Just got my parts panel from Tamiya Japan. All I can say is WOW! The detail on this thing is unreal - Basically the plastic kit version, hand painted and strategically placed inside a frame by an artist @ Tamiya. The attention to detail is amazing - Check out the tiny screws and the spacing...

I like having different pieces around my place, I think I've bought almost every antihero pice of art to date and absolutely love it. Just picked this one up the other day, I have two others from this guy(one of Senna and the other of Alonso). Figured I'd share with the group.

I was in Miami recently and was pleasantly surprised to see the huge Ducati booth presence at the monthly art walk extravaganza. A few pics from the evening:

Just thought I would share another amazing piece custom done by my close friend Sean Lezotte of Connecticut Cycle Refinishing (CCR) This fender done for another fellow member here who was extremely patient and understanding while his bodywork was up in CT being meticulously done. Custom...
