1/9 Italeri Harley WLA 750

[Casper]

Thank you so much guys much appreciated
well this kit gave me some headaches but she's all but done thankfully just a knob to find for the gear shifter and some watch winders ( scott) for the tank oil and fuel caps. Nothing fits properly in these old Italeri kits and all the parts needs work before you start, square holes for round pegs etc so you have to pre check the fit.
Only weathering was a small amount of diluted Mig engine grime wash around the engine. Not sure how to display it but the mrs wants it next to her Betty Boop collection so no base needed

Very nice! The red shoes really make it stand out.

Superb result Mark

I avoided Italeri and Revell bikes kits back in the day purely as their fit was so poor, which was a real shame as they made some great kit subjects. You certainly beat this one into submission

Very nice. Seat looks great. Whole thing looks great.

Ti's bright and in your face with the red feet but something a little different for a change

Thank you so much Kev
Next up on the Bench another Italeri bike, I must be nuts doing these old kits with all the extra work they require to get them to look half decent. Will post pics later
