Randy D Posted February 13, 2011 Posted February 13, 2011 Hi Folks, First post on the forum, kind of a bat cycle meets zombie stomper bike. Started with one of Tamiya's 1/12th scale bike kits that I got out of the LHS bargin bin. Will use the motor and some of the smaller parts from the kit. Got some cool tires from the R/C car department and some really heavy duty chain!! Will attempt to post this much, more to come.....Randy
Randy D Posted February 13, 2011 Author Posted February 13, 2011 Part II , Making up some small details.... Making up some fenders...
Randy D Posted February 13, 2011 Author Posted February 13, 2011 (edited) Part III..... That is all for now, will post some more tommorrow. Always feel free to comment! Thanks, Randy Edited February 13, 2011 by Randy D
Dragline Posted February 13, 2011 Posted February 13, 2011 Absolutely TWISTED build. This is a good thing. The details are just right as well. I'm watching Bob
diymirage Posted February 13, 2011 Posted February 13, 2011 looks good id love to hear more about the way you build those fenders
Jantrix Posted February 13, 2011 Posted February 13, 2011 Whoa! Man, I'm digging this. Fantastic work.
Randy D Posted February 13, 2011 Author Posted February 13, 2011 Thank you to all that commented, it is cool to get feedback! Diymirage, I use really thin styrene, .005 clear stuff from evergreen. Cut it oversized and it tends to shrink itself to the form as it heats. Really crude method but it works for simple shapes. More pics, working on the kit supplied radiator and a bio boost fuel system and all the plumbing...
Dr. Cranky Posted February 13, 2011 Posted February 13, 2011 Randy, there are some 12 inch Zombie figures that would go really well with this! Great job.
Randy D Posted February 16, 2011 Author Posted February 16, 2011 Thanks for commenting Rinseman! Need to put some guns on this one!!
Randy D Posted February 16, 2011 Author Posted February 16, 2011 Need to make up the fire control C.P.U., a laser sight, and make up cables for everything..
Dr. Cranky Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 Fabulous scratch-building. I love this bike!
Randy D Posted February 16, 2011 Author Posted February 16, 2011 Here is where we stand now ..... As always, thanks for looking in ! Randy
LAone Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 this thing is flipping nuts! incredible attention to detail and the idea looks fun as well.
made007 Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 man thats what i love to see, badass all the way, zombies arent safe with cranky and you out there,
Guest JamesDE Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 That is amazing scratchbuilding skills right there!! Nice work on this one....
gunner Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 Holy Cow!! Where did you get this idea? This is one of the wildest builds I have ever seen and it is absolutely top notch stuff.
trogdor Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 Amazing scratch building. I especially like how you did the linked ammo. No tracer tips ? I guess when SHTF you probably wouldn't want them
