Janne Herajärvi Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 My first motorcycle build is finished Progress pics in "other models" section.
Monty Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 (edited) It's not that common to see those three colors together, but that little gold pinstripe ties the green in with the black, resulting in a stellar combination. Thumbs up from me! PS Is that Tamiya metallic green? Edited July 6, 2011 by Monty
Sixties Sam Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 VERY well done bike! The colors are just right - eye catching, but not gaudy. Good work! Sam
Janne Herajärvi Posted July 6, 2011 Author Posted July 6, 2011 Thank you guys. Forgot to mention that model is painted with brush Monty: Its Humbrol metallic green and other colors are Humbrol too exept green on seat is Revell.
crazyjim Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 I was watching your WIP, Hertsi. The scooter came out really good. The colors make it stand out. I'm happy you painted the gold trim on the seat.
Janne Herajärvi Posted July 6, 2011 Author Posted July 6, 2011 Thank you guys Jim: I could not think that seat anymore without that golden trim, it maked that really pop. Couple more pics in sunlight
TheCat Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 Very cool looking chopper. I like the color combo you've done.
Janne Herajärvi Posted July 6, 2011 Author Posted July 6, 2011 Thank you. I did know before starting that i want make these colors match. One reason was that there is not much green builds in my showcase..
Monty Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 Thank you guys. Forgot to mention that model is painted with brush Monty: Its Humbrol metallic green and other colors are Humbrol too exept green on seat is Revell. You'll never have to work too hard to convince me of the merits of Humbrol paints. I've got a ton of them, including a couple tins of #50 Green Mist metallic, but I haven't found a project to use the green on yet. Your pics show what a cool color it is, so thanks for posting them. Their #51 Sunset Red metallic is a unique shade as well if ya feel like doing another chopper.
Janne Herajärvi Posted July 8, 2011 Author Posted July 8, 2011 #50 Green Mist metallic #51 Sunset Red metallic Yup thats the green i used. I tryed that sunset red on one build but i ruined that paintjob so i went with other color. I would like to use that red for some convertible build
