Very nice job on the GSX Ken, I love the two-tone paintwork and the leather effect on the seat looks just perfect, very well done - I think this is your best build yet!! Cool

Thanks Kev and Dave this one won't end in the scraps drawer ( I must admit I am quite pleased with it ( although most of that is down to the kit the level of detail I've never seen before) actually it's three tone it starts off black through red to blue (I know it doesn't show much in the pics ) but it is. Anyway thanks I just hope I can make the Honda look as tatty as I want.

Ken

Lovely builds you have underway there.

Tamiya produce some stunning motorbike kits and I was pleased to see the other day that a book has just been published giving lots of hints and tips when building these (have a birthday coming up so hoping this might be something I get Cool

Did some work on the engine, its been dropped this side, should I give the other side the same treatment or is that going to far, mine was only dropped on one side but I am sure they have been both sides.

Some more lovely work Ken ThumpUp

Especially like the rust effect, very convicing and the scrape damage in your last picture is quite effective too Cool

Hi all here is todays little bit.
I decided to do an experiment I've stuck a bit of foil on the tank and I'm hoping that when ive put the top coat on when I scratch through it it will look like the metal of the tank showing through.

also I'm trying to show the buleing effect on a chrome exhaust
