28mm Trail Bike WIP
« on: 21 June 2015, 08:34:25 PM »
Inspired by Nigel's (Durutti) excellent bike builds, I thought I'd have a go at one myself.

This is still very much a WIP - I don't have Nigel's vast vehicle-making experience so I am very much learning as I go (and make mistakes).

I thought I'd start with a trail bike, which might be of use for modern/near future gaming, including of course my own Apocalypse Isle project.

As you can see, it still needs some more work, but you get the general idea. The wheels are a mix of resin sections from the resin box van I sell, and spokes from my bits box, the rest is plasticard, wire, brass and milliput, plus a bit of cursing!
