2. The two female riders were created using the torsos with the soulstone positioned centrally on the chest. The armour was then resculpted using Green Stuff.

4. One of the completed Jetbikes. I have used standard Guardian heads for the Jetbike riders instead of the ones that were supplied in the kit, which have suffered from being designed using CAD; they are too narrow and the eye lenses are too close together. It's a subtle difference, but it makes the helmet appear "pinched" to me. Using the older design of helmet fixes that issue.

6. The scenic bases for my Jetbikes. All of them have had their stems shortened, so that the Jetbikes appear to be hovering at around chest height rather than flying overhead. Magnets will be fitted to them so that the jetbikes can be detached for easy transportation.
