1/12 Honda RS1000

Hi guys,

Finally after seven months I finished my first model of the year. It's the Tamiya Honda RS1000. This model is pretty nice model to build. I love those old bikes. I painted the body parts with Zero Paints Ferrari Rosso Fomule 1970-1980, which was a very close match for me. Clearcoated with 2k from ZP. All engine parts where painted with many different Alclad shades. I also changes all the wiring, because the ones that Tamiya provided where to big. I'm pretty pleased with the result. I hope you like it. Here are some pics:

















Best regards,
Lesley

Thanks Lesley
I was interested in your process in building this model
I really like these older "retro" racers from days gone by
