle....

Using cardstock as a base for the doors...

The idea here is the lone scout out on patrol in an old abandoned part of town. He breaks down and as he is working on the bike the bad guys are creeping in, maybe over the roof. We will see if I can come up with the figs to pull this off.

As always, comments are welcome................Randy

 

[Iron Mike]

OK, Randy, where did you get the big thumb to photograph by that building?? :laugh: Everything is looking incredible!!

 

[moon puppy]

This is incredible. That bike looks like it could be Leonard Smalls ride.

 

[mlp]

WOW, that looks great

 

[Sherman 18]

[Sharkmouth]

Now this is real imaginational, inspirational, sensational, holy-crap-I-can't-think-of-a-compliment-ational build!

Hear your phone ringing? It's George Lucas, and he wants you to save his next movie with some great modeling!
