Two wheeled sex! The Ducati 916!
Tamiya's Ducati kit with a little carbon fiber and a whole lot of metalizers thrown in, The red is TS 8. This is one of my favorite Tamiya kits and most fun to build! I wrapped stringy epoxy glue around the exhaust to replicate the welds.

Very clean. I love it. I gave my only 916 to a friend as a gift. That was about 5 years ago. It was spray-painted in yellow with pinkish-red tear drops. Thought of building a scratch-built racing 916 from Tamiya kit but till now never realise it.:flamer:

Love it.
I'm going to steal/er borrow yours when I get around to building my yellow one.
BTW, that side detail reminds me how I hate Yuasa batteries. I'll have to make some other decal for my Duc ever since my real Yuasa left me stranded after a very short life, and it was an expensive battery too. |

amazing
Good job , I still can believe it.ITīs so nice! What a work that of the metalizers. I have heard that some golden inks can be used also to better represent matt gold pieces instead of the thick usual paint.
Fantastic work , keep at it . |
