in models i thought i'd post this link, i know some of you guys are and know i am, these have got to be the best made, detailed models and buildings i've ever seen, i really thought some of the pics were of real scenes, man if i had this guys talent,
the way he positions the subjects and use of natural lighting, camera angles and film choice really add realism to the models, the snow scene is particualaly good, check the nighttime camper one too, really good work,
makes me want to kick the f##k put of the stuff i made

Nice find Ian

Makes me think it's time to pick up the tools again and start on the collection I have waiting in the cupboards

Wow I started to look and thought where are the models, then I realised

Wow, that's impressive.

A friend of mine makes models for shows and he made a lorry (Eddie Stobart type thing) and just the cab took him 100 hours!

It was a custom job for a guy in Japan, his work is amazing too, I'll try and get some pictures if I can but I've not spoken to him in a while so it might be tricky.


Cheers,

Ray.

Yours are just as good ian, you just need a better camera/man!


My favorite is the photo looking down onto the white T/bird convertible.
