The Complete Lineage

CUSTOM ORDER

Your bike's engine, custom parts and all, in 1/6 scale.

Working from photos of your bike, I build everything in 1/6 scale, from the engine itself to the smallest custom parts. With close attention to form, paint and aging, I recreate the details that make your bike yours.

What I recreate

  • Custom parts such as the carburetor and air cleaner
  • Fin shapes and fine machining details
  • Paint, chrome, rust and oil stains
  • A dedicated display base with your bike's or shop's name

My craft

  • Every part designed in 3D and sculpted down to the finest detail
  • Shapes and colors refined by comparing against photos of the real bike
  • Painting and aging finished by hand

About Us

My custom motorcycle models, which I made as a hobby, became popular on social media,
and I started receiving requests like, "I'd like you to make a model of my bike too."

At 30, I introduced a 3D printer, expanding my production capabilities.

I bring to life the "feelings" that cannot be expressed with off-the-shelf products.
