Well its been a while.. nice to get back to some modeling.
I've been working on this old Iterlia kit for the last couple of weeks. I''m about 90% fininshed, just some more odds'n' ends.

looking good so far ricky,

one thing that stands out-given the faded paint(star marking etc-the engine appears to be too clean.

some black and burnt sienna oil washes especially around the cylinder heads will bring them up a treat.

regards

Great job Ricky, your leather looks real, and the hint of grain on the tompson are the things that bring this bike to life, I would agree with Joe, that you need some dust/dirt especially on the inside of the front fender and the front of the motor, also seeing the the muffler is starting to rust I would think that the hard ware holding the muffler would be discoloured from heat
Look forward to seeing the finished product
