So, im going to take a White Scars commander and turn him into Korosarro Khan. Im wanting todo something out there with his moondrakkon. I want to make it look like a motorcyle kinda like a crotch rocket. I want it to look alittle futureistic, any ideas?

**ChaosismyAntidrug**

sounds like a good idea. The motorcycle that most screams "future" to me is the motor cycle from akira.

Other than that Read the book "snow Crash" by Neil Stephenson there is a motorcycle described in there that is the coolest thing ever. I would describe it here but I would just screw it up so if you want to find out about it you are gonna have to read the book

Gunner,
Any image search for Akira Bike will get you a ton of photos

It doesn't look like a crotch rocket, but it is awesome.

Here's a link to a bunch of 1/24 motorcycle models you can chop up--ten bucks each, but nice, 1/35 is closer to 28mm size but 1/24
isn't really too too big, especially if you want it to be khan

There are some 1/32 scale but the quality of the model is much lower, which makes me think it would be harder to chop up.

Anyway here's a link to the whole section in ebay, you can choose different scales in the sidebar on the left and see what you can find.

Good luck!
