Album info
Absolutely loving this build, never thought I would enjoy making a figure as much. I have had this running in the background whilst waiting for paints and decals to dry on other builds.
***** A TIP *****
You will need some sort of decal fix solution to get the water slide transfers to adhere to the textured body and helmet.
RRP on this figure is crazy at around £35.00 but I got mine off ebay and paid less than half of that. Kit includes figure, a mounting base for the bike depicting Rossi banked over and a few extra parts for use with the 14117 Tamiya YZR-M1 09 kit (available seperately) to mimic the suspension being compressed whilst cornering.
Painted by hand using Tamiya Acrylics, painting is complete and I am just applying the numerous decals, the helmet is particulary difficult to do and luckily it gives you two along with two sets of decals so I am using one as a practice run.
***** A HEADS UP!!!!! *****
IF YOU WANT TO USE THIS FIGURE WITH THE BIKE ENSURE YOU HAVE THIS KIT BEFORE BUILDING THE BIKE!
