Lol.....that's what I like about doing them......it's either before restoration, or their final few years before the scrap man reclaims them !......so do I dare do a 350Z in a few years time :)......don't think I could bring myself to do it lol

Very cool JEMAN. B)

 

Done loads of models myself and a few diorama's over the years. The scale of all the bits & pieces look's spot on too which is very cool.

 

I've actually just finished building a 1989 F1 Ferrari, ...won't ruin your thread with the pics though. I'll start my own thread & link to it if you're interested in seeing it. :thumbs:

All you need to do is get a model wrap it in an old blue tarp it would look just like it :lol:

Why..!!! :surrender: :surrender:

They are diorama's Will, ...really clever if you ask me and quite difficult to do.

 

I did a few when I was younger of battle scenes like a WW2 British trench and German machine gun out post.

Quite a few people do the car ones as well ~ some do ones of crashed cars which are clever like below. ;)

WOW! What's the process? Did all the models begin like as a new piece/off the shelf kit and you carry out the ageing and rusting etc?

 

I think I've got an example of your handy work on the nearside rear arch of my Zed....
