Bullock Jet-Bike Re-sculpt by Mr. Papafakis.

Inspired by the original Pete Knifton artwork, The One from the brilliant blog Mr. Papafakis has re-sculpted the classic MK-14 Bullock jet-bike to more closely match Pete's version.

This hog has all the candy and looks far more bad-ass than the original models.

Head over to The One's blog and check it out! He's been playing with creating a portly ork with Oyumaru that has to be seen to be believed.

"More Chrome Please.": The MK14 Bullock Jet Cycle.

Only cowards need handlebars.

I've been doing more practice comic book coloring and have started using vintage black and white gaming art as my line-art. I used this drawing of a Warhammer 40K MK14 Bullock Jet Cycle by Pete Knifton as my most recent piece. The scan I had wasn't that great so I did this one quick and dirty but was still pretty happy with how it turned out.

I then went through my collection of White Dwarfs and found a much better image that I could have scanned and used. But I've already colored it once so so c'est la vie. But it made me realize how cool these little bikes were so I scanned the other reference I have in my collection.

Although I don't want to dwell only in the past I still enjoy the humor and obvious fun that the early creators of 40K shared. The test report by Johann Blank sums up this mood quite well.

The detachable combat blade is a nice touch.
