Modeling Subjects Autos

I said a long time ago I would post some of the bikes I have done. So I have those. And I also have a dragster that I just finished. Sorry if these come out kinda big.

This is the dragster. I have a ton of pictures of the engine. But there is a couple to give you the idea.


This was a Ninja that got dropped by my brother. I did some patch work and thought I would cover it with some furr. There are some bike clubs where this is the cool thing since they drop them so often.

The R1 was my first model ever. These have been entered in a couple contests and have done well. The R1 has come in first a couple times.

Absolutly great looking work you have there. The top fuel is great. I love the detail on the engine. I have to say though that is the first bike I have seen with fur. Must be a trend that has not caught on down here yet. As many as we have around here that loose it on them , they may want to look into it. I can take you to a stretch of road here that you could probally pick up the pieces and build your own bike. Great work though, look forward to seeing more in the future.

Outstanding! I love the furry Ninja’s exhaust. Is that an actual machined part or is it plastic? If plastic, what did you finish it with?

And give us some low-down on the plumbing for the Dragster engine.
(Please)
It looks great!!

There is a group of riders here called the Star Boyz that do insane stuff on bikes. You can see their bikes (some have fur) at www.starboyz.com. Its pretty cool to see going down the highway at 150mph.

As far as the engine I did A LOT of research. Looked up a lot of pictures online. Went to some places that have some top fuels and looked real close. The problem was that the engine that comes in the box doesnt have enough pieces to make it look real. So I took appart a calculator that was broken and used a lot of pieces from it.

Also In the cases where the kit comes with pipes or tubes I replaced them with real wire. It looks a lot better that way. Sometimes it means cutting the plastic ends and drilling out the ends to put the wire in it.

The Exhaust on the Furry Ninja came like that in the kit. I polished it up a little but It came that way. That furr was a pain to make. I couldnt find leopard skin furr in the rite scale so I bought some furr and used a pen and drew every single stripe. That took me the longest on the bike. Then I just superglued the furr to the body.
