Hello,
Started Tamiya 1/12 Honda MVX250F.
Going to change wheels and inboard disk to normal brake disk, and add seat cowl.

Filling chambers and swingarm with polyester putty.

Another great start. You keep amazing me with your builts.

Hi,

replacing the plastic-mesh in the body panels with real mesh is a big win for the model

This is something I have to follow. I made the same model in the end of 1980's, yours looks much better than I did!
