Winter Project 1199s Build

As the winter nights draw in I thought I’d have a go at the Tamiya 1/12 Panigale 1199S. Having a 899 in the garage helps as a reference!

Unfortunately the good people at hobby craft have ruined the image with white sticker

 

Yep, but looks like nobody has stock till Jan

 

Looks good, like the detail

 

That’s the engine block done. Detail from Tamiya looks excellent

 

Will do, just giving some thought on how to achieve the desired finish with the exhaust which is the next stage.

 

Tamiya PS-11 is the polycarbonate paint range for clear body shells?

 

After some delay in getting the right paints to match the actual bike as opposed to the instructions the exhaust is completed

 

Mainly airbrush but some of some of the smaller detail I’ve been using brush. This will be more obvious when I get the radiator on as I had to dry brush to achieve the desired result with that

 

Good luck with that! I thought the Tamiya was going to be difficult but that is in a different league......

 

That’s expecting a bit much for £38
