Oh I see. I though the paint is the same as the one in the cover (blue). Thanks for clarifying that up!
Mrclean- When you see the factory chrome it makes the bike look a little more toyish. it still looks cool, but the chrome is thick and covers the details. Are you going the alclad repaint route?
Hey guys, thanks for all the useful resources and tips. Ali, had I seen your site with all those pictures, I probably would've bought the kit weeks ago!! lol Those are awesome progress pics!
Yeah, I'm definitely going to do the Alclad route. I have 3 Iwata airbrushes, Paasche airbrush booth and Iwata compressor that are all awaiting some action in 2011. Maybe when the weather gets a little warmer, I'll begin.
I definitely am aiming for the dusty weathered look, like after the riverbed bike/truck chase scene in T2. Most of the pics I see of bikes are when they are pristine shiny squeaky clean. I'm definitely looking forward to airbrushing some weathering effects on this bike. Are there any resources to see any reference photos of dusty bikes?
I plan on buying a few "practice" 1/6 tamiya bike kits to practice on before I work on the real deal Fat Boy. I'm not about to mess up a $500 model kit!

@toylion: TFS that vid! Hmm that telephone Harley got a great quality & details on it. I just don't dig the included base but still..
You can detach it, easily.
Oh yeah, someone also told me it's detachable.I wonder if the bike itself will fall on one side if the base was removed from it??
No, it has the thing that every real bike has to keep it from falling.
So no, it doesnt fall.

My M134 from Coomodel just arrived.
Congrats! The best version of M134 IMHO. The details they put on their weapons are just awesome!
Thx, man.
It´s my first 1/6 Gatling, but it´s really high up there, regarding the details.
Pretty much on par with HT, so it´ll fit my Arnie great, but I guess I´ll keep the round steel part underneath it.
It defines it imo...
