The richness of detail is impressive

Nicely put together video. That’s definitely on the Xmas list for this year. It’ll go with my z1300, xs1100 midnight, and Suzuki katana. Excellent build. Can’t believe the detail. I’ve just done a full restoration on a full size 1983 Honda and some of these photos looked like that did during rebuild. Well done

Thank you! Yes, this kit really impressed me with quality and level of detail. I really enjoyed this build and I think you will too

Beautiful build!

Thank you 😀

Congratulations!! I'm about to start building the same model, this is my first time ever, I hope I could do it like you. As I'm a newbie I didn't know that I had to buy paint and glue... hahaha

[@philair1]

Thank you :) This is just my third model and the paint job improves a bit each time 🤣 Still have a lot to learn. You are going to enjoy building this great kit!

[@pablomonterroso2542]

@Philip B Thank you Philip! All the details seems to be very entertaining, how long did it take you? 🤔 I'm still confused with the list of paints required (like 35 I think), do you really use all?

[@philair1]

@@pablomonterroso2542 I took my time and build when I had the time. I just checked the photos I took, and it looks like it took about 3 months for me. But as I said I didn't stress to get it finished. You can see the photos here: photos.app.goo.gl/Y7zc8zwgb1z29Ws69
