1/9th Scale WLA Harley build in progress. Creating saddle bags.

March 31, 2023 · in Automotive · · 11 · 0.7K

Hello all,
the 1/9th Scale WLA Harley build continues with more work done on the bike and custom made saddle bags. The bags that come with the kit are essentially plastic boxes, so you should really make your own. I used craft paper, paper glue and acrylic paint. I made the buckles from stretched sprue. Enjoy!

  1. Good progress, Rick, not sure why there aren’t more kits available for modern Harleys, licensing issues maybe, like Ferrari these days.

  2. This is superb craftsmanship, my friend @rickschad!

  3. This looks super realistic, Rick @rickschad

  4. Those are indeed pretty nifty. Everything about this project looks highly realistic. The weathering you have done to the bike itself is really excellent.

  5. Looks great. It goes. together just like the real WLA...
