Sandro - you do such clean work on your motoGP bikes. Please continue with the WIP's and the pictures. Also I think the "white" tire stripe "soft" compound needs to be toned down a little bit - it is too bright of a white. Just a suggestion - John

[SandroSilva]

Thanks John, I used this photo as a reference to the track in the tire, and she seemed quite white.



A few more photos of the progress of the assembly.

Sandro - looks very good - love the helmet detail and finish - regarding the white stripe "soft" tire markings - I meant the "white" color should be flat in color and the pictures made the white look glossy. Maybe it was just the pictures with the flash that gave the appearance. Your attention to detail is fantastic and your MotoGP bikes are some of the best seen here on the Forum. Thank you for sharing your WIP and all the pictures you have included - John

The model is almost ready, just need to direct the fairing, which is in the polishing ase. So an idea of ​​how the model will be exposed.

Wow Sandro - excellent detail - which company chain did you use? Also what did you make the "soft" tire stripes with? Was it white decal paper? Which company was the Helmet decals? - John

[SandroSilva]

John, the drive chain was top studio, since the adhesive wheel was Hasegawa, and helmet decals are Tamiya.

This was the material used to make the track.



More photos of the finished model.







I bought an acrylic base to put the model, which was very good. I attended an event this weekend here in Sao Paulo - Brazil, which was awarded as the best model of Yamaha motorcycle.

Sandro - did you have any special technique for building the Top Studio chain? I have been having nightmares trying ton build one. Also you have finished another masterpiece - you and Andrea have raised the standard for motorcycles on the forum - Congratulations on your finish at the contest. - John

Sandro - what company screw "rivets" did you use on the body panels on the Yamaha and the Ducati? I think I asked you before, but I cannot find in the postings - John

Hello Sandro
I saw you have removed the tamiya screws from the side fairing. How did you connect the side fairing to the front cowl?
