1:12 Aoshima Honda CB400 Four
Another one I've got buttoned up. Thanks to those that followed along with the WIP.
It was almost built box stock - but then I decided to re-spoke the wheels to make them look better. I also added a few resin rivets here and there where they were missing, along with some RB Motion spark plugs. Other than that it’s all kit parts detail painted.
I decided to go for a well used look like an unrestored ‘daily driver’. Something used regularly, but with 40 years worth of use and abuse so there are some marks around the tank etc to add to this effect.

Beautiful build! I'm a big fan of the 'used' look, personally. It adds a lot of 'backstory' to the model. Excellent result.
