Ok we join this build where basically it is just waiting for the body panels to go on, I love the colours that Tamiya called out for this and you may notice with this being around my 6th bike build now I am getting much better at the detailing and finishi

although I think Ducatti's are gorgeous bikes, this is one ugly duckling without the front cowling on

Halted at this stage as ran out of italian red but I think with the cowling on, this makes a gorgeous naked bike

Album info

Almost completed this one as I had ran out of paint and had some panel fitting issues with the fairings.
Another lovely kit from Tamiya and have really enjoyed the build on this.

This will be around my 5th bike build since I started back into modelling and is all hand painted using Tamiya acrylics and TS8 Italian red.

RRP on this kit is around £25.00

Again I only started taking pictures around half way through the build - sorry about that
