Re: Yamaha YZF-R1 - Tamiya 1:12 [STUNT BIKE]

I like it very much. I always enjoy your builds. Very fine craftsmanship. What technique do you use to make the burned rubber ? Is it done by airbrush or with paintbrush ?
Keep up the great work.

Mark

Thanks Mike!

This time I started doing carburetors









after grey Gunze surfacer, Tamiya xf-56, Gunze semi gloss and Alclad semi matte aluminium



at the end I decided to make them a little dirty





and added cross type rivets from T2M





finally

Re: Yamaha YZF-R1 - Tamiya 1:12 [STUNT BIKE]

Again, back to the rear wheel.
The rear tire should be much worn



and not so brand new



so this is my tools



after assembly





installed in the drill with a capacity of 650W and drove 15-20 minutes after the abrasive paper of grit 240







I think I have to somewhat improve

I'm not a big fan of stuntu but I like the models with unusual realization and challenges associated with this.

Thanks!

Nobody produces photoetched chain to R1 so I decided to buy TopStudio chain to M1







should be enough chain for a larger sprocket

Re: Yamaha YZF-R1 - Tamiya 1:12 [STUNT BIKE]

great work! that chain seems so hard to do, i have wanted to try one but it seems like it would be very easy to mess up and waste the money...

It is't very difficult.
You just do not hit too hard with a hammer
