Here's the completed bike of the Airfix 1:24 Honda RC211V that Rossi rode in 2002. I was given this to do after doing the Yamaha 09 bike. Unfortunately i had a problem some of the decals, they just broke up when soaked in water and was told the model had been in a shed of most of its life :(. Rider to follow at a later date.

Here's Tamiya's Yamaha YZR-M1 '09 1:12 MotoGP bike that Rossi rode back in 2009. It's the first bike i've done and to be honest, i'm pretty impressed with it considering people say that bikes are a lot harder than cars. Yes it was a little fiddly and very detailed but i enjoyed building it - must get more bikes done. I didn't use TS-51 for the blue as instructed, instead i used X-4 as i felt more confident spraying with that instead of the can. Looking back, i should have added X-31 to the blue which would have given the blue a bit of depth. Spraying the white (X-2) was a nightmare and quickly realised it needs thinning more than other colours. More of a 2:1 (thinner:paint) mix rather than the other way round which is what i use for spraying and painting tamiya paints.
