Made my first-ever scale model of an automobile - a Rajdoot motorcycle

It is a 1:16 scale model and since it was my first effort, the finishing is rough.

BHPian ArTigor recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

I tried my hand at making a Rajdoot Scale model last year. It is approximately at 1:16 scale. It is my first effort hence there are rough finishes.

Materials used

  • Foam sheet
  • Empty pen refills
  • Steel wires
  • Electrical wire (thin) and foil
  • Moving parts are the wheels and handle

Took me approximately 2.5 full days time.

Why a Rajdoot? It was the first ever automobile I kick-started when I was a high-school-going boy.

Here are the pictures.
