Pocher 1/4 ducati panigale

[kpnuts]

Well we've been away for the weekend at our friends caravan and I came back to a bit of a disaster

All the plastic parts are fine I couldn't work out what had gone wrong but now I have

No primer, I assume the plastic parts were primed hence they are ok.
I've removed the paint

(Another chance to see how big this is its nearly as long as my thigh)
Now I just have to 're prime it, I'm just wondering if I have enough of the blue left this thing is so big it took nearly a whole can to paint it(admittedly I did both sides of all the parts as I was not sure if the back of any parts could be seen) hopefully no more problems will occur.

Hi all repaired the tank. I have to say I really, really, really love this colour


Made the water pump too.



Did I mention how much I really, really, really love this colour.

Wow looking very realistic. Almost 1:1

Hi all started adding detail to the starter relay.

You're doing some fine work here.

Agreed Bruce. KP always posts some impressive work here.

Hi all well I've detailed up the battery and added the upgrade kit decal (the smaller decal is the one that came with the kit.

I must say I am surprised with a kit of this size and price of the huge amount of missing detail, mostly seems to be wiring which surely wouldn't be that expensive to add to the kit.

Hi all started on the fuel system added the butterfly valves made from aluminium foil onto which I put brass leaf.


Then I cut it to fit

Then cut a piece of sprue then halved it.

Covered it with the brass leaf then drilled two holes and added a couple of screws

[dogfish7]

Amazing!

[kpnuts]

Thanks mate bit more added here (this is just the supplied detail loads of wiring and connectors still to add) ( I really don't know why they don't supply varying thicknesses of wire surly it wouldn't add more than a tenner to the cost of the kit)


As I said loads more detail to add but couldn't resist trying it on the engine.



Also got the tyres on the wheels (Man they are heavy, but great quality)

[kpnuts]

Hi all well here's the wiring added to the intake system and said system added to the engine (this thing is getting heavey)

[kpnuts]

Hi all I've detailed up the airbox.


My first attempt at the paper filter

My fourth

[fordrodnkustom]

Wow fantastic detail everywhere but those butterfly valves,,,just amazing. They seem to tie it all together.

[kpnuts]

Hi all well I couldn't resist putting together what I have so far.




This thing is huge. This is a 1/6 bike with a similar size engine.


And it's heavy.

Looks almost ready to start up!
