Tamiya 1/6 Yamaha YZ250 Motocrosser


Recommended Posts

This was a straight from the box build - the only deviations from standard being the addition of the Tamiya upgrade chain, and the different number stickers which were needed because the original transfers fell to bits.

Excellent build and really well photo'd to show it at it's best, top job!

 

I still can't decide if you've photoshopped the lady rider on or if she's a model (a 1/6th scale one! :) )

 

Really good work!

Keith, There's no digital manipulation in any of the photos - the rider is a 1/6th scale action figure. The only 'photoshopping' I do is to use FaceApp to make the girl smile.

Ah that's lovely, it looks great in the outdoors like that.

I was too chicken to weather mine when I built it but did fool quite a few friends with a pic of it outside my garage. Midlife crisis ahoy!

Will, I kept mine nice and shiny to start with, but I really wanted to do an outdoor shoot with it and it just wouldn't have looked realistic without some dirt on it. That's my excuse anyway.

Amazing model, rellay very well executed and suberpy photographed. Congratulations

Maybe the bottom part of the bike needs a little more dust and dirth for more realism...

airea - I like to err on the light side with dirt - it's easier to put more on than it is to take it off if you over do it.
