Biker Brat WIP

[axiom]

Another WIP for the Brat gang - this time on two wheel:

Still plenty more work needed to finish the conversion, but I'm happy with the overall look. A couple more pics & details over at the blog:

He is rather tasty, A Squat bike is a good fit

 

[axiom]

Yeah - I was worried it might be a bit small, but it seems to have worked out OK

 

[Asslessman]

I was thinking about something, Maybe a ghetto blaster or some device (speakers...) should be there for the Bratt to hear his music while setting the underhive on fire... I truly believe he's the kind of guy who wants to share his taste for Eurythmics, Boy George and noisy motorcycles.

 

[Citadel Collector]

The Brat conversion is fantastic!!!

I just laughed so hard I woke the baby and now my wife is cross.

I was thinking he was more of an Adam and the Ants fan

Paint the bike orange

Nothing is more Retro and cool then that heh

 

[axiom]

Isn't there a joke about orange choppers and some kind of cheesy snacks?

Adam and the ants is the best for Bratts I reckon, but they don't have good taste you know :

Mentionned it on FB but this song (and all those from DMX Krew) has the sound of Bratts for me :

looks great but it could use a modified seat and front fairinglike so:

funnily enough I just started reading the book Speed Tribes about the bosozoku, and watching a live action fan trailer of Akira and was thinking about finding some minis to do a gang of bosozoku, your brat ganger would fit right in.

 

[Asslessman]

Bosozoku have hair like James Dean, they're tough guys, nothing like the emo-new romantics Bratts really are :

Japanese Bosozokus :

Very cool bike! I do have a second bike planned, so perhaps that one might get a nice custom seat

That biker conversion is simply awesome, love it. Great work Axiom.

 

[Ti Pouchon]

Very nice conversion work indeed! Love the pose, looks natural and evocative.
Nit-picky hat on: can't really tell from the pic but I'm pretty sure that the paper-clip arm is too long; looks as if upper arm and forearm are almost parallel. That way, his hand would have to be where his shoulder is. I'd widen the angle to shorten the arm.
