Honda Monkey 1/6 Tamiya

Hi, got some break from my other projects and decided to build a Monkey from Tamiya big scale kit.

Almost all the parts are now painted, so assembly follows:



Some details:













Hope to get this done in few days, then maybe the YZ250 Bike from Tamiya big scale...

Great looking build...I love these smaller 1/6th bike kits.

Did you ever finish it?

Re: Honda Monkey 1/6 Tamiya

Finally got this model ready. It was standing on my shelf for more than a year, because I was not happy with my selfmade Honda wings transfers... the red kept showing troug the white. After getting new kit from Japan, I finally got the inspiration to finnish up the model. I took the wing transfers from the new kit and build a brake bar to the rear wheel. Here is few pictures of the finished model:
