"Labor Day Project"

[Luis Ayala]

A friend (Barbo) gave me this 1/6 "Shine Star" bike kit as a gift about a week ago. It was partially started, but all parts were there, so I decided to take it as a "Labor Day Project".

The paint is "Rustoleum Grape", finished with "Boyds Clearcote". I painted it on Friday to let the paint dry enough. It took abot 4 hours to assemble and I had a lot of fun with my kids while putting it together. Is far from perfect but I am really happy with the final product.

Hope you like it and thanks for looking.

Thanks Ismael !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am glad you like it!!!! I really had fun with my kids on this one.

I was thinking on the "Piñones" thing, but my wife says that it is just an excuse to get some greasy "Alcapurrias & Bacalaitos"

That thing is cool man, I like the way the little wires run around the bike, I think this is what really sets it up to look so real, very nice job considering the amount of time you spent building it bro...............

It is kind of a shame that you posted that great build here. It would have been perfect for Harry's "real or model" quiz. Dare I say, it is a very convincing build that would have most guessing "real" and not memorx. Nicely done.
