MV Augusta - Revell 1/9th

[WebbyNZ]

Greeting and salutations.
Ive been very very slack with WIP shots of my 2 entries between digital camera's breaking down, short bench stints with little progress and goold old fashioned laziness.
But that is about to change, ive got a new camera that ive been using and uploading everything to photobucket, so here they come.
Ill start with the pics from the old camera that died.

Entry Pic

There are not that many parts on this one considering the size.
The detial is also not that flash but the flash is deffinatley there

Quick mock so I know it should end up looking like a bike

Primer, primer and more primer, including some spoons for colour tests so i can decide which paints to use.

Suspension had bad moulding and worse flash so saded it back and added wire to make spring.

At this point my camera packed up so pics were few and far between, and none were of the bike so we jump ahead to the new camera and catch up with the base coat of Model Air 'Black Metal' down and a coat of Alclad Mirrored Gold for Lexan over that (no issues with paint conflicts thanks to the spoon tests)

Front wheel done, have you guessed the theme yet?

Frame together with engine fitted

Now 90% of the body is together, most of this will be hidden under the farings.

And the completed kit (deffinatley a case of completion over perfection)

Better pics to come if the sun ever decides to show, apparently we went way over our cap for sunlight during summer here in NZ

That came out looking pretty good bro... if I have to guess the theme... I would have to say either Barney the Dinosuar or Iron Man, but just can't quite put my finger on which... they are just too close to call! Great job my friend!
