Definitely a stunning build well done...


Thank you Egilman, for your praise and for your well appreciated support during the Crocker build. I learned a lot about classic bikes through your input and valid your sharp eye for my tiny hick ups.

Cheers Rob

Absolutely spectacular result. The model is beautiful. As always the log is an absorbing read and the photographs are a treat to see

Muchas gracias Alan, I try my best with my logs with my sometimes feeble English, as I have profited from so many other´s build logs during the years. I like to reflect the days work in a log, which sharpens the eye for some skills learned and optimizing these.
Photography is also one of my hobbies, but taking model shots still proves to be tricky, but I try my best.

Cheers Rob

VERY stunning... , could you do a few shots against a bit lighter background so she stands out a bit more?


Thanks for your input during my build Egilman, there is a special for you.

She's a beauty! Particularly with the sunlight glistening in her hair (proverbial hair).


Muchas gracias amigos, I have to do some refining with my daylight model photo skills. I still like the photo box better, as it´s easier to control the light.

Stunning shots in sunlight, Rob. She looks good enough to top off the fluids and take her out for a spin. 👍


I´d like to do that, Ken, but I would be so careful and caring and polishing the Crocker all the time. I better stay with my E-mountain bike :D.

Cheers Rob

Thank you Tim and sorry for the late answer. MFH motorcycle kits are extremely detailed out of the box, so there is no need for extra detailing. I loved your Triumph build though, a completely different breed of kit, but with a very beautiful outcome.

Thank you OC, I was sometimes about to kick her into life. But the tank didn´t hold the fuel :D.
