This bike was built in conjunction with an Iron Man kit at the beginning of June 2013 as part of Scale Model Addicts 'Big Spring Contest 2013' in the Vehicle category.

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)
Final Images
