GLD Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Pretty much as the title says... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v646/GLD1/libbyonbike2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v646/GLD1/libbyonbike1.jpg I have used one of the GW metal librarians, cut off at the waste (there was a lot of swearing and sawing involved!!!). I used a standard bike with Ravenwing fairings, as well as the Ravenwing Book and Ravenwing robed legs. I sculpted a very basic cloak using green-stuff, as the original robe was only on the one side of his body. I have used a metal White Scar shoulder pad, and will add some animal pelts before painting it...

Sgt. Aardappel Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Nice! I especially like the book, it'll look great painted! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/213226-wip-white-scars-librarian-on-bike/#findComment-2537044 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubernator Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 For me the book looks too big. Aside from that, the conversion is pretty neat ;) Reminds me somewhat of mine, excluding the conversions as mine was nice and simple :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/213226-wip-white-scars-librarian-on-bike/#findComment-2537064 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Sensei Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 All perfect except that book in front, seems really out of place and draws far too much attention. In doubt, keep things simple. Of course, my 2 cp and I see some other valuable opinions here.

W.A.Rorie Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 While cool the book is way too big.....great job none the less Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/213226-wip-white-scars-librarian-on-bike/#findComment-2537088 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassWave Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 It pretty good. Personally I don't see what people are saying about the book for a couple reasons. 1. It is a book for a super human so its size has to be adjusted accordingly. Big person=Big Book ;) 2. He's going to be reading it for spells and such while driving right? Wouldn't you want a book with large print to make it easier to read while you are driving 100 mph? Just my .02 in your defense :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/213226-wip-white-scars-librarian-on-bike/#findComment-2538298 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLD Posted October 17, 2010 Author Share Posted October 17, 2010 Haha thanks for the support! I had no idea how big the book was - I was expecting it to be around the size of the bike's fender, anyway it is a bit bigger than that! Despite that, I figured he is delivering the word of the emperor to the enemies so why not have a big book - we'll see how it goes once it's all painted!!

sword brethren Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 i very much like it and the book does not bother me at all, the thing that is missing for me is the fact he is a white scar, there isnt alot of nomadic/hunterness about him. to be honest the white scarryness can be brought out by paint so it s minor thing but either way, great conversion. looking forward to seeing it painted.

GLD Posted October 18, 2010 Author Share Posted October 18, 2010 Agreed - I will probably add some of the smaller wolf pelts to it to make it a bit rougher, and paint will indeed help a lot... I am still yet to decide on the colour scheme - either a blue bike and blue rider (my least favourite idea); blue bike and white rider (possible); white bike and blue rider (2nd favourite) or white bike and white rider with maybe one blue arm (my favourite at the moment...) So we'll see - I won't get round to painting him for a week or two...

Brother__Paulius Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Looking good. Book looks fine to me. I think he needs a moustache. That would give him that iconic White Scars look as well as those pelts you've mentioned. Very nice conversion so far, just needs those finishing touches and some paint to really set it off. I look forward to seeing him finished. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/213226-wip-white-scars-librarian-on-bike/#findComment-2539579 Share on other sites More sharing options...

sword brethren Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 i third the mustache! i like the blue are idea, maybe a small plate on the bike in blue, like its his personal librarian bike, just something to think about if you like it. keep it up :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/213226-wip-white-scars-librarian-on-bike/#findComment-2541255 Share on other sites More sharing options...
