vontrips Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Looks like a nice kit...frame tubes look nice and slim! What paint did you use for the engine - looks very convincing! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookiezoom Posted December 28, 2016 Author Share Posted December 28, 2016 Hi Vontrips, I used MRP for the engine. Super silver metallic MRP 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tank152 Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Off to a great start, nice work with the painting, I love the colour of that frame. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookiezoom Posted December 28, 2016 Author Share Posted December 28, 2016 Hiya Tank152, thank you. Yeah I love the colour. It's a really thin paint, so is taking a while to build the colour up to a decent standard. Loving MRP, thanks for the recommendation. I think it's about time I saw some of your work posted on this site, not seen some in a long time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximum warp Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 The green looks awesome, you're off to a good start! I'd love to get me this kit too but I vowed to myself to reduce my stash, I have bought more kits then I build for the past two years... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark_1984 Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Looks very good. Are you going to replace the horrible cross head screws Tamiya insist on providing, or replace them with something more scale-like. Apologies if you don't mind the screws - but they are my pet hate..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi there, hadnt really thought that far ahead really Mark, but I remember the Ducati Panigale S had this in the kit and the were quite fiddly ? I would know where to look to be honest though, if I were thinking of changing them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark_1984 Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 I changed them on my Honda RC166, which is somewhere in the ready for inspection section. Mainly, it was a case of putting bits of brass rod, superglued to hold the part, and then adding a slice of hex plastic to represent a bolt head. Not perfect, but (IMHO) it looked better. Still, each to their own. It's your model after all. It's looking fantastic already. I love the frame colour, and am sorely tempted to have a bash at this one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tank152 Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 Great to see a bit more progress, you'll soon get back into the swing of things. Life has a horrible habit of getting in the road, it's just part of the modelling experience! 😤 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
