I like the front wheel spokes and the chains - but not too keen on how the "cape" pieces came out on the fenders.

It's not completly finished, so maybe there will be some additional tweeks...

holy fuck!

That is sa-weet!

they should've done the cape pieces more 3-d, and paint them, rather than go for chrome

but.. hot da-yam!

not bad....but just wait. spring 2005...

I don't like the "fire" on the front wheels... looks a bit cheesy and poorly crafted... other than that, pretty cool.

OCC should make one. [img]wink.gif[/img]

nah, Paul Yaffe would have done a sweet version, his sort of "flow" would've worked nice

that, or...it sounds cliched, but... WCC, just plain for a nice clean front end and gas tank [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

I'm definitely more of a fan of WCC or a lot of others... but yeah, cost is certainly a factor too.

OCC does good theme bikes... and that is certainly what a Spawn Chopper is. The details look good, but that front flame thing really bugs me. It looks like silver cardboard.

EDIT: Ok, actually read the article... thank goodness this wasn't commissioned and paid for by McFarlane... if it had been, I'd be thinking they wasted their money.

The concept is cool, and it is a good effort, but I'm not incredibly impressed by this bike. It seems kinda cheesy to me, the more I look at it. I've been pining for a sweet Spawn bike to be made for a while now, and was excited at first. I guess my vision for one is a lot different.
