Ducati 1199 Panigale

[iceracer1]

Yet another Panigale on the forum. Seems to be a lovely kit so I wanted to build it immidiatelly.




It's going to be red, but don't know which red. I'm thinking of Rosso Red from Ferrari but maybe I go for Rosso Red from Ducati. Don't know if theres a real difference between them....



And a few reference pictures. Maybe somebody has more detailed pics?

What kind of photos do you need?

[m@ster k@frer]

I wish you have a problem free build. Can't wait to build this one

[iceracer1]

Wow it's a year ago since....

But I'm back and can't wait to start this project (again....)

I bought the front fork set by Tamiya to make it a bit more realistic.

The Panigale bike is really beautiful. Will definately have to build this one some day!

[iceracer1]

Just painted and clearcoated the fairings and wheels.










Now I can start working on the engine and frame.

Nice shine on those cowls Kris! The golden rims of the ducatis have always caught my eye. Will be nice to follow your progress!

Nice work!!!
The red is superb.
I'm a Ducati fan and I'm going to watch your work to the end!!

I started on the engine. I used Alclad Matt Aluminium for the engine and Ducati Frame Bronze for the bronze parts.




Then I started on the exhaust. I painted it gloss black as base for Alclad Chrome. After the chrome I masked of the weldingseams. Now I painted the exhaust Alclad Polished Steel and Gun Metal on the weld areas. I also made hinges for the Top Studio mufflersprings. I love the result!








I also painted the mufflers. I used Aclad Polished Steel and Polished Aluminium. I also added a Termigoni decal.









Every parts is already painted. So basicly it's now like Lego and put this Ducati together

Wohaaa, looks great Kris! Can't wait to see it dressed up!

Great job on the exhausts!

[iceracer1]

I made the rearswingarm and mounted it on the engine together with the monocoque frame part.






I drilled out the discs and put the Detail Up frontfork together. The wheels are also installed and added to the frame.

[iceracer1]

And another update. Every part already painted so it was easy to put it together.














Meanwhile it's completed, so next time I'll show the final pics!

Great pics! Overall really nice built, engine details would be more accenturated with a very light wash but that seems like nit picking....
