    Very nice polux love the weathering very subtle and very realistic, Grey is supposed to be one of the hardest colours to make look realistic and i can say without a doubt you have nailed it straight to the wall.

        Hi all again!

        This little bike will be the last vehicle on this diorama.

        I copy Alan's dio..... sorry friend, you give me a nice idea!!

        I build the little brake and engine cables.... uffff....it give a time

        Any comments or suggestion about the colour? I suppose the grey colour is the best option.....but the camo on the photo is very nicely

        Thanks for looking

          I would think grey in keeping with the theme Polux. Looks to be a nice little kit, look forward to seeing it painted.

              I second that. I think it will stand out to much in the (very nice) camouflage. It might also work as a rusty wreak in the shadows....

                I'd stick with grey to maintain the theme Polux.

                Although I quite like Ian's idea of a rusty bike leaning against a wall or something.

                  Mmmm!

                  Nice idea Ian (and Colin)!!

                  A rusty bike under the wood stairs, for example....

                  Ok! Today I will go with the brush... let's see what happens

                  Thanks guys!

                          Looking as good as ever Polux. How about grey undercoat with a yellow topcoat that is very badly worn and scuffed etc ?

                              I do a undercoat of iron color. Then I prepare all for a chipping effect (topcoat with grey colour). Seems all ok...but then happen an unexpected thing...I fall sleep waiting for the dry time !!! now is all dry, so don't want to do more colour coats.

                              I'm working with it now doing umbers and washes. Looks nice to me!

                              Thanks

                                I don't know how you do it Polux but you do it good mate.
