My first work posted here, so feel free to comment. This is for the technical contest for our forums.

I think it looks pretty cool so far, the front end looks a bit square if you know what I mean, like there should be some sort of lower fairing but that is my taste.
Look forward to seeing some pint on it.

MMM looks cool! I dont think the plasma guns work as the assault cannon is big enough, and I think it could use some on the back end of the bike. Plus the wings should be more to the middle.

Wow, great conversion. If only the whole contest presents such high quality, it will be an interesting event.
Very dynamic and well composed. The only suggestion i"d have would be to make the frontal plates more aerodynamic, attached at some angle - this vertical front makes the vehicle look a bit unrealistic or not well designed, and takes some of the feeling of speed from the model.

UPDATE: Sprayed all SCAB RED, and then started painting the bike with a mix of above with BLOOD RED. I still need to speed up, to finish it by the end of the month.

the speeder is original for sure but a bit "clumsy":

maybe it's because the squerish shapes as the base? really don't know... but still want to see in finished

I know that the shape is totally "square", but that was my intention. I wanted to connect with the idea of techpriests - they build devices, as they were built for ten thousand years without any sort of creativity on their part. Hence i wanted to make that impression: "If the shape would be more smooth, than it would fly better but they were always built like this."

Update: Painted all the SCAB/BLOOD Red mixture and aplied black ink.

I know the pictures are blurry (especially the second one) but i don't have time to correct them. My question is the following: do you think I should leave it as it is and go for BLOOD RED highlights, or add a final touch of BLOOD RED and highlight with even brighter tones?

I like juicy reds on the first pic - should contrast realluy nice with metallics so as for me:
I'd leave them
