Kawasaki Ninja H2R
Tamiya 1:12

The Kawasaki Ninja H2R—the kind of bike that demands attention. It’s the epitome of a superbike, so naturally, I had to build a model of it. My first attempt at a bike model, third model overall, and all in 1:12 scale. I threw myself in headfirst, using an airbrush for the first time, with paints from SMS, Tamiya, and Motolow.

There were no shortcuts here—no aftermarket add-ons or photo-etch, just pure focus on the build itself. It turned out better than expected, and for a first bike model, it’s pretty impressive. I’ve had my fair share of builds, but this one stands out. It's not perfect, but for a rookie attempt, it's about as close as you can get without riding it yourself.
