Wow, beautiful work! They look great

Just a quick note about the Assault Speeders, they are currently not available as I'm planning a refresh of them so that they're even better. So it's going to be a few months before they are available again.

I have a few questions before I get to the praise.
1) can these actually be used or how do you use them
2) Did you buy these models or build them yourself
3) Why do they look so awesome
4) How did you create those bases?

Those models look bad ass, I don't know if you built them or what but they are awesome. I didn't even know squadrons of flying bikes were a thing.

I believe the bases are Secret weapon premade bases.

Its not about the type of weapon, its about how you use it.

That is what I thought, just looking for some confirmation.

Amazing, love jet bikes. These look like quite nice alternatives to the forge world javelin. How much were they?

Thanks! 90% of the work there is yours, however.

Great, now I have to buy another batch. Will I still be able to get parts for the old ones?

1. Of course! I use them to differentiate my RW Command from Black Knights. Some GWs allow them, others don't. I play in house mostly so they're fine- a bit unwieldy and keep falling over, but look great!
2. Custom sculpts by Machinator above, with parts from the Ravenwing Command box set and Dark Angel sprues.
3. Because I customised each one to the hilt And Machinator is an amazing sculptor.
4. Micro Art Studios City Fight bases, with added rubble.

Thanks! It's my unique take

Nope, Micro Art Studios; Secret Weapon are too far away!

Thanks! They were about £14 each including parts and the custom bikes. I like the FW bikes, they are pretty expensive and aren't as unique though- I use them as attack bikes in my army.

Those jet bikes are wicked cool you should definitely get more!
