Here is my 'commander's chariot' that i have been working on. I guess it would count as a land speeder or something (I dont play, just model) but it is my first scratch creation.
The bike is puppet's war hussar bike, that just came in the mail today. It will be towing the chariot, which will have an as-yet-undecided figure riding in it. Sorry for the cell phone pics,
but I look forward to any comments you guys have. Good, bad, ideas, whatever, let me know!! So far I have been building greco/roman inspired ultra-marines

Interesting project. I've never seen a precedent for it in the fluff, but as a pure modelling project it shows quite a bit of promise. I'm interested in seeing how this progresses. Keep us posted!

so far i cant really visualize how it will look finished, but the chariot looks great for a scratchbuild!

I really want to get alot of motion conveyed with the bike and the chariot. Hopefully it comes off as I have it pictured, without detracting from the figure too much. Im still unsure if I want a solid arm connecting them or just 2 cables. Thanks for the replies and encouragement! I will update in a new thread whenever I get some more done.

I could see Minotaurs doing this.
Awesome build, hope it turns out as cool as I'm envisioning it.

Speaking of minotaurs I was kind of thinking of using that new FW figure with the spear (moloc?) SOOO expensive tho!
