More dismantling.
I think I'm leaning to stripped street racer.
I've put the radiator on the 1/12 porsche dio to give an idea of size (the porsche is not small)
More rebuilding of the engine (I really think I'm getting the hang of making plastic look like metal) I already like the look of the whole thing over the look of the original engine, I thought I had slightly over weathered the first build so I'm cutting back a bit on that
Hi all started the first bit of surgery on the Ducati (no going back now)
I just hope the new paint job works.
I put a 1/9 bike in front of this behemoth to show how big it is.
I'm aiming for a subtle shade paint job, a sort of echo back to my favourite bike I ever owned (not a Ducati who could afford one) but my beloved honda 750 K4 (I know they didn't do it in the colour I'm depicting but I'm hoping the subtle added shade will work)
Hi all started the paint job, unfortunately it's a bit too subtle (I wanted a slight orange tint to the black paint job so went for alclad clear orange) 6 coats and you can only barely see it (not at all in the photos) so I will have to rethink and try another method.
