Thank you. blue heat stain is paint. I sprayed it from center... sprayed blue, and masked and sprayed silver and red, etc.


역시 그냥 쩔어요. 근데 오토모티브 여기 사용하기 어려운동네네요 ㅠㅠ
쩔긴 뭘.... 순호 맞지? 처음에는 어려운데 쓰다보면 나름 편한 부분도 있더라구.

those tires...:eek2: i never see anything like that!
sanding, masking and painting with some clear paint??? or with a pencil??????????

Young Gun - you - Sandro - Andrea - Zed red - have really increased the level of what can be done with these Tamiya motoGP kits and some skills to modify them with what is available and scratch-building. Your work on the "muffler - exhaust" is the best I've seen so far. I realize that "hair" is used to make the "mold lines" on the tires, but just how did you do that? It looks good, but I'm not quite sure that real tires - worn or new - have that look exactly. Maybe less of the mold lines would be better. What was your reference for that modification? Thank you for posting your work - keep up with your WIP it is very helpful. - John.

Mounting fantastic, I'm here looking at the details several times, so perfect, so the exhausts very realistic, congratulations, I am here looking forward to more ...

Sandro

Thank you friends for your kind replies.

Years have passed since my last post.

I've finished the instrument panel module with data logger and signal cables and front wheel module.

I hope you like it.

I had some serious problem after the 1st clear painting. However, after some weeks the trouble eased off by itself and I painted the 2nd clear.


I have sanded the cowlings and will paint clear one more time.

Just floored... I found myself reminding that i'm not looking at a real machine. And had to hold myself back from smashing my NSR500.

Would you have links to couple very hires shots from above?

Absolutely amazing, the best spent 30 minutes on internet in past few years watching your thread :)

Yongun - How do you keep the motorcycle so clean for the pictures - mine always have little pieces of dust and small lint on them that are attracted by static electricity. Also where did you get the diagram for the routing of the wires? - Thank you - John

No worries! English is not my first language either. :)

I was just asking for larger photos, so i could see more details. But it's ok, i saw them on your blog. Just incredible!

I'm just starting to work on a 1:32 model and finding very hard to get to such level of detail. What is your preferred method of working? Magnifying lamp/glass combo or one of those head-worn magnifying glasses?

Thank you for taking your time and your responses.

That really is stunning work, so clean, crisp and precise. Looks like you had some issues with the clear but that should look nice once re-cleared and polished out.
Outstanding work. :smokin:

I also have the same problems as you. Lots of dust and small lint...
I clean them before I take photos.
I used to use paint brush or blower.

I recently bought a cleaning brush from Tamiya.

It's quite good item except it's price.

For wiring, I refer to the topstudio's instructions for other season's version of M1 detail set as well as for 2005 version(they are definitely very good references and you can get it from their website) and photos in the book - Moto GP Racer's Archive 2005. I think I've examined those photos for years.:grinyes:

I'm using magnifying glass. I wish I could buy one of those head-worn type magnifying glasses.

YongGun- thank you for the response on how you keep the model so clean. I also have the Tamiya cleaning brush - I will use your recommendation and try the air blower - John

I've shined the cowlings and put them on.

I cannot fit the left side cowling... :crying:



What shall I do now? :frown:

Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhh.... Feeling your pain, Park. Same just happened to me, but on a much larger scale.
Can you heat the cowling and push them out without ruining the paint?

YongGun - that's a shame - this build was coming along so well - one of the best - do you know what happened?? Is it a decals issue the forum should know about?? Which company decals and clear did you use?? - -Thanks for sharing this will all of us on the forum - I know you will think of a way to fix it - your skills are amazing so far - John

do you at least know what is causing the cowling to not line up properly?

YongGun - is it an alignment issue or a clearcoat decal issue?? - John

now that's a weird issue, seeing that they worked just fine in dry-fit. been reading your thread and am absolutely amazed at the level of detail you've put here. hope you get this worked out soon. :)

Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhh.... Feeling your pain, Park. Same just happened to me, but on a much larger scale.

Thank you for your kind reply. Heating cowling sounds very dangerous.:nono:
I will try it when I finally failed.

For the decals issue, I painted the fairings with Tamiya Spray TS51 racing blue. And after decaling(decal was tamiya's cartograf printed one I remember.)... used Gunje's Super Clear II on it. I managed to handle the problem with clearcoat.


do you at least know what is causing the cowling to not line up properly?
At first, I doubt that the cowling is warped after painting and clearcoating. But comparing with the unpainted part the warpage was not serious.

Now I think it's mainly because of those added detail parts.


YongGun - is it an alignment issue or a clearcoat decal issue?? - John
Sorry, I don't understand what you mean. Though the fairing looks slightly warped after clearcoat, however, I think it's definitely not a clearcoat issue.

now that's a weird issue, seeing that they worked just fine in dry-fit. been reading your thread and am absolutely amazed at the level of detail you've put here. hope you get this worked out soon. :)
Yes. you are right. Just too many added parts. And the fairing seems to be warped slightly after clearcoat.




Tamiya must have not considered those additional parts and there's no room for those details.

https://public.sn2.livefilestore.com/y1pn6GEliLgJ7WqhxUCD3qxwf8uQ266dPlRaSl5hacULBktV2Y cc_HsS7DAI9EHEkXJzWlzCNtNjrETe64G8lKqyg/DSCN40255.jpg?psid=1

Inside of the Tamiya YZR-M1 2005 fairing, that groove(?) in the red circle is for the part in the red circle in the photo below.


https://public.sn2.livefilestore.com/y1pD5JenNrifMDdWfLtluaI5k9k1Nn2dJMyoCDQTx1Jykxo_Ux Z1Zp9JV2Amc60cCsJH43WGJ3A1QiaJ9UjWHNpoQ/DSCN40144.jpg?psid=1

So there's no room for that oxygen sensor cable. And the other parts in the yellow circles are holding the fairing away from the frame.


Actually I carved out the inner side at the begining of this project. However, it needs more room for the cable and other parts and I have to
carve out the fairing more.



It's very dangerous work and I made a tool to check the thickness.

https://public.sn2.livefilestore.com/y1pCB6mSAM2Qx4zwOa-S-lO14J60rtARDYp8b1hAuK2tAvaKo0Vi9Jm28fROW-tRoxrY4pA3BO6UeGk9MwJSJekrA/DSCN4026.JPG?psid=1


And temporarily remove the damper.

After those big operations.....

I managed to fit the cowlings.


https://public.sn2.livefilestore.com/y1pPgAkZGG98wVZOsJlYaI4xQ41TKT1NmYJ9pfPs8f8j-SZhWimiN10u3uDy3BcMF10ufXKw-oaI2lxTsUnCQNluw/DSCN4021.jpg?psid=1

However, they are not fit completely, and more work is needed to reinstall the damper.

I'm afraid that it will be very hard work.

The thickness measuring tool is sheer genius! I'm glad it worked out.

Good luck with completion!

YongGun - I knew you would come up with a solution - it looks very good - John

Hi YongGun, after i read your problems i checked my self on my model if the left side fairing and the steering damper will do problems. I build to the 2005 Yamaha M1 with o couple o minor improovments, so, one part what i use extra is the steering damper from Top Studio. The enigne, fraim, steering and tyres are ready, the fairings are painted with primer and a coat of paint. I need to recoat again but in this moment everything fit's perfectly. I don't believe the fairing will warp so much after paint and clearcoat. I neved had such a problem.

In your case probably the fairing is still to thick, and the many added details are the problem, but this is not your fault. But one question, why to cover them and not to show them? At least let the left side open, in this case the viewers have much more to see from your stunning work!

Thank you friends. I've finised this one. But... No more pics for WIP...

You can find the photos of finished bike here (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=1077793).

Thank you for watching my WIP so far.

K, well, I'm gonna go throw all my kits in the garbage now...

I don't know how detail to this level is even possible, but good lord, you've done one hell of a job with this. I've never seen something so impressive on such a small scale.

Great work. I mean this really is an artist's work, dude.
