Here is my attempt to put my MoTF on a bike with a conversion beamer. The bike and fig where bits purchases from warstore and left overs from other models. The gun is from an oooold transformer micromaster guy that was half chewed up by a cat. Enjoy

Left side with toolbox to help counter the gun's weight and I just like the idea of a non servo having MoTF having to carry one around.

looks good but needs servo arms, its a mechanical trade mark of 40k

I love the giant gun, and the servo arms would be a good idea

1500 vs 1500 -40k
2500 vs 2500 -fantasy

But don't put the servo arms on the rider. Put them on the bike. That would be awesome

I can totally picture the bike punching someone with the servo arm as he drives by.

Of all the mistakes you have made, the best are yet to come.

not so keen on the gun myself - not the idea, just the style of the weapon - looks too manga.

But the idea of 4 servo arms on the bike - cool!

I will try find it - if i can - there was a cool Doc-Oc inspired conversion for MotF - with him using his 4 cable servo arms to walk and the other 4 on his back bristling with electro-death!

Master of the Forge with a Conversion Beam doesn't get servo arms, they're traded for the gun. However it will let you switch between the two, maybe magnetize the gun and the servo arms.

Have you considered adding wiring or more 40K Imperium tech to the gun. Sort of this was once the pinacle of technology but to mate it to the bike alot of work had to be done.

The only problem is of course is that it might feel too "Ork Looter" rather then dogmatic following of the teachings in of the STC.

By the 1000 whispers of Slaanesh we call to them,
By the 12 plagues of Nurgle we fell their enemies,
And by the mighty axe of Khorne we cut open the world for them!

I did look into my bitz and found an old lascannon marine backpack that I am currently putting on the rider, its not all that attached yet but perhaps some greenstuff down the line.

Partial paints no priming since I don't have any at the moment and its been raining off and on for a week so its humid as heck here.

nononono must prime, big MUST even if you hand paint black all over the model atleast. and if you had some green stuff you could make cables and join the gun up to the backpack nicely
