James2 Posted April 14, 2013 Author Share Posted April 14, 2013 Love it, love it, love it, that blue scallop sweet. Did you hand panit the red stripe. Thanks! No, Airbrushed the red first then cut some thin Tamiya tape and followed the edge, masked it off again then shot the blue. Sweet! I love the scallops. Did those corrugated hoses come with the kit? Yes it did. And thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larman Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Beautiful model! I love everything about it....you nailed the stance, the wheels and tires are perfect for it, great color and scallops and the motor is killer too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyjim Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 I like your build so much, James, that I started building one. I'll be using a flathead engine with Ardun heads and maybe a fuel cell instead of having the gas tank hang off the back. Ma's Resin M/T Sportsman tires out back. I'm thinking of using the kit wire wheels on it and it'll painted in the brown area. Thanks so much for the inspiration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shardik Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 James, Glad to see this finished. Super sharp paint job and lots of nice clean detail. What really makes this one, though, is those decals . Seriously though, I'm happy to have been able to facilitate such a nice build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smellyfatdude Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 I have this kit in my stash, and I have to admit it would never have occured to me to build it this way. But, I'm glad you did. That's gorgeous! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
