Sky Bike
This is a model I kit-bashed about 90% out of Tamiya bike parts and 10% scratch built. The design was inspired by a short film, called 'Leviathan', that I saw on Youtube some years back.
I have been interested in the building aspect of model making. I love building dirty trucks that look used. Show trucks are great to look at but built-to-look used is what does it for me. I've been building trucks since 2011. Before that I've been building modern military vehicles since 2002. Must say that truck building is fun and nicer on the eyes, if you old chaps know what I mean.
Red Lightening Anti-Gravity Bike

Tamiya Brown Panel Line solution
Mig Black and Light Rust pigments

The Ukrainian 6447 5247H Titan Trailer with The FUG 2.5Ton Forklift
This is basically a 'What-if' project like the other project I did with the M915 Trumpeter kit and burnt-out excavator. The basic kit is the Takom Ukrainian KrAZ-6446 Tractor with MAZ/ChMZAP-5247G Semi-Trailer. I had shorten the chassi of [...]
Hasbro 'Treadspeeder' to Hover Vehicle Toy Transformation
This is the Hasbro tread speeder, that I modified to a desert speeder instead. I sawed off the treads, the toy-like missile launcher and it's mechanism, and other parts that I didn't want and replaced the opened areas with plasti-card and [...]
What - is this an engine?!!!!
From a simple toy model engine, to an almost believable working engine. The photo in the top left corner is the original excavator which is scale 1/24 - 1/25.
Hitachi Vibratory Combined Roller
Finally added the side amber lights and slightly more weathering; and took some outside photos.
