Hello everybody,
After so many month without real modeling i try to build now this very spectacular bike. It was always my dream to build this version since i saw a photo somewhere on the internet back in 2007. It was kind of promo bike, exhibited at Valencia paddock in 2007.
Fortunatelly Nicolecron decals (a great company from Argentina) released this decal set this year. It is really a perfect product, printed by Cartograf.
Here are some photos after some work on the body parts.
I used Mr White Surfacer 1000 and Tamiya TS26 to paint all parts. Then came the decals, with some Mr. setter and Mr.softer treatment. Every decal can be applied without problem, but at some areas it must be cut.
