Re: Yamaha YZR-M1 Valencia 2005

John, all references are to put the 2005 Yamaha M1. I think we learned a lot from this conversation and that's good. Thanks for sharing your ideas and experience.
Unfortunately I have no greater reference of guitar strings that I used was a material that I had saved q long in expectation of one day being able to use, as I see it with other materials.

Another step in assembling the M1. Here also decided to increase a bit and decided on a new experience: to separate the original part of the engine cuts in horizontal blocks.
Each part of the engine block is made ​​of a material splits and usually masked paint, however decided to separate them individually to perform the painting and then adding them together.

Engine mount glued to the original



Here the base has already cut the engine, where the top will be on display (would not be in the kit with fairing), so I decided to make corrections of some details in the design of the block.
Inclusion of the fins of the styrene block





Correction of the design of the block. Below the number of reference photo for this bike's finish



Parts that will acamento chrome, painted in gray enamel



The engine block. Bottom polished chrome and already









Middle part of the engine.



Head out with the exhaust yet to be detailed.



Cover head



View of the horizontal cuts made in the engine



Pre assembly (not yet bonded) of the engine.





Thanks for visiting

Unfortunately I do not know this system in practice and only referenciei me the photos.



Anyway thank you and another friend, or if you can enlighten us better be valid.

Beto

Betão awesome job as always!

Hey Beto--

Great, clean build so far. What chrome paint for the bottom of the engine did you use? It looks very sharp.

Thanks!

Daniel

Beto - that really is an interesting way to section the engine to achieve that assembled look. very well done - must have taken a lot of time and patience. - John

Daniel,
I use Model Master Chrome Silver.

John,
Actually spent quite some time, do as many times as necessary until you feel the way I want. I practice modeling for fun.
Thanks for following.

Re: Yamaha YZR-M1 Valencia 2005

I guess it was the chrome enamel? How many years did it take to dry? (Kidding, of course!)

Why did you section the engine? Easier to paint? I read what you posted, just curious.
