Never posted in a WIP thread, so I figured why not. This cute trike from MPC caught my eye the other day, so I brought it home. It’s a nice change of pace from cars and trucks, and fun and simple break. The decal sheet is awesome, plenty of stuff to choose from. I decided this kit would be a good opportunity to try spraying Molotow chrome thru the airbrush and it’s impressive! I’ll shoot it a bit wetter next time, but still looking good and almost fool proof! A lot of bodywork was done to get rid of the seams in the body halves along with other imperfections and then sprayed with Testors Grabber Orange that I still had laying around. Sand and buff soon. Engine and interior pieces ready for primer and paint. Fun stuff! Thanks for looking, post more pics as I go! 30239D95-9233-43A0-9D42-33D2402D75CA.thumb.jpeg.f7d8bd4dc4d541e3b3ed61980ccc5cd5.jpeg75C41C30-7A59-46B8-AF5F-A29EF182C8E5.thumb.jpeg.fa5176b878ec2f70ac2f001f736a9442.jpeg0CF8639F-62E7-496B-87D6-F52B92389907.thumb.jpeg.2d3e970c7241ff0b71e173d91081495f.jpeg6E06A669-1BDA-4A1D-8EB1-81C67101AA3A.thumb.jpeg.6d1e083dd6f4c4467b3fe308926b157e.jpeg6098DE0E-E4D1-4483-9E08-C0DB859A187E.thumb.jpeg.8fac0fc4e28807ce3732b974232c8741.jpeg75B8B926-C11A-45B4-9FD6-F7A851F98B27.thumb.jpeg.0bbfd1aa1c50f6bcd1d64b161ec0ba97.jpeg

Looking great so far!  I've been collecting the whole set of these to build this year - I'll be following along!

Thanks, it’s finished up and in the other section now??
