    So the first thing you build is the exhaust (which is also the first thing you have to add detail to) I started by plugging the holes from the screws with bits of off cut sprue then added the expansion spring brackets (made from paper clips)
    I also made the exhaust valve from brass sheet and the lambda sensor patch from a Phillip's screw cover

    Hi all like all the 1/6 Tamiya bike kits I loved this and decided to build it again only as if it was in a Mad Max film first thing I did was alter the rear swing arm.
    Can you see where this is going.

    Base coat first then shade (I dont do armour or planes much but they seem to do the opposite) dont know if it would make a difference I just do what works for me.

    Hi all thought I would start this one to go with the X Wing but again not following the box art I thought how about a chrome one (I'm sure Darth would approve)

    Masking tape and adding a very small amount of black to whatever colour you're using (I use a pipette and add 2 to 3 drops to my airbrush reservoir then just blend upto the masking tape, heavier towards the edge of the masking tape) (I give the area around the masking tape a spray with the base colour first to prevent bleeding) if I'm doing black I add a few drops of blue to the paint and do the opposite I spray from furthest from the masking tape up to it.

    Hi it is a pretty good kit I say that as there is a lot poor detail in it which I added and also a lot of penny pinching (like not supplying a few assorted wires in the appropriate scales) I doubt it would have added more than a tenner to the cost of the kit (and I would have happily paid that extra (that was the worst part finding scale appropriate pieces of wire for it) the radiator is a joke on a kit this price and size, I got some PE stuff to correct that (yes more expence) I just dont understand why they didn't add the details I did for another 100 quid they could have added them and i think if people are prepared to pay 650 why wouldn't they pay a bit more for a perfect kit. Oh and Rick I taped the holes for the bolts and Allen screws  so they were easy to install.
