Wow! Impressive, particularly the charging bull div sign. If the figure is a dedicated DonR, I'm a bit surprised the maker didn't supply him wearing "Pantaloons Motorcyclists" (riding breeches) and the tall lace-up riding boots. I used to wear a pair of the breeches many years ago to ride my bike. They have a tough canvas inner leg and are surprisingly comfortable to wear rather than gathered in normal trousers. He should also have white over blue (Royal Signals colours) arm bands. However if he is an internal regimental rider these are optional.

Wow is the word, what a total beauty…but surely you also got some more painting to do before dust & dirt e.g. t*res, saddle etc.? I know nothing, but is that green bright enough…?

The kit does supply a fig like that but he is standing and so didn't fir my needs for this scenerio. This guy is supposed to be a rider working within the Northants so I may have some wiggle room here.

Jerry,

I think there were around 8-10 Motorcycles within an Armd Regt so that works well.

Just kidding, I really don’t know what the “right” colour range should be – just seems a tad more ‘69 than ‘44 but weathering will doubtless moderate

Jerry, the Triumph really is a triumph! A thing of beauty.

I had one of these (there's two in the box) in mind for my Italian scene - and who knows? But I'm not looking forward to building the thing...

I'm always in awe of your work Jerry.

Can I ask what colour you use for the base of your flesh shade?

Beautiful Jerry , love the m/c and the fig. paint up is your usual brilliance !!!

Superb as always Jerry. Don't know about the shiny mud, I can't see it you are your own worst critic! In any case the weather was pretty bad in Normandy from what I've read, alternating between heavy rain and choking dust, so wet mud may have been hanging around on the unsurfaced roads.

Once again, great work Jerry.
I started on the same kit (bike) for a small project a while ago and messed up the wheels so it's back in the box until I can find a suitable replacement.
Looking forward to seeing him in his place with the others.

Cheers

Sean

Looks great Jerry.

One small error in one of your replies toms are the customers of ladies of the night.
