supercharged Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 (edited) This was three years in the making but here it is my custom chopper. It is a revell motorcycle kit. I stretched the frame by breaking it at the neck and adding some rod. I scratchbuilt the fuel tank, oil tank, and the front air spoiler. The front end is 60% scratchbuilt. I was still building this the night before it's first show. Edited November 5, 2010 by supercharged Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for posting for us!! Mike I was looking at the five or six other models in the class and i thought to myself i don't know. They got through third and second i thought to myself i was done. The other models looked so good. Then they called my name for first place i was so exited. It was the first trophy that i won in my whole life. I had thought about it afterwards that i scratchbuilt alot of the model stretched the front of the frame. All the other models in the class were more box stock. Over all it was a good day for me. I am hoping that momentum will drive into my other projects. Edited November 5, 2010 by supercharged Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modlbldr Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Well, congratulations! Keep the momentum going. I just (finally) got instructions to my old BSA Lightning Rocket kit for the old 66 kit. I can't wait to break into it. Later- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
