Thanks Leon and T ! Made a bit more progress, one setback however as I broke one tiny fragile pe part, so I had to scratch another (better) one. Tomorrow's a day off so this baby will be finished ! The Platformwagen is ready for further weathering stages.

Hi guys, a friend on another forum asked me what the scale of the bike is, so I made this pic and I like to share it here too. Greetz ! AG.

So, what does that picture tell us? It's 1/16 and you've got really massive hands?

I have massive hands Dierk, and the bike is 1/6 scale lol ! This is where I'm at, didn't finish the build today due to some setbacks during the last steps, but I'm getting there. Best regards ! AG

DAMN! I was so behind that I had to scroll thru 5 or 6 pages. Brilliant work on EVERYTHING. Is there anything that you can not do now?

Nice! But I have to shed a tear for the poor oilpan - you drilled a hole in it and killed it

I killed the oil pan with a lethal toothpick Dierkbro.

I think that's where the drain plug goes!

If it's 1/6th, it's the Mini Moto version! Cheers, M

Thank you guys ! Thanks fellers, time for the flatbed again. I applied a dirty, brown wash (Raw umber). I was lucky as the wash also went between the wood of the flatbed here'n there, creating some realistic effects (hope you think the same ?). Best regards ! AG.

That looks ultra cool Guy! BTW: I saw a cool idea a few years back on how to recreate the knot where a branch would've been in planks - drill a hole, stick in a tooth pick and cut off the bit that sticks out. Might be an idea for the next flatbed?

Love the drums!! You nailed with the colors especially how it should be brighter on the top due to fading from sun and weather.

Thanks guys, there's a lot to do before I can call them done so every free moment I can be found in my hobby room. Today I added little rivets to the seats of the bike and tomorrow it will be airbrushed in its base colors. The flatbed needs a bit more detail too, more coming up soon.
