Finished Photos: Suzuki RGV-T Movistar

This one is built from the 1/12 Tamiya kit of the 2001 RGV-T as ridden by Kenny Roberts in his year as reigning World Champion.
Hope you guys like, feel free to comment.







And here is a not-so-good photo of my 1/24 and 1/12 Suzuki RGV-T's together, both 'representing' the same bike.

After reading an article on this kit in Tamiya Magazine I've tempted to start building bikes again. They are loads of fun to do.
Nice work Ray
Those decals look a bitch, did you have any problems with them being too small?

That is absolutely beautiful Ray.

I'd love to try one of those bikes one day. A Doohan Repsol Honda of course.

i have built this model b4 and found the decals to be easy to use as long as you take your time, i would advise the use of a decal softener if you have it. i didnt have it at the time but they all went on ok.

Nice work, but I have to say the titanium burns on the exhaust dont look quite right they're not dark enough and they're spread around too much on the exhaust, a hint of orange would help too.

Great model though.
