Enzephalon Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Hey guys, I have some spare time and decided to post a little tutorial for how I did my Attack bikes: What do you need? -> 1 Set of three Ravenwing Bikers http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/...dId=prod1060240 -> 2 bits of a Predator which are normally attached to the back of the top mounted weapon. There are two options on the sprue so these should be easy to get a hold of. -> Two Rhino doors. But if you own a Predator, Vindicator or Baal Predator you will probably have some spare ones. -> Little greenstuff. Don't be scared. Only minor skills are necessary. -> Bit from the man-hole on top of the tanks. -> Rhino gunner and Multimelta All the other bits are part of the kit Take three bits of cut sprue. The length should equal the straight edges of the Rhino door. Glue them on. http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/6/10/232878_md-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/6/10/232879_md-.JPG Then immidiately glue on the spare windshield from the Ravenwing kit. Make sure that you have a smooth transition between the sprue on the side and the windshield. http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/6/10/232880_md-.JPG Fill the holes on the edges with green stuff. http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/6/10/232884_md-.JPG Cut the exhaust of the bike as shown in the picture. http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/6/10/232882_md-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/6/10/232883_md-.JPG Cut the spare base in the middle and attach one half to the base of your bike as shown in the picture. Smoothen out the transition with green stuff. http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/6/10/232885_md-.JPG Cut the shaft of the front tire as shown. This is an optional step. I wanted to elongate the shaft. http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/6/10/232886_md-.JPG Cut one edge of the Landspeeder door so that it becomes symmetrical and fill the holes with green stuff. http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/6/10/232887_md-.JPG Cut some Q-tips and use them to elongate the shaft up to the size you like. 1/3 of an inch in my case. I attached the elongations with greenstuff. http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/6/10/232903_md-.JPG Glue the Predator bit to the back of the Rhino door http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/6/10/232904_md-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/6/10/232905_md-.JPG Glue on one of the two spare tires to the side of the bike, and this exhaust like looking bit. http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/6/10/232909_md-.JPG Glue on the Landspeeder door and the eagle if you like. http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/6/10/232910_md-.JPG Cut the foot plate as seen here. Attach it to the bike. http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/6/10/232912_md-.JPG Cut the bit from the manhole in half and glue on half inside the wagon. http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/6/10/232906_md-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/6/10/232911_md-.JPG Glue on the front tire the driver and the gunner and you will end up with this. I forgot to take a picture with the base attached. http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/5/17/222665_md-.JPG Well. That was my tutorial. If you like it leave a comment.

Myxx Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I do like it! Very cool, what helmets are those? They look like the scout bikers from Star Wars... My only critique would be that the front of the side-car looks like those Rhino-door-teeth might be dragging a bit...

Chapter Master Ignis Domus Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 It looks pretty good, though it seems a bit too expensive to end up with two attack bikes.

I'll probably switch them for marine helmets. As for the teeth. The front tire is now attached in another angle, which lifts the bike higher above the ground. This is an old picture. It looks even better with the base.

One of these gives you two attack bikes for 32 Euro. http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/...dId=prod1060240 Two regular Attack bikes cost you 45 Euro. This is a 30% discount. You save 13 Euro.

Chapter Master Ignis Domus Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Don't forget the other bits. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/231734-build-two-attack-bikes-out-of-one-ravenwing-biker-kit/#findComment-2788375 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enzephalon Posted June 10, 2011 Author Share Posted June 10, 2011 Don't forget the other bits. ;) This is the only bit you really have to buy, but it's very likely that you can trade it with someone. http://www.bitzbox.co.uk/product_info.php/...ator-box-p-3192 But hey... No one has to use this tutorial.
