Mike Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Forget the 262*, what's the build spec of the new bike then? Can't ride mine at the moment, but I might as well hear about your build to keep my hand in * Which is great, btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xffw45343tg Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 The beautiful model came as no surprise - another work of art. Bike looks amazing too. What's that seat post do? Looks like it is remotely adjustable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robw_uk Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 what no weathering (yet) on the bike.... am sure you will have it all muddy in no time ;-) 262 is a beauty (roll on WHIF2 GB as I have something in mind)...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jynski Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 I really like looking at your painting technics. They are always so realistic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Podmore Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Did you do the 'mottling' freehand or use a template? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honza K. Posted February 21, 2011 Author Share Posted February 21, 2011 Thanks for your comments gentemans! I am really happy that you like it. Here is some little progress... Camo was airbrushed by freehand... sorry for bad photos. . What's that seat post do? Looks like it is remotely adjustable? Yes, I can put it down, when is some downhill part of ride :-) ... I have more space over the bike, when jump.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Yes, I can put it down, when is some downhill part of ride :-) ... I have more space over the bike, when jump.... That's a good idea - there's less danger of nutting yourself with the post lowered. Who makes those then? (262's coming on lovely too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sundown Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Hi Honza, lovely work there! I would like to ask you about your riveting. I guess you use a wheel to create the rivets but do you work with plans or do you just do what looks right to your eye? Cheers, Sean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you use a wheel to create the rivets but do you work with plans or do you just do what looks right to your eye? Cheers, Sean many thanks! I am using a plans, but not i scale. If I see panel and 3 rivets lines on it, calculate three diameters and draw the lines on model. After that make rivets with rivetter by freehand...
