Well, I have been working on this for a couple of weeks (on & off) As I an going to need about 20 of thse for both of my PH armies, I decided to make a kind of 'Kit' for the current Marine bike
Here is the First bike, I still need to clean up some mould lines, but its pretty much there.
Also if you cut the wings of the Dark Angel icons from the DA sprue, they fit perfectly either side of the fron section ! (pics of that later)
Onto some pics
Cheers,

The simple design of the turbine is very effective, I'm excited to see how these turn out.

I think it looks cool but the "honda goldwing" looking engine in the front combined w/the turbine out the back is a big oxymoron for me being a licensed aircraft mechanic. You did do some awsome scratch building, I'd be proud of it.

These are nice bikes.
Have you considered "Rough Ridering" some?

Coolest ones were the EC bikes in the Horus Heresy Visions of War artbook IMO.

Nice job. It looks though like the vertical stab. is quite thick. Maybe it is the picture, but I would try to make it about half as thick... It will be a really great theme once you are done with them...
Pls keep us posted.
