Starting a new build while the previous one is completed yet? That's illegal!

Peter Muldoon
Haha yep guilty. Mojo was fading a little on the Evo, so needed something new. Evo will be done soon though!

Spanjaard
nice start already, Peter

Peter Hardy
Better than anything I have ever done Pete! Outstanding build. Heat staining is not a science or follow me process, it is art. We all have a different way of doing it. I do an Alclad Chrome over Alclad Black Base and then use Alclad Hot colours to give the effect but others do it their own way and get better results. Love the clear sprue idea with the reservoirs. I will copy that!

Peter Muldoon
Thanks Peter! For a first try I'm stoked at the result, but there is definitely room for improvement. Keen to try different methods over time and see what works best for me. I now know that clear blue and clear red combine to make brown, not purple lol.

Spanjaard
Awesome.do not worry much about those caliper decals. Both look great, and it would be hard to see both at the same time anyway 😉

Kerry COX
The genes are strong in the Hardy family. 👍
I am in awe of the superfine detail you have applied. Especially the brake fluid reservoir on the handle bars, (image 50) just stunning. 🙂
Maybe you can both compete at the next QMHE. 🙂 🙂 🙂
Respect. 👍

Peter Muldoon
Haha thanks Spanjaard, I figured the same in the end. One of those things that will bug me because I know it's there lol.

Peter Muldoon
Wow, Kerry. Such kind words. Thank you so much. I still feel like I don't have a clue what I'm doing most of the time though haha. I think I'm quite a few models away from competing just yet!!

Spanjaard
think about it the other way... who knows if the manufacturer has not done marketing changes and have slightly different logos over the years. the owner of this bike replaced one that that was accidentally damaged, and got the calliper with the new logo 😉
for somebody who does not have a clue, your models looks better than other that are supposed to know 😄 😄

Peter Muldoon
Haha, I love your thinking Spanjaard! 😆

Kerry COX
Peter. I think your two inside cylinders are running a bit hot mate. 🙂 🙂 🙂
Looking wonderful Peter. Your satisfaction level must be off the scale right about now. 👍 👍 👍

Donald Dickson II
Wow!!!! Those pipes!!!!!!!!!!

Peter Hardy
That's my boy! So proud!

Peter Muldoon
Thanks guys! Means a lot coming from such an experienced and talented group of people. I'm very proud of this one. Really enjoyed doing a bike.

Peter Hardy
Real men build motorcycle models Peter, the rest just play with plastic! 😂 Beautiful build mate, I hope to see more bikes coming our way. I know you have a couple more there!

Spanjaard
it shows that you enjoyed Peter, excellent job

Tim Heimer
Again, nice work on this! Peter warned me about your work. LOL!
