Impressive conversion!

Looks great - unpainted I can see how the parts go together.

Nice job on the bike...different enough to be unique but similar enough to tie in with the rest of the project.

...of course, I don't condone the use of those Void bikes for conversions...I have been painstakingly trawling E-bay for years to build up enough to put together a 'cavalry' force...

You don't want to know what I've done with two of the three riders then....

Cheers guys, really pleased with this, just need to finish it off then I can move to moto two

Last little play tonight, added ammo belts from the chainguns to the bike,

A few more plasti-rod sections in the spaces left in the engine block section and a clean up of the green stuff and that's about it.

Will give it a final wet and dry going over for the last few mould lines before undercoating.

Cheers

I've been a fan of that Void bike for years! That's a cracking conversion too.

I really like this. I think this actually looks much better than the actual film version, as IMO the idea of the bike looking like a terminator skeleton was waaaaay too cartoony, and you've actually dodged that pretty well while keeping the "early SkyNet" Look of the film.

I know that's kind of the opposite of what you were actually going for, but it looks great precisely because of that IMO. I hope that doesn't come off as a left-handed compliment: I really like what you've done.

Not at all mate cheers, reading through the artwork book, the design team in the end wanted to play down the whole terminator on a bike thing, much like the aerostats and hydrobots and moto-terminators: why should terminators designed for air recon, water and fast road pursuit look human, skynet's niche evolution works with me.

Cheers

Cool.

Yeah, that was pretty much my thoughts: useform robots for different jobs is the natural way SkyNet would go. The Termies only look anthro because their mission profile calls for it.

It did seem to me the bikes looked different on screen than they do in the concept art, but I never got a really good look while watching the movie, and the only pics I've ever found online have been the anthro-bike version you posted earlier. I did notice the harvester definitely looks way different in the film than it does in the commonly circulated art: the art uses a lot of scaled up T-800 parts cut-and-pasted together, but the on screen version is definitely it's own design.

I rather liked most of the early SkyNet hardware in the film. IMO it did a good job of looking like earlier, less advanced generations of the T1/T2 stuff. For some reason I particularly fell in love with the big proto-HK defense towers guarding the VLA and the factory complex (that, and the hydrobots' point cloud vision). Are you planning on doing some of those? I've had a hard time finding pics of them online, does the "Art Of" book show them at all?

The book is well worht getting, lovely full panel concept, airbrush and digital shots of everything. Perfect reference for any project.

Using toy T1's as tracked HK's and one of the resin tracked HK's f(sideshow's) from the Terminator/T2 future scenes. Will have a go at hydrobots at some stage, also looking at some of the Terminator salvation xbox game only Terminators (GZG should have some useful stuff).

Cheers

talking about "Not in the Movie" Terminators,will you also do some early Skynet Stuff like the T-350/400? (from the Dawn of Fate Game)

Probably T-7T's from the salvation game as I think Ground Zero Games has 15mm walker drones that are perfect for the job.

Those I know but not what gzg has that could be used for it...
