Whenever in-city commuter air travel is mentioned, this is what I think of. Sure looks like what was referenced in the 1st ed. Rigger Black Book.
I imagine the middle class wage slaves puttering about on the ground in one of these or one of these. Embarrassing, yes. |

QUOTE (Wesley Street @ Sep 2 2008, 03:15 PM)  I imagine the middle class wage slaves puttering about on the ground in one of these or one of these. Embarrassing, yes. Those actually remind me of the old Morgan Tri-wheel. These cars were popular after WWII because they were taxed as motocyles and not cars. Peter Sellers drives one in the movie "The Party". That alone should tell you it is a silly-looking car. |

Not exactly shadowrun... but still, a giant mechanical spider on the side of a building...?

The Dodge Tomahawk Concept Motorcycle. No street samurai should ride without one.

What every self respecting shadowrunner should have in the shower. Paranoia, because you can never have too much of it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Elf Poseur #1. Yes, those ears are real.
Elf Poseur #2. Yeah, those are real too. SURGE victim. Tom Leppard, who had leopard marks tattooed over his entire body. There's all kinds of real-life body mod freakery out there and most of it grosses me out too much to post. Split tongues, spikes and bumps out of faces, and Coke cans through earlobes. Yick! But hey, Google away. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) iirc, its electrically adjustable... im just pissed that if you want to sit upright its all hog and chrome, and if you want something else you have to basically sleep on top of the fuel... and combat axe? meh. combat shotgun more like it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) and a remote turret with a assualt rifle and drum on the back (IMG:style_emoticons/default/silly.gif) |

Not exactly a real photo, but the NOAH is my character's new ride. Not a monocycle, by the way. There are two wheels. It can turn on the spot like a tank.

QUOTE (Wesley Street @ Sep 22 2008, 12:30 PM) The Burj tower in Dubai. It's what I think of when I see references to the Cord Mutual Skyraker in SR's Neo-Anarchists' Guide to North America: The way that thing towers over the rest of the buildings would be the comparative sizes of the Renraku Arcology (minus its shape) compared to the rest of Seattle. |
