ok got most of the main framework down and such. just a few more parts to add, then i can concentrate on the transformation. and get a proper look at the robot.

If I was doing something like that think i'd use constraints to help in animating it. Dunno if you've used em?

wow - great work so far Magicsy! I really like the bike - it reminds me of the bike from Akira. This is going to look excellent once finished. Good luck in the challenge!
