Back in with a bike model and finishing off my first proper tank.

[Guest]

This is quite a bit further along now, it's taken a while and recent events leaving me single have put a damper on many things hence the lack of photo updates, I've been doing bits and pieces as and when I could focus and to help keep my mind occupied.

Will get some 'current stage' pics up shortly, it's not far off complete

OK, update pics so far, (almost complete, hopefully the last few elements will go on tomorrow and I can finish off he tank too and get on with the next couple, I'm pretty sure i've decided which i'm attacking next and looking forward to both)

LHS engine and frame:

Swingarm, rear sprocket and drivechain:

Top of rear bank of cylinders through frame rails:

RHS frame and engine showing the oil level window, (this is the second one i've detailed and am really pleased with this little touch, never seen anyone else do this on a bike model so i'm patenting this detail technique, :P ):

Underside of engine showing starter motor, oil filter canister and exhausts:

Drivechain detailing and swingarm / exhausts / rear disc, you can also just see the coild spring painted red to reflect powder coating as you'd see on a full size:
