Tamiya Honda NSR500 86 Wayne Gardener 1/12


Recommended Posts

Another kit I started about 10 years ago and got put away. It was completed apart from the fairing and seat unit, the paint has crazed abit and I think thats when I put it away.

A thorough rub down of the bodywork and my first use of ZERO colour matched paint, very impressed with the stuff. a final covering of Zero clear coat followed by some careful use of micro mesh.

Apart from the bodywork, its all brush painted. Very pleased with the rothmans blue colour, a good match for the decals.

The decals generally went on ok, the yellow number boards let me down as they tore and became a massive pain in the butt, a bit of touch up paint here and there sorted things.

Very pleased with the overall look of the bike and looks good next to its plastic cousins.

 

Onto the next kit Honda NSR500 84, Airbrushing all the way hopefully and some use of Alclads.
