Ducati 916 - Tamiya 1/12

Cars bored me temporarily so I began doing my first motorbike.
Some time ago I bought Tamiya’s Ducati 916.
I like very much this bike. All Ducati are great.

So... lets go to work!















fairings after painting with gunze primer



I drilled holes in places where they were plastic nut and put on putty at irregularity of surface.

Re: Ducati 916 - Tamiya 1/12

What a great job Mark! I'm hooked to the end. If you need a specific detail shot let me know. I have access to a 1/1 version.

As a builder I consider three things for a great model kit:
1) Beautiful Subject
2) Loads of Accurate Details
3) Widely Available (aka cheap!)

The Tamiya 916 gets a 10 out of 10 on all three in my opinion. They really did it right on this kit. I could niggle over the use of giant screws but thats easy to change.

Which version? maybe Senna?

I look for pictures (from close) with rear shock absorber from Showa.
I have an Ohlins but I need standard Showa.
