bsoder Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 That is a wicked lookin' trike John!.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Railfreak78 Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 I love it! I like the fade on the paint and the way you did it around the frame and the gas tank. I like the engine detail and handlebars. The overall concept is creative and unique and nice work John. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest snapper Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 .......and I thought I would make this practice one first and then make a better one at a latter time. ? No disrespect John, but if this one is sub par, then, wow. I remember you posting your other dragon trike too, and you do some fine work. That paint is just outstanding.

Faust Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Wow. Just... Wow! I can remember seeing stuff like that at car shows when I was little. Loved them! I CANNOT believe that's a kit! Fantastic work, man, just fantastic. I feel a bit motivated now... not that I can come up with something that good, but work like this gets my modelling mojo goin'!
