Someones been building! My favorite, perhaps predictably, is the Firebrand.
Great shape all over. I like the flag piece near the rear.
I'm not that crazy about the Thanatos but I admire all the teal you were
able to use. My favorite part of this is definitely the Bionicle mask. It
adds a nice comic book menace to the bike. I imagine seeing the bike bearing
down on you with its headlight eyes glowing. I must say I don't really like
plastic wheels on these bikes though. I just like the feel of the rubber.
Last, I really like the Blizzard. I think you've pulled off a pretty
ambitious color scheme with this one. (This is coming from someone who
doesn't like white very much.) The sand red goes well with the white and
great with the light blue windscreen.
Cool.
While I'm at it I also wanna say I like how you provide story AND building
notes for the many of the models on your page. I think this is a *great*
feature. I really get tired of some pages that have pages of story but don't
provide any insights into the building process. When my page was up I went
all over the board between story and building notes. Some models had a
story, while others just had building info. I admire the distinction between
the two that you use for many of the models on your page .
When I put my page up again I'm going ot have to use a similar format.
Keep it up.
