Exhaust is almost finished, still need to paint the "heatstains".
Handlebar is also done, came out nice.
I managed to fix the carbonfiber decal, i used more smaller pices this time.
I replaced the chaintensioners with T2M photoetch pieces.

Honda RC211V 2002 & 2003 (5)
I've started to apply the main decals on the -02 Honda, those old Tamiya decals are a real pain in the ass.. Very fragile.

Honda RC211V 2002 & 2003 (2)
Time for update on these two Hondas i'm working on.
'02 fairings are ready for the main paint. I'll be using Zero Paints white as a base, and then met. blue and Repsol orange.
Chains are almost ready, i still need detail them with a brush. One rear fender remains black, carbon fiber decal for the other one.
Exhaust pipe seams are filled with Mr Surfacer 500

Recent changes
I decided to change the language to english on my blog, because i also write to, two Finnish forums www.pienoismallit.net and www.fcma.fi.
At the moment i write mainly about MotoGP bikes, also classic american cars and F1 cars are close to heart.
I welcome old and new readers to my blog. Comments and suggestions are welcome.
