Porsche bike 1:8


Recommended Posts

This plastic model set made in Japan is out of print. This is what I did when I made it 15 years ago.

This is incredible work!! It reminds me of that Japanese gentleman publishing his masterpieces under the name of Kim's House: his motorcycles collection is THE REFERENCE of what can be done in that domain (http://kimshouse7015.com/).

 

Your Porsche bicycle is a work of art. Absolutely stunning.

 

And yes, replacing the spokes on the wheels with insect pins, changes completely the model.

Wonderful model! I'm an avid cyclist and I'd love to build a high quality bicycle model if there are any out there anymore.
