Hi all

It's the Airfix "Honda 500cc" 1/24th scale.
The kit went together very nicely but the decals were a to put on as the model in the instruction sheet is standing upright. After some prodding managed to get them the best I could after them lifting 3 or 4 times.











The rider is Valentino Rossi winning "Grand Prix de France", Le Mans, 20th May 2001 on his
Nastro Azzuro Honda.

Hope you like it

Just an update to show the bike on a base.




I made it out of old CD's with fine sandpaper glued onto it as the road.
I was going to hand paint the finnish line but decided to use a sticky label insted

Good job, you came away with something so you can hold your head high for that.

Well done.
