Subject: Space Marine Bikes - Crimson Fists BIKES ARE DONE!
Here is an update to my army. I really haven't painted much as of late, I am enjoying the nice weather, etc. I really underestimated the effort it would take to paint 7 bikers. But really when you think about it, painting one bike is pretty much equivilant to painting 2 space marines. So when one bike+biker is complete it pretty much takes me the same time as it would 3 space marines.... Just giving you guys a heads up if this is on your project list...
Not a huge fan of the 30 seconds of fluff before seeing the models, but hey, it's your production! They're nicely painted, I won't disagree. However, what really stands out to me is that you did a very good job of lining the two halves of the bike together - with many other models this would be a backhanded compliment at best, but with bikes it's amazing to see that seam smoothed out. Looking forward to seeing them with riders!
ARGH! Flickr... can't see it through the firewall! Mind loading to the dakka gallery?
Ahhh, okay, finally got to see the youtube at home. Very very nice, Cat. Love 'em and they'll look even better with riders.
