Hi, this is my new proyect...
http://img181.imageshack.us/img181/9637/smart999lo5rp6.jpg
a ducati 999, based in the imola gp bike.
In one of my last proyects, I made a sketch of this bike, but I decided to paint the bike yellow, but I wanted to build this bike from the sketch too, my sketch is inspired by other sketck from a ducati website:
http://img440.imageshack.us/img440/8359/ijjimu9cb2.png
Im going to use a NEW-RAY DUCATI 999 F05, because it os more agressive than the stock 999, there are really a lot of diferences between them, so this is the bike:

Of course Im going to make it single side swingarm.

I really like your ideas and work but aren't these builds more suitful for the diecast sub-forum?

Yes, you are right, because I make more die-cast model modifications than kit builds, but I want to learn from guys like you, and this is the major ligue forum to learn, your comments are really helpful, and I feel there is no motorcycle pasion in the die-cast sub-forum, besides Im trying to make more scratchbuilding and this is the site to learn this, you will see, this bike is gonna be cool, Im going to scratchbuild the mh900e swing arm, the tail section, etc.
I want in the near future build concept bikes, I want to make in scale model some sketches we see in some webpages, like Glynn Kerr sketches, and some models simulating clay models.

can see here the main diferences, the frame, the wider fairing, the suspension, well, almost everythig:
http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/7194/hh007ga3.jpg (http://img156.imageshack.us/my.php?image=hh007ga3.jpg)
Tail section, tank cover and winshield are wider too:
http://img116.imageshack.us/img116/4069/hh006qz2.jpg (http://img116.imageshack.us/my.php?image=hh006qz2.jpg)
So first thing to do is nake the bike, and primer the pieces:
http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/9216/f016xc1.jpg (http://img254.imageshack.us/my.php?image=f016xc1.jpg)
http://img116.imageshack.us/img116/2490/f020xm3.jpg (http://img116.imageshack.us/my.php?image=f020xm3.jpg)
Im going to take some elements from sketches from Pierre Terblanche, due Im trying to make a concept bike, no a race or street bike, it is a show bike, Ill make the tail like the second option:
http://img367.imageshack.us/img367/5489/15465043iw3.jpg (http://img367.imageshack.us/my.php?image=15465043iw3.jpg)
And the front like the next sketch:
http://img367.imageshack.us/img367/1748/26043042di7.jpg (http://img367.imageshack.us/my.php?image=26043042di7.jpg)
Tank cover is going to be like this:
http://img367.imageshack.us/img367/763/64579735og3.jpg (http://img367.imageshack.us/my.php?image=64579735og3.jpg)
So here are the preliminar marks to begin cutting:
http://img128.imageshack.us/img128/5171/ghghbr1.jpg (http://img128.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ghghbr1.jpg)
http://img128.imageshack.us/img128/9494/jkjkpd9.jpg (http://img128.imageshack.us/my.php?image=jkjkpd9.jpg)
http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/746/g029hk1.jpg (http://img254.imageshack.us/my.php?image=g029hk1.jpg)
And the right tools for the job:
http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/9799/h008uv8.jpg (http://img254.imageshack.us/my.php?image=h008uv8.jpg)
Here is a pre-assembly to check the resul:
http://img56.imageshack.us/img56/8163/g032zc0.jpg (http://img56.imageshack.us/my.php?image=g032zc0.jpg)
http://img393.imageshack.us/img393/213/g037wc5.jpg (http://img393.imageshack.us/my.php?image=g037wc5.jpg)
http://img56.imageshack.us/img56/9629/g036he1.jpg (http://img56.imageshack.us/my.php?image=g036he1.jpg)
http://img393.imageshack.us/img393/1482/h003zv0.jpg (http://img393.imageshack.us/my.php?image=h003zv0.jpg)
Im going to add a mesh grille in the front fender:
http://img56.imageshack.us/img56/7899/g038xv6.jpg (http://img56.imageshack.us/my.php?image=g038xv6.jpg)
Now I have to add a little piece of 3mm styren to make the tail longer foward and sand:
http://img56.imageshack.us/img56/7456/h018gt9.jpg (http://img56.imageshack.us/my.php?image=h018gt9.jpg)
Im thinking I can open the ehaust exit and add a mesh grille to make a big single exit, or to divide ot in two section like in one of the Terblanche sketches:
http://img56.imageshack.us/img56/4627/h019ui0.jpg (http://img56.imageshack.us/my.php?image=h019ui0.jpg)
Now its time to cut off the rear suspension, I want to save it complete to use it in a tamiya yamaha ow01.
http://img264.imageshack.us/img264/2003/h012ha9.jpg (http://img264.imageshack.us/my.php?image=h012ha9.jpg)
http://img376.imageshack.us/img376/336/h014gw0.jpg (http://img376.imageshack.us/my.php?image=h014gw0.jpg)
I have to detail the tank housing for the cushioned inserts, a lot of sanding in all parts:
http://img264.imageshack.us/img264/719/h015bq4.jpg (http://img264.imageshack.us/my.php?image=h015bq4.jpg)
And now the most difficult part, to scratch build the rear swing arm, reference photo:
http://img83.imageshack.us/img83/9008/stuff027au2.jpg (http://img83.imageshack.us/my.php?image=stuff027au2.jpg)
http://img141.imageshack.us/img141/5089/f15it3.jpg (http://img141.imageshack.us/my.php?image=f15it3.jpg)
Need to find styrene tubing to build the swing arm.
Im trying to decide how to make the exhaust exits, here are some ideas:

You are building this as a model kit. This site is not named "plastic model kit only message board". I feel you are 100% welcome! I enjoy reading and trying to learn from your posts. Keep up the good work.

Thanks TWOWHEELSRULE, You are right, I build them as a kit, I dont just re-paint, I try to apply some techniques I see here from others, and this is one of the best forums to show motorcycle building, the intention is to share all kind of techiques, I like your nickname, TWOWHEELSRULE, because I also like bicycles, so Im going to scratchbuild some downhill 1/12 bicycles as well.
Lets build!

This is my progress so far, I got styrene tubing in diferent diameters,made the marks and began bending, ist hard because I have to be trying and tryng the piece whit the chain, complete tire and brake disk Tto make sure the chain doesnt touch anything, Ialready bent the rim:
http://img365.imageshack.us/img365/4444/ff006tz8.jpg (http://img365.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ff006tz8.jpg)
http://img365.imageshack.us/img365/834/ff008wh5.jpg (http://img365.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ff008wh5.jpg)
http://img512.imageshack.us/img512/5672/ff009yz9.jpg (http://img512.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ff009yz9.jpg)
http://img365.imageshack.us/img365/5946/ff010fw6.jpg (http://img365.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ff010fw6.jpg)
http://img363.imageshack.us/img363/6456/ff013kr3.jpg (http://img363.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ff013kr3.jpg)
http://img363.imageshack.us/img363/3411/ff015qv8.jpg (http://img363.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ff015qv8.jpg)
Its ready, now I have a lot to sand and detail to mahe it look welded, and to make the shock atachments, and the ones to the frame.
http://img365.imageshack.us/img365/4493/ff017cx7.jpg (http://img365.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ff017cx7.jpg)
http://img363.imageshack.us/img363/8357/ff018ar3.jpg (http://img363.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ff018ar3.jpg)
http://img363.imageshack.us/img363/8380/ff020ld8.jpg (http://img363.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ff020ld8.jpg)
And here is the fairings, already painted, now I have to add some red and black, details, and letters, but a lot to do in engine, frame, exhaust, etc.
http://img363.imageshack.us/img363/4059/ff021ez4.jpg (http://img363.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ff021ez4.jpg)
I almost finish the swingarm, still needs more sanding, and details:
http://img54.imageshack.us/img54/5416/dd001mq2.jpg (http://img54.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dd001mq2.jpg)
I painted some details in flat black, all paints are from a can, and I began shaping the tree piece foamed seat parts, they are going to be like retro seat color:
http://img54.imageshack.us/img54/7461/dd003jg0.jpg (http://img54.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dd003jg0.jpg)
At this point the bike has nothing to do with the original or my last ducati build:
http://img206.imageshack.us/img206/3848/dd004yd9.jpg (http://img206.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dd004yd9.jpg)
http://img54.imageshack.us/img54/7703/dd006ne3.jpg (http://img54.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dd006ne3.jpg)
http://img169.imageshack.us/img169/2323/dd007cq8.jpg (http://img169.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dd007cq8.jpg)
Good bye to red frame, its ready to become holand blue:
http://img206.imageshack.us/img206/4010/dd005ks8.jpg (http://img206.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dd005ks8.jpg)
Here is a preview, I guess when I add the red is going to look terrific!
Im going to aply a little, lttle, little layer of silver, I want the bike to look more white than silver.
http://img54.imageshack.us/img54/1054/dd008sz6.jpg (http://img54.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dd008sz6.jpg)

Little update, Already put in place the swing arm, it was difficult to aligne, I just glued one side, I cant glue de rigth side because I need to put the engine in, I was checking chain clearance, and everything is OK. Needs more sanding and smoothing, and to paint blue:
http://img81.imageshack.us/img81/2338/ll001rl2.jpg (http://img81.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ll001rl2.jpg)
http://img229.imageshack.us/img229/5445/ll003el9.jpg (http://img229.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ll003el9.jpg)
Now its time to make the shock holders, one to the frame and one to the swing arm, the Ducati monster SR4 has the same swingarm but it has the shock mounted in the center, I want it like the MH900e, in one side, more retro look, combined with ultra modern body shapes....cool.:

http://img367.imageshack.us/img367/7853/mm004cw0.jpg (http://img367.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mm004cw0.jpg)
I mounted the shock holders, it was hard to aligne too, It is necesary to avoid the tire touches it, and I had to cut a little the shock to make it fit, need to sand and primer again:
http://img352.imageshack.us/img352/3244/mm008jb2.jpg (http://img352.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mm008jb2.jpg)
http://img352.imageshack.us/img352/2504/mm010hw6.jpg (http://img352.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mm010hw6.jpg)
I began the paint scheme, it still needs a lot of detailing:
http://img352.imageshack.us/img352/4022/mm002zx8.jpg (http://img352.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mm002zx8.jpg)
Ducati red and antique gold applied:
http://img352.imageshack.us/img352/84/mm015kv8.jpg (http://img352.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mm015kv8.jpg)
A preview of the fairing, Im working in the winshield, maybe Ill smoke it a little:
http://img352.imageshack.us/img352/3124/mm012ou7.jpg (http://img352.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mm012ou7.jpg)
Still working on the frame:
http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/1387/ty002bj6.jpg (http://img140.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ty002bj6.jpg)

http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/3279/ty005kn7.jpg (http://img254.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ty005kn7.jpg)
The frame still needs details, paint the center bridge, screws, etc.

e y ya
I had an idea for the exhaust, I found this piece in a paper store, its perfect for what Im looking for:
http://img300.imageshack.us/img300/2825/mm006ea8.jpg (http://img300.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mm006ea8.jpg)http://img300.imageshack.us/images/thpix.gif (http://g.imageshack.us/thpix.php)
I made the cutting and shaping:
http://img216.imageshack.us/img216/3705/gh006uf2.jpg (http://img216.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gh006uf2.jpg)http://img216.imageshack.us/images/thpix.gif (http://g.imageshack.us/thpix.php)
I took the suppurt from the original exhaust exit:
http://img157.imageshack.us/img157/5329/gh031ig6.jpg (http://img157.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gh031ig6.jpg)http://img157.imageshack.us/images/thpix.gif (http://g.imageshack.us/thpix.php)

It fits like the oriinal, I didnt want to modify very much yhe tail frame, in order to make everything fit better, any way those parts are hidden when the taik cowl is on:
http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/4695/gg001jl6.jpg (http://img90.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gg001jl6.jpg)http://img90.imageshack.us/images/thpix.gif (http://g.imageshack.us/thpix.php)

I added a grille in each exhaust exit, and I made a heat proterctor with a aluminum sheet:
http://img519.imageshack.us/img519/2979/fff001jr7.jpg (http://img519.imageshack.us/my.php?image=fff001jr7.jpg)http://img519.imageshack.us/images/thpix.gif (http://g.imageshack.us/thpix.php)

I re-shaped the windshield like the one in the ducati sketches:
http://img157.imageshack.us/img157/9124/fff012vw1.jpg (http://img157.imageshack.us/my.php?image=fff012vw1.jpg)http://img157.imageshack.us/images/thpix.gif (http://g.imageshack.us/thpix.php)

I made a peg protectors and exhaust tube cover with aluminum:
http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/8840/fff014eo5.jpg (http://img89.imageshack.us/my.php?image=fff014eo5.jpg)http://img89.imageshack.us/images/thpix.gif (http://g.imageshack.us/thpix.php)
All mechanical parts are ready:
http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/6483/nn008ex4.jpg (http://img89.imageshack.us/my.php?image=nn008ex4.jpg)http://img89.imageshack.us/images/thpix.gif (http://g.imageshack.us/thpix.php)
Im still working in stetics, I made the letters with adhesive vinyl in metallic grey:
http://img523.imageshack.us/img523/5600/nn001vt6.jpg (http://img523.imageshack.us/my.php?image=nn001vt6.jpg)http://img523.imageshack.us/images/thpix.gif (http://g.imageshack.us/thpix.php)
Weather here is very cold so I had to use a lamp to help the clear coat dry:
http://img523.imageshack.us/img523/7953/nn002hm2.jpg (http://img523.imageshack.us/my.php?image=nn002hm2.jpg)http://img523.imageshack.us/images/thpix.gif (http://g.imageshack.us/thpix.php)
When I got the out the oven they look really shiny!

And now begains the most fum part, the assembly back, of course there is still detail work to do, like cables, hoses, grilles, etc.
Engine ready:
http://img523.imageshack.us/img523/1950/nn010cg1.jpg (http://img523.imageshack.us/my.php?image=nn010cg1.jpg)http://img523.imageshack.us/images/thpix.gif (http://g.imageshack.us/thpix.php)

Fairings: I have to paint black the interior an add grilles, and I still dont know if use a headlight or just add a grille like air intake, this is supose to be a show bike or a open track day bike, like the NCR NEW BLUE.

I have to work on the seat, fuel tank cushioned parts, grilles and all cables.
Here is the NCR NEW BLUE, oooooh I love this bike, Is based too in the Paul Smart Imola bike, I hope Tamiya or New-ray some day releases the Sport Classic Ducati bikes to make a replica of this bike, if not Im surely will scartch build it.

Looks well thought out. I found the Imola concept 916 looking bike and I is a good idea to have the 999 bike. Keep up the good work.

Do you have any pictures of the 916 you are talking about?
I have a New Ray Ducati 998R and I would make a replica of it.

The pictures I saw I found by accident and it has been a while so, maybe I was mistaken. I looked again today and could not find what I thought I saw.

Twowheelsrule, maybe you saw the Troy Bayliss's Ducati he rode in Imola, It was painted silver for the anniversary, and called Imola.
This is the Minnichamps 1:12 model:

This is the actual bike:

I also found this interesting concept in the web:

That 916 is pretty wicked! The Bayliss bike would be pretty easy to make as a street version except the back wheel that used to be available in a studio 27 transkit.

I added grilles in the front fender an fairing, aluminum grille was very haerd to cut, so I had to cut a little big pieces:

I weatered a little the seat, to simulate the touching of the leathers, knees in tank, butt in seat and elbows in tank sides:

I like your ideas that you used on your bike! I really like the stand you made even though it is fairly simple it really looks a lot better that just sitting the bike on the table.

Thanks Sportracer and thanks Mark, yes I wanted to do something simple, but with organic forms, Im working on a better stand, one I saw in a photo of the Bicicle show in las vegas, in the Bianchi booth, the Ducati version.
Ill look for the photo to show you.
