Wow, I'm honored you liked my designation coding so much ^^

So for whose who wonder: OrLRV = Offroad Light Recon Vehicle.

 

[Sil3nt d3cay]

i would say either Hyena or Serval

 

[Sumofl]

Personally, I like Meerkat. I'm also anxious to see how this turns out. It would seem to me that doing a Halo dirtbike would be fairly difficult.

you sir, have a brilliant mind to come up with a designation like that. and i am honored that you submitted that code in the first place

 

[Sumofl]

Wouldn't this be a Mk I as opposed to a Mk III?

 

[soloknight6]

MKI works as well, you guys decide. i do want to stick with OrLRV though.
and this build will be awesome, just pulled off all the main components of the build off the bike today, time for some hardcore sanding and sawing!

 

[Sumofl]

Alright! Take some pics while you do it, would love to see the progress on this.

 

[soloknight6]

ok guys, stripped all the pieces of stickers and deacals, i would like suggestions on paint, i was thinking of basing it on WETA's warthog paintscheme,

 

[Sumofl]

I might base it off a Mongoose instead, since they are both Recon vehicles. Definitely add some shape lines to it, alot of UNSC designs are very boxy

 

[soloknight6]

thats what im thinking about doing, ill do some shaping with some sheet metal, see what i get,
im probably going to go the WETA route and add some detail lines with my airbrush, this bike is going to be dirty

 

[TaKaGaRi]

I vote meerkat also.

When will you have progress pics?

 

[soloknight6]

ill post some pics of the pieces tonight, send pics of the bike tomorrow, it looks pretty cool when its naked lol,

 

[zXTOKENXz]

I'm just going with meerkat because its a relative of the mongoose. therefore a dirt bike being half an atv. Meerkats can be brutal in packs btw, just throwing that our there.

 

[soloknight6]

MEERKAT is the highest bidding name on the bike so far, and i like how they can be ferocious in numbers, good quality trait for the bike, a pack hunter so to speak

 

[KC Master Thief]

umm how about usnc..... viper or wildebeast

 

[Sean Anwalt]

Viper's got a ring to it. If it's fast. But meerkat also sticks. hmmmm.

I vote go with the UNSC prototype LRV-4 A Meerkat light attack vehicle.

 

[jake11124]

Meerkat or puma (maybe chupatingy)

 

[misfitjh]

I don't know if you guys remember this one

By misfitjh but it looks like to toy uzi's and model rockets attached on the front of Chuck's bike from Delta Force.
