Here's the latest, started to paint the front forks and also add a bit more detail. Might not be completely accurate but I think it looks alot better.



Can anybody suggest a digital camera that takes good close up pictures at lower resolutions?

Does your camera have macro mode? If so that should sharpen up detail for close range...
