is it wrong to use neon on a motorbike - well yes...but not on this one! double rear nean tail lights - added!  general whiteboxing still.

Nice details, man! Laughing out loud

The tread on the tyres look a little odd to me...are you using ref for them?

No - I prob need to do some proper tyres for it but not too sure what to go with at the moment -kind of just gone for simplistic cartoony shizzle at the moment.

Wow - the weeks are flying by. I have been saving up a little deposit for ya'll! Been working on an engine. Tried initially to build something inside the frame and it didn't work out - so using quite a lot o' ref - built an engine in isolation that I am now going to hack into the frame! Heres the first pass at that!
