Honda Z50JZ Takegawa Special 1(Aoshima 1:12)
All parts. The Chrome Parts are allready stripped from the Chrome
Working Hazard
The seat is not really detailed. The original seat has rivets. First I though just to paint them on. But....
I Made the rivets myself out of 1mm round styrol beam. Just tip the edge in a flame.
Drilled Holse for the rivet and glued them in.
The seat is finished. The Rivets made really a difference
The moment I wanted to assemble the tire on the rim I realized, that they have no air valves.
I Build them myself with some wire
I Build them myself with some wire
Finished tires
The next thing I realized was that the brake didn't have a linkage. And again I'm building one myself
Could have been better but it's my first time
This is my Idea how it should be in the end. Hope it will look ok, after all my parts wouldn't have that much details on it
scratchbuil brake linkage
Painted rear fender. Unfortunatly I have to repaint it. The Color react with the clear coat
The Model doesn't come with an spark Plug and ignition cable. So I have to scratchbuild it.
Glueing the carrier was an adventure itself. If I would be this kit again i would build it without the carrier.
The Exhaust before attaching the Decals
The Clamp is build out of Aluminium Tape. Exhaust with Decals and allready attached to the model
Scratchbuild petcock
Finished Tank
Tank with attached petclock. I have already drilled a hole in the carburator for the petrol tube
Finished. The cable ties at the handlebar are made out of elecrical tape.

Album info
Small Motorcycle. The Modelkit is not very detailed and shoud be easy to build. I think I will make some modification to get better results.
