Airfix BMW R69

This is an ancient offering from Airfix, no scale given but its 1/9th or 1/10th I guess.
Looks a little bare under the tank, the space is quite large, no chrome on this at all, so it was all to paint.

Vincent Black Shadow

Here is a model of The Vincent Black Shadow.
1:12 scale from Revell.
This is attempt no 2 at this model, the first many years ago went in the bin.
Inspired by Trevor from Whitby I bought another and had a go.
Still not a patch on yours Trevor!
