      Well apart from the background Tim I thought it was real. Splendid work all round.

          Superb result Tim, like the others said with a different background it'll be for real.:thumb2::thumb2:
          Looking forward to see your Gandalf.

            Hi Fernando
            Thanks bud, I’ll post Gandalf when he’s done (unless he comes out badly, then I’ll conveniently forget).
            Cheers
            Tim

              Seriously Tim, if I didnt know this was a model I would have mistaken it for the real thing. A very tidy build. Glad you had a lot of fun with it.

                Wow, thanks Steve..appreciate that comment a lot.

                I’m amazed no one noticed that the CB750F decal on the number plate support is crooked :flushed: Perhaps you were all too kind to mention it....

                  Hi Tim
                  A cracking result. Despite its short comings you have made a model to be very proud of.

                    Hi Jim
                    Many thanks for the kind comment. I keep looking at it and seeing things I could improve....something to work towards for the next one....seems to have struck a chord with some though....

                                Thanks Tony, appreciate the sentiment.......of course, Tamiya kits always make a clean build easier to achieve.....
