Hello me again firstly apologies for the lack of updates lets just say LIFE and move on lol,
So for a first bike I was excited to start and see how it differs in complexity to cars and jumped straight in to the body work to try and get a head start later on,assembled them then primed it in Ultimate gelb so I could see the seems
Image
Once the seems are ok I primed them in some Ultimate white
Image
Then moved onto the engine a few awkward seems on it which took an age to get to look ok'ish
Image
Image
Image
And in the frame
Image
Image
I did a test fit of the fairings on the bike just to see how they fitted
Image
Image
Then it's on to all the fiddly bits :eeek:
Image
Image
Image
Image
Painted the wheels,rear mud guard and brake disk and attached the brake pipes
Image
Image
Now it's back to the fairings and the decals :bash: well let's just say I wasn't expecting good ones and I wasn't disappointed they are very brittle and cracked as soon as I started working them but I got the tank and rear fairing to look not so bad I've had to do some touching up but it's not noticeable
Image
Image
And with the saddle
Image
A quick fit just to see progress
Image
So that's where I'm up too just the front end to assemble and paint and the decals on the front fairing :crazy: I hope you like

Happy modelling
Dan

Damn it, man! I don't need another model subject fixation, but you're making these bikes look so damn good...

Outstanding work.
