Basic Cu Chulaind added...one more figure to go for test then hopefully into the work itself...having just completed my research proposal ;)

Started working on the "SteamHoverBike" still the gears, aiming device and a few odd and sods to go...

Looks like a good start...but what is your myth or legend?

[Blachart67]

Cu Chulaind (also spelt CuChulaind, Cu Chulain, CuChulaind, Cu Chulainn and probably a few others ways as well) was an Old Irish hero. I believe that the character Slaine of 2000AD fame is based on him. Anyway he was a dude killing, raiding, getting the girl etc.

Rather than illustrate one of his exploits in terms of making everything steampunk I thought I would reincarnate him into the future...so rather than riding a horse he is riding a steam powered hoverbike...and will be in the midst of rescuing "the girl"...who probably doesn't need rescuing.

Cool...it all makes sense now!! Good Luck!

This is most of the composition...still to do the details, eyes, teeth and revolver in females hand.
