Revell 1/9 Ducati 996 Carl Forgarty

Revell 1/9 Ducati 996 Carl Fogarty '99 winner. This is a reboxed Protar kit and one of the simplified versions (the engine, suspension & swingarm are all one piece for example). It went together nicely enough, but the decals were awful. Really stiff and didn't want to conform. Setting solution didn't really touch them, so a lot of heat was used. The number 1 decal on the fairing took over and hour to apply, and it's still not perfect.

The model is also basically a repurposed version of the road-going bike, the fairing is wrong and there are vents where there shouldn't be, but it's a close enough representation for me.
