Front suspension on, with the brakes to be finished with some decals. I will paint the fairings Italian red tomorrow. I am happy with the progress so far.

I will use detail these pipes tomorrow.
I have two puppies at home.
I put the first pass of clear coat on the fuel tank.
I went to the Carrara markets today for the first time in decades. I just happened to find a retro model shop there and got these two kits.
I have the handle bars installed now, It's starting to look like a bike.
That's enough for today. Sanded the tyre lines down put the air box into the frame with the engine.
Thanks for letting me know I will see how it goes.
And so begins the 1/12 TAMIYA DUCATI Desmosedici.
The colour change clear worked really well.
All finished.
1/24 Aoshima RN 80 Hilux Custom finished. I added some side steps which was an extra in the kit, for the vertical challenged
I have put down clear coat on the Hilux's tray and it will be put together as soon as it's dry. I am now going to tape the body to put details around the windows and the door handles.
Waiting for the paint to get nice and dry before I put the SMS Solar Flare clear coat over.
I finished the interior and mounted it to the chassis.
Thanks, this kit is good. I thought it would take longer than it has.
Suspension, muffler and differentials all fitted, onto the interior.
Today I have progressed onto the chassis and started the body painting. I have decided to go with a Zero yellow paint, I will also put a SMS Solar Flare clear coat over.
I have started the 1/24 Aoshima RN 80 Hilux Custom. I have primed the body Mr. Oxide Red and the rest I used Mr. Mahogany surfacer.
I have added my old Marantz Stereo system to my workshop. Let's see if I can get some mojo back with some Pulp Fiction.

Thanks, Ironically it's owner is bringing it make tomorrow, as he avoided an accident on the way home from pickup and the Mustang lost its rear vision mirrors.
I have had no time at the work bench for over a month. I have put my last build away as I have no interest in making it at the moment. On a positive note, I am finally giving my first commission build to its owner next week after almost a year. #1/25Revell1969FordMustang
Looks good mate.
If anyone needs these pictures to fix up the place, 1961 National Geographic.
You get that as well, I thought it was just my pc.
Nice build mate.
My Father drove, I think a mark 2 for the Australian army in the late sixties. I am very interested in watching this build.
That is a nice cabinet from your friend, well done mate.
Gday Bluesky, Up on my bench is a leftover parts 29 Ford in 1/25 scale. I have made 2 29 Ford Hot Rods and a 32, so I have many different options for parts. A 3D printed blown Hemi 392 motor is the power plant. I will have to scratch build some of the suspension, lets see how I go.
