    Italeri Triumph 3HW

    Hi Guys and Girls.,
    Been AWOL for a while, been a bit of a bad year so far with 2 close relatives falling off the twig......:crying::crying::crying:, all is well as can be..

    Anyway I have been having a go at this since enjoying the Tamiya Monkey bike that I did for my Son's Birthday.

    Mould lines, release points and general fit not very good, persevered with it and its a Out of the Box Build......

    I have progressed further but not got pictures yet.

    Cheers Mike :sleeping::sleeping::sleeping::sleeping::sleeping:

    Green stuff applied to the tank.....fit was not at all good.

          Morning People,
          Thank you Ralph for your words.

          A small update on the build.
          Bit stressful trying to line things up, but getting there. Must admit Tamiya bike kits are the dogs!!!!!!
          I'm actually painting it with the hairy stick......
          Will try and get a bit more done today and tomorrow morning, back in the UK tomorrow evening for a long weekend.

              I keep taking my one out of the box, looking at it and putting it back!
              I have this evil imp on my shoulder that keeps whispering in my ear "Go On..... Re spoke the wheels.... You know it would look sooooo much better."
              I Smack him one and put the box away... One day maybe when my mojo is in a better place.
              I will watch you build your one and be happy with that!

                  Morning Mike .
                  Said I'd have a look, looks good, so good in fact if it hadn't been for the cutting mat and other bits of give away modelling kit I'd have said it was real ..
                  Building update required please :smiling2:

                      Hi Mike,
                      Good to see you. Sorry to read about your relatives.

                      Another bike build so soon....I get the feeling you really enjoyed that Monkey build! Agree with John, the wheels and tyres look very convincing as do some of the other parts....thought it was a restoration for a minute:thumb2:

                          Hi Mike
                          Sorry to hear of the sad losses.
                          Interesting kit and I'm sure all the work needed will turn it into a great model.
