Hey all, I had a question for you converters out there, I want to make a Seer Council and Farseer on jetbikes. Now my options as I can see them are plastic bash a few of the eldar plastic kits with jetbikes, I was thinking the Dire Avengers box, or I could mount them on Hellion Wing boards. May I get some opionions from the expereinced modelers out their, or maybe an option I didn't think of. Thank you for your help.

Anti grav platform + Farseer/warlock = profit

You could even try Migsula's approach to a farseer on jetbike. He has done it so the bike is seemingly "floating" behind the rider. Check it out for yourself:

That's how I did my JetSeer! Apart from I used the platform from the vibrocannon.
There was talk of someone on Dakka casting resin "Space Elf Cavalry" models that could be easily proxied in. I'm still waiting for those, I'd pay good money for more Jetlocks.

I used the eldar jetbike guardian legs, and one arm/hand to hold the handlebars. The other arm, the torso, and the head then are from plastic wood elf glade riders. Put it all together and it works well. Plus the glade riders are armed with spears and swords, double win.

I will post pictures soon, but what I did was take a warlock and cut him at the waist. I had some extra guardian jet bike legs. So, I glued the two pieces together. Then, I one of the small titans from apocolypse and since I wasn't going to use i, took the shoulders off and used them as well. I put those shoulder pieces under the jetbike to make wider 'wings'. If you have extra bits around, or just use a bit of greenstuff under the jetbike like I did and you can have a specialty bike as well as a warlock on the bike. The idea of putting the models on top of the gun platforms is really cool too. You can also try using the screechers? from WH Fantasy (Chaos I think) and stand them on the back of them. It all depends on what kind of theme you want. I can provide pictures and instructions if anyone is willing to post an article for me on how to make a warlock actually sit on a modified jetbike.
