I made the primary covers from old chevy hubcaps..
and I re chromed most of the engine using BMF

Already off to a super start. That tank looks fantastic.

Wow I like this theme! Can you tell me (us) how you made that red stripe around the seat? Is it a wire or something?

Very nice!
I've been hooked on the other set of decals that came with this one, but after seeing your build I may well change my stripes.

I love it!!:)

Hi guys I have a question for you all... I'm doing a Revell Torch kit right now and I don't understand how is it possible to glue the frame, paint it and AFTER install the front fork ( like you guys are doing ).
In the manual they tell to install the front fork and glue the frame together.

If anyone could help me I will very appreciate.
Thanks!

Nobody can help me?!?!

Great stuff, Im starting on the crusader, this provides some inspiration.:)

I have a crusader kit here. You should be able to install the front fork at any time. I chopped off the nubs for the rear wheel mounting, I'll be making up my own axle and probably will use 0-80 or 2-56 allen cap screws to secure the wheel.

I have a coffin tank made for it out of styrene, not sure I'm happy with it yet.

Just don't glue the very tip of the frame until after you installed the fork. You won't notice it on the finished model.

Great idea, thanks!
