Tamiya Ducati 900 MH Replica

Hi all!

I am new here, and this is my first bike kit, not excpected professional work.

The kit is a Tamiya Ducati 900 M.H. Replica 1/12 scale.







First the wheels. Rims painted Tamy gold, the valves replaced to needle. The original brake discs was not so beauty. PE brakes aviable in the net, but the prize is…i sell my car, or i trying made brakes myself. Aluminium plate, 0.5 drill, sandpaper, 300+ holes, 3 days. Never again.



The engine is relative simple, only replace the valve-control rods, i made new from nail. I am a selftormented type, i find a very old and rusty nail, so lot of polishing again.
Painted with matt alu, drybrushing with alu and chrome silver.


Next phase is a frame rebuilding. I hope i can made that over the weekend.
