Truescale Bikers Done!

Not much to say here that hasn't been said before - these are Forgeworld Outriders which I truescaled and designed alternative wheels for.

They look great even though the paint job is very much rushed, I have so many other things going on. Oh, and these models are the first I used my new airbrush for. I airbrushed the metallics and the reds on the bikes. Didn't work out that well and I did a lot of touching up with a normal brush, but once I get better at using it, I'm sure things will get easier.

The bases are Secret Weapon Miniatures resin. They 1) look awesome, and 2) are large enough to fit these supersized bikes. However, they only have one design of this exact size. I added bits to the bases and that helped hide the fact that the bases are identical. More than that, positioning the models in an arbitrary way instead of dead center broke the symmetry and went a long way. They also look more unruly, active, and that's a plus for bikers.

Enjoy!
