If you hadn't showed pictures with this in your hand - I'd swear it was a real bike! I can't get over it - I had to look at each of these photos long enough to absorb the fact that this isn't lifesized. Great job on the weathering, and damage - it makes it look even more realistic!

Maybe a picture of a squirrel playing a harmonica will make you feel better?

Thanks Bob. I'm lookin' for a faded as opposed to scraped look but that worked great for you. Nice to see  one of those bikes done other than stock.

Thank you ,Krow113

krow113, After I applied the decals I sealed them with a clear gloss. Then used the edge of  a rough nail file file and and scraped it. I tried not to go past the primer under the yellow. Then washed it with a dirty brown/black artist oil and thick thinner.

 

I have seen that mutant wip, nice work very cool.
