No bikes?
Hey!
I just found this site today while searching up finished models and I must say...WOW! You guys are good. Anyway, I just signed up and this is my first post. I wanted to know why you guys don't like motorcycles?? Tamiya makes a good number but I never seen anyone on this forum make any. Of course, not that their's anything wrong with cars!:smoker2: I am interested because I am a big cycle fan, so I purchased a Tamiya Kawasaki ZX-12r 1/12. I have been working for a couple weeks when I have time. I wouldn't think you guys would want pics of it, it is my second model kit...just getting into the painting stuff. I wanted to know since the kit comes with transparent parts, do I prime it if I want to paint it solid colour? ---Thanks

I think the 'Car Modelling' heading really is the reason!
None of us are into bikes I guess, and we would want to keep the forum to just cars anyway! Cars is where we are at!  Mind you, having said all that, I have built 2 bikes in the past! P.S. Do you really own a Zero fighter????

Wow, cool bikes.
But still doesn't answer my question. It comes with transparent body parts. Clear green parts. I wanted to know since the kit comes with transparent parts, do I prime it if I want to paint it solid colour? Or will it still look nice to spray it green?? Since the parts are already green. I wanted to do as the box with a fading of transparent -> solid colour just like the box to show the engine.

Prime with 2-3 coats first, then paint with the finish coats

I might do some bikes if I could find some I like in 1/24 scale to hang out with my cars. I'm not a bike nut, but I like them just the same.
I have a paper one to build...
