Sorry, I've been away from the hobby for a few years taking care of some personal stuff. Don't you hate when life gets in the way of the hobby? Anyway, I decided to jump back in with a three bike display of Ben Spies' milestones for Yamaha. His first MotoGP race on one, his first podium and his first victory. I also wanted to do some detail work but only what will be seen with the bodywork in place. This build has been going on for a few months now so bare with me as I insert the updates. It will kind of look like I'm some kind of speed demon but a lot is complete. So, to get started... Here is a selection of aftermarket parts and two of the three kits to be used. Each bike will have a different muffler with different heat traces I also had to kitbash one set of wheels to get the 2011 bike correct. I drew up the pattern in AutoCAD then transfered the image to ABS plastic with thinner on the copy paper. After that it was all cutting, grinding, gluing and putty work. More pictures tomorrow. Lunch break here is over.

Hallo buddies and all fans of aircooled vehicles. Today i want to show you my first built old beetle ever. My brother and i work on this cars in 1:1 since 1992 and last year in august i built this one. Like my bulli "Horst", this one tells a story too and so he became a diorama with a small shoppingmal. What have i changed? - wiring engine and all cables a beetle has - two-tone paintjob and custom decals from a "Nailart studio" - front and rear hood lock - bamboo shelf under the dashboard - export bumpers with supports - as it must be - Seats soft cuddly - Interior Detail tricked, so that's fit to issue - Right mirror left out because he is not the same as the type of the left and "ugly" is - give him licenseplates Here we go with my favorite black/white pictures, my "Shoppingqueen - VW Käfer 1300" ...
