I know I haven't posted on BPT at all for a fair while now and know that this thread will be overlooked too but thought I could give people a little update both about my projects and personal life.

I've been adding little bits to renders but haven't really been motivated to work on many projects lately as I have been working a lot more to save up for something. I don't think anyone here knows a great deal about me but at the very least might have heard I like motorcycles. For christmas I paid for my dad's basic motorcycle training course which is a legal requirement to get a motorcycle license in this state and a few weeks ago he went and bought his dream bike, a Honda CB750 Four Super Sport, after I found an ad for a great dealer in Melbourne. As it happens the bike is nearly identical to the 750 four he had when he was younger, a 1978 CB750F. Two weeks later I found my dream bike at a price I could afford, a 2009 Yamaha R1, also in Melbourne.
I am planning to make a 3D model of both our bikes at some stage though starting with dad's as it doesn't have large sweeping surfaces as with mine.

No doubt people have at least seen there is a model kits thread as well which I started after getting back into the hobby. I've given it a rest at the moment after some decals bubbling or tearing on the Ta 152 but I do plan to design some of my own kits for resin casting. Of the kits I am hoping to make, at the very least I want to make my bike. Tamiya do some great motorcycle kits and there are a lot of diecast options out there as well but absolutely nothing for the generation of my R1.
So that's all. TLDR nothing surprising from me, not being motivated to model anymore etc.
