Absolutely awesome, Joe
I knew you would do something cool with the bike.
It's just too bad they weren't going the other direction
Little tip about Harleys, They have two sides, the exhaust side is considered the good looking side and the primary side is considered the ugly side.
But being an Army bike it works either way, and I love what you did here.
I might just have to send you some more of these bikes, (actually I need to send you a Testors/Italeri version, they are a little more accurate than the Tamiyas)
I bought a lot of Tamiyas, they were more available and a little cheaper
love to see you do a civilian version.
Jim
PS: could you show a package picture of the clay you use and where you get it, I would like to give that stuff a try. Thanks

Jim PS: could you show a package picture of the clay you use and where you get it, I would like to give that stuff a try. Thanks I get the clay on Amazon... DAS Air-Hardening Modeling Clay - White Air Dry Clay 2.2lb Block - Pliable Air Clay for Sculpting and Coating - Easy to Use Air Dry Modeling Clay for All Ages for $8.98 a package. Easy to work but do it in small areas at a time so it doesn't dry before you can carve or scribe it!!! Fun stuff!!!  As to the bikes offer you are more than kind my friend!!! Tell Leslie hello for me!!! |

Thanks Joe
I do more ebay than Amazon, so I found it there around $12-$13 free shipping.
Not wanting it to sit on a shelf too long, I will probably wait til I'm ready to try some.
Once again, great Diorama
Jim
ps: Leslie says hi, she digs your work also

Shelf stable if you put it in a ziplock bag... I've been using this one for over a year! You can always add a bit of water to keep it pliable while working with it if it is drying to fast due to heat...
Please thank Leslie for me!!!
