scratchbuilt 1/5th scale "MV125 GTLS Agusta in Metal"

[Guest]

Yeap pictures are the best reference I have and my trusty Didital camera !

What I do is find the real subject be it a car or motorcycle in a museum or private collection and spend a good couple of days measuring it from top to bottom recording the measurments next to roughly prepared sketches .

I also take at least several hundred photos , once I get back to the workshop I draw everything up on my CAD Program adding the measurements I took , very drawn out process and not for the undedicated !!!

Aha! Cad program + measurements + hundreds of pictures is the way to your quality modelling. Just one more question: did the owner let you strip his bike down?

:grinball2:

P.S. I will appreciate if you would share your resin moulding technique. I need to learn it to duplicate my scratch built tiny pieces. What resin do you use, where can I buy it etc.

Regards,
