Will need a bit of C/F though(that will be why asked about c/f a few weeks ago):iceslolan
Need a few supplies for other project's so they have come to a stall ,so have started on this starting with fairins this time (hate doing decals rather be building)

This will be interesting. Have a look at www.mautomobile.com at Hudsons build of the same bike. Excellent! I will follow your progress.

That's an interesting looking project.

I must add that Hudson on Mautomobile is doing the 04 test version so you're all alone on this :-) No get that CF out (not that I would ever dare to start something like this up. But then again I'm a real coward...)
/Joel

I plan on making a test bike very similarly with the 04 Fortuna team. Good luck with the CF.

do you know how many sheets you would need to cover the whole bike?

The c/f on side panel went down really well ,while will have to redo tail section not very happy with it so will have to get another sheet of c/f

A wee bit more micro sol/set on these bits and they are nearly finnished

This looks great. Can you tell me approximately how many pieces of CF decal you have used for the larger parts, like the side cowlings. I can't really spot that many edges.
/Joel

Joel- the side cowl is one large piece with a few little peice's that go in the awarked places like the indent on cowl (the little triangle bit if you know what I mean?)
The spiderman decals from Ren have some mask shapes with them ,so I made a copy of them a while ago (had a feeling big T would bring out 05 M1)
Shayne

Cool project!

That's looking good.

Great job fitting one large piece over that large cowl.
