new update,
not a massive amount of progress thanks to work commitments, however I have managed to get more of the engine assembled and I also completed detailing the scratch built battery with leads and terminals.
Apart from the oil return lines I havent added anymore extras as yet, I have been impressed with how detailed the kit is compared to the real bike pics I have. There are a couple more additions I want to add but I think the motor is almost finished.
I have dulled the polished chrome with a little thinned matt black and also ran a slightly thicker mix into the recesses where the bolts are to add a little depth.
I dedided not to use the clear yellow for the gold colour on the engine as per the instruction as I think it looks far too bright, instead I thinned some enamel gold and used that instead, personally I think it looks much better, I have a few more parts to paint so it should look better once complete.
Ok here's the pics so far, Im just spraying the wheels at the moment so they will be the next update, the tank is also assembled and primed awaiting a top coat.
more to come soon-ish!
Sean
