I've done some more work and nearing being finished. I still want to look for any touch-ups needed, and also need to do the highlights. Then I'll spray it to make it ready for the decals, which have still not arrived (very frustrating, but not surprising with the local mail service - I'm sure they're sitting in a mail bag waiting to be sorted somewhere).



She's starting to look like a police motorcycle now.

Argh! I was also set to spray the gloss coat to make it ready for the decals and realized I'd forgotten to put tail lights on it! Yep, my police cruiser would have to pull him over for non-working, or actually missing taillights!!! ;D

Anyway, back tot he drawing boards to figure the best way to make them, and finally decided to use a piece of a spar from a knight figure (I always replace cast spears with brass wire or you end up with spaghetti. So made a couple of taillights, at 1 MM size, and as I was attaching the first one - SPROING, there it went as it snapped out from the tweezers and went flying across the room.  :'(  Needless to say trying to find a 1 MM taillight in carpet is a pretty hopeless cause so I made another one.

They have now been installed so no risk of a ticket there!!! I'll paint them shortly and it should be ready to gloss coat.

Pictures soon,

Here's the police motorcycle finished, except for the basing, for my post apocalyptic Law army.









Hard to see the star on the gazzoline tank as it's only 2 MM  in size.

Nice paint job. For some reason it reminds me PC McGarry number 452 the Trumpton apocalyptic years
If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!
