Blue Bus - Street Drag Special

New here, just gonna start out with a recent build that has kept me in the warm over winter. It is a 1/12  plastic Hyabusa kit. Very similar to a Tamiya kit, but is actualy one of those cheap (& almost nasty) toys you get, semi assembled, with a few screws & a piddlin lil screwdriver.

Stretched the  swingarm, robbed a set of wheels & boots off a Maisto Honda, 4-oned the zorst & shortied the can, lowered front end, modded the tail. Left side pillion, footrest hanger now for the tag mounting, when i get round to printing the plate etc. Paint is Vauxhall, Spectral blue pearl rattle over gloss black, with left over decals raided from a Tamiya kit & liberaly coated with multiple clear coats - Hycote Bodyshop, double acrylic -  Gold is Plasti-kote, brilliant mettalic (photos don't do it justice, actualy quite bright)

Cheers,  Enjoy   -   Art
