Thinking a red stripe down the leg might help too

Definitely a Hayabusa and not a Ninja.
The one-time world's fastest bike.

And potholes, don’t forget potholes

Actually, adding a manhole, some white line paint and some leaves would resonate with motorcyclists...

Don't forget an empty crisp packet, some diesel and a fosters can

Mate of mine does model cars.
He uses fine sandpaper as a base, and goes over it with one of those double ended hard erasers to give it a 'driven on' look.

If you really want it to resonate with motorcyclists, you'll need to add sound....

Revving the arrse off a hairdryer as if it were the start line at Brands Hatch not a quiet suburban street should do it. Obviously you'd need some kind of time control as well to make sure it only 'goes off' at 7am on a Sunday.

As an aside...
A local boozer. Note the slope on the left.

One day, when the place was packed, some girly in the full shiny leathers pitched up on a shiny-as-hell Harley.
Very much a 'look at me' type.
Stopped on the ramp, and must have stalled it a dozen times trying to getup the slope.
Eventually she managed - to rousing applause.

Are you my neighbour that has to listen to that every Sunday? Guy has an absolute mint RC30 and no wonder as it gets rolled out his shed every week, started, revved up, goes thirty yards to paper shop and back and put away!!!! Criminal if you ask me.

the glass being assembled using masking tape to hold it in place as the glue dries.

some grass laid on and into PVA glue to give the impression of a grass verge creeping slowly over the tarmac surface.

I stand corrected, it is a Hayabusa, not a Ninja.

I was thinking of another sort of mark on her legs!

I used to live very close to the Blue Peter. Great place

as per Helm's suggestion, a hint of white drybrushing into the hair followed by a wash of brown.

finally, a test fit of the glass dome over the cardboard bottom PVA glued to the wood diorama base.

Was going to say I've used wet & dry as a road/airfield base before.

there will be more Motorcycle Sluttery coming soon with this white metal figure matched up with...

this classic british Motorbike and classic Airfix kit by the way. The kit is part made from a way back, you may remember it. the figure is 80mm tall, so she should be able to handle it.
