Harley

thought id work on another Revell chopper. these are great kits!

so heres where im at, im going for no fenders no fancy junk on it kind of look.
im gonna use those wheels to but they will be black.

heres the frame so far. i literally just put another coat of cement over all the joints. i'll let this set up overnight then sand and fill seams, i want a nice smooth frame!

Re: Harley

I think I have to buy me one of these. It's something different.

Re: Harley

finished clear coating the tank!

also after looking at those wheels they seem to look a little like a swastika lol.. so i decided to change them out for these which i think will look sweet all black!

Re: Harley

Oh well... fantastic!

The old rims didn't remind me a svastika, more those japanese combat wheels... New wheels appear bigger in diameter due to the "open" (looks like a stretched skin... LOL) design, old one looks massive, badass. May be a combination? Svastika back and stretched castor skin in front?

Jokes apart, great job, I must resist to those customs fashination!!!!

Re: Harley

Hi James,

well done so far!!

I´d prefer to lower the gas cell over the frame, but that´s a question of personal taste

Re: Harley

i added some PE , one under the tank to act as the mounting bracket, and some to cover the screw on the triple trees.
