    My new build is the 1/12 Tamiya Ducati 1199 Panigale.
    So in my fashion - I truly love this bike but don't really want mine to look like everyone else's. So I'm thinking of going a different route with this - sorry Not Red or Yellow @Rory.

    Hope you enjoy the build

    Step one - lets get everything ready for primer and drill out some brake disks and give them some wear and tear.

    Great start, @anthonyricco, this is a lovely kit, but both of mine are red, one road bike and one Superbike racer. I wonder what colour yours is going to be?

    Thanks George @chinesegeorge - stick around and see. - Maybe this will give you a hint, printing out a test to have masks made to go onto the body panels.

    A little teaser.

    That is very very true @johnb - will be difficult to make this bike NOT look good.

    I can see why you like this part of the build. Nice work on the forks and seat shock, Anthony. Do you have a 3D printer?
