Gosh do I love cheesy titles.

The Skull Twins were too cramped in the Skull Interceptor (they can't both fit in the Skull Seat sipping Skull Liquor from a... skull, lol) so I built one of them a speeder.

Skull Twin Biff (real name: Bifourk Fraggston) likes his space-rides big, noisy and ugly (just the way he likes his women too!) but younger skull Twin Stef (real name: Francis Stefondavich, hey he's not gonna use "Francis" as his nick name! His sperm donor dad was a French guy xD ) likes his vehicles a bit more refined. They may not always agree on what kind of engine to use, but they do always agree that no ride is complete without at least one pair of... radioactive plasma cannons!?

I like the gratuitous use of weapons on a vehicle, especially when they're an obnoxious neon color! There's only one hose running from the engine to the front cannons, I like the unbalanced look. The dark bley stud under one of the cylinders is there to simulate some ribbing, to show the cannons pulsate and reciprocate into the vehicle a little when they fire. (So much thought went into that one stud! :tongue: )

I did what I could with the underside, turned out nice considering my limited amount of parts. The useful gauge on one side shows Stef when it's time to recharge the cannons. The rear neon-green cones aren't weapons, they're just there so people will think twice about tailgating :D

And yeah, the base piece is from an old Aquasharks Dart sub. I need more cool stickers! I love the "I love Insectoids" sticker, too bad it's upsidedown, har har.

Pretty neat speeder DrNightmare, I like the sleek look of this one, and the overall design fits the Skull Twin very well. I'm looking forward for your entertaining comics regarding this build! :wink:
