As always the log is an absorbing read and the photographs are a treat to see alan 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.

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.

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.
