    Yamaha YZR-M1 & McLaren MP4/5B finnished

    Slowly starting to finnish some kits for a change , the YZR was a dream to make and a great learning curve the McLaren was a bit more challenging being nearly 20 yrs old with fit issues etc , both kits were bought cheap of ebay to find my feet before I start a few bike and car/F1 projects when the GB has finnished

    apart from the fag decals on the mclaren both kits were out of the box builds

    any comments good or bad are always welcome

    Cheers

    Richy

      Great work on both.

      Did you make your own bases or did you buy them?

      Regards

        Gorgeous finish, very clean builds which these need to be. Great work, the bar just gets higher on Bikes and Cars Richy and you are the one pushing that bar upwards. Hard act to follow but inspired to try.

              The quality of kits some of you guys put together is amazing. Another two beauties here Richy!

              If things go on like this I think I'll end up sitting at the other end of Graham's bench - only I'll be writing my crosswords and not knitting. All that K1, P2 repetition would remind me far too much of individual track links!

Really like the bases as well, finishes em off a treat mate, hopefully you will do some more bikes cause i think you have em licked buddy....5 Stars for sure :-)

                  Martin I`m sure you have might have seen this before on one of my previous threads , but this is next on the cards after the GB , these bikes are addictive , just hope I can do it it justice with the CF and PE and fork kit , I loved doing the YZR and working with 1/12 scale , might just blogg this one not sure yet ?

                  cheers

                        Excellent work mate, very very nice, the bases really display them well, simple yet effective. Well done. Gareth.
