Dark Vengeance bike army


I am hoping to build a 1500 point all-bike army for 40k this year, using the cheap bikes that have flooded out from the new Dark Vengeance starter set.

The list:
  • Captain on bike (artificer armour, relic blade, storm shield)
  • Librarian on bike
  • Bike squad (sergeant with power fist, three bikes with two meltas, assault bike with multimelta)
  • Bike squad (sergeant with power sword, three bikes with two plasma, assault bike with heavy bolter)
  • Bike squad (sergeant with power sword, three bikes with two meltas, assault bike with multimelta)
  • Bike squad (sergeant with power axe, three bikes with two plasma, assault bike with heavy bolter)
  • Bike squad (sergeant with power axe, three bikes with two meltas, assault bike with multimelta)
  • Assault Bike squadron (three multimeltas)
Attack bikes are going to be built onto DV bikes; I have a couple of spare sidecars, and it doesn't look terribly hard to scratchbuild a half-dozen more from plastic card and the bits box.

And now, a couple of pictures of the construction to date...
