Motorcycle Diorama Vol.2
It's 1/3 the size of the garage I made the other day, and I added a figure doll to make it feel like a vignette.
Build the Harley davidson
AMF era FXS lowrider shovelhead.
The model year is unknown, but it is a 1340cc model after 1979.
Lowrider is a representative of Harley-davidson.
Imai model Harley made an EVO before, but it felt a lot overscaled, so I thought there wouldn't be a second one, but this kit is very well made, and there is a third one. I changed my mind.
engine relation
The engine looks like an early shovelhead engine.
The carburetor of this era was made in Japan, but the carburetor of the kit looks like a mixture of Linkart and Bendix.
When I looked it up, the cabs in the early days in Japan were of the Bendix type, so I tried to make them in the Bendix style.
I added a lot of details such as the engine.
It's my fourth Harley, so I've gotten used to it without worrying too much about it.
1/12 figure doll making
Maschinen Krieger's figure doll, Miracle Girl 12 garage kit.
It's been a while since I made prototype kits for Mr. Takeya, Mr. Nirasawa, Mr. Oniki, and Mr. Kito from Fewture Models when I was a student.
I bought a 10-20x stereoscopic microscope so that I can paint in more detail.
Please look forward to the next work!
making small items
•Small lifter
I used the British MCL500 lifter as a reference.
•floor
concrete.
It's an old floor with mortar poured over bricks.
• Oil mug
It is an old TEXACO oil jug.
I made it with a marker pen cap and putty, an aluminum plate, and a brass pipe.
Complete image
It is an image of a female rider changing clothes to ride a Harley after maintenance, or a female mechanic changing clothes for Harley maintenance.
Since it's a vignette that cuts out a part of the diorama, I tried putting in about 3 types of things that symbolize the place.
tips
It is difficult to accurately cut plastic plates and plastic rods, drill holes, and glue them vertically and horizontally, so it is necessary to strike a balance somewhere.
Cut the cut end to a length of about 1 mm and file it.
If the thickness is about 2mm, it will be difficult to drill vertically, so please use a desktop mini drilling machine.
I used a 0.2mm, 2/3 needle, 0.06MPa airbrush for figure doll painting.
Thank you all of you!!
