fredben Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Fantastic detail. Looks so realistic, you would not know that they are 1/20 scale. I have to ask.....They are 1/20th scale John and not the real deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gobs of Espresso Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 I was going to ask if these were the images you were planning to recreate in 1/20th scale and as I read the comments, they are 1/20th scale already. Wow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeroenS Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 That's quite the museum you have there John! Very cool stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theplasticsurgeon Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 (edited) Epic stuff there - from the first year I was able to go to the British GP. Some from early 70s, as well as 1970, but they're all cracking models. Lotus 72 - one of my favourite cars ever. Two Rob Walker Lotus for Graham Hill. that Matra, wasn't that what Jackie Stewart drove in 1970? Jackie Ickx Ferrari. McLaren, just after they lost Bruce - one with wings, one without. Lotus Turbine, I think that was a year or so later - never drivable enough to be truly competitive. Is that yellow one a March 701? Martini Brabham, can' t out a year in that. Thanks for taking me back - they're all, I'm lost for superlatives. Edited. Just spotted the Yardley BRM - had my photo taken in a P160 back in the day. And Emerson's Copersucar, Hand Stuck's March, and is Campari a Penske? - can we see close-ups of those as well????????I And is that James Hunt' s McLaren lurking just off-shot. We NEED more photos.

Rabbit Leader Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 That is bloody brilliant John and I apologies for the expletive. I am just bowled over by their amazing lifelike and realistic qualities. 1970 is the year that I was born and I am seriously contemplating building one of these Ebro Lotus 72's as part of my "In the year I was born" GB. I've never built a car before, so cannot expect to achieve anything like that sort of quality, however all these cars on this grid are just beautifully presented. Thanks for the additional inspiration. Cheers.. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kilo Echo Victor Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Fabulous work all round John, the cars themselves are beautiful works of art and equally so the grid/display base - the whole scene all looks totally real, very well done indeed!

kapam Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 That looks like a lifetime's work in all those models! They are superbly built and finished. I too thought we were looking at reference photos of the real thing at first - they're that realistic! I hate to sound old, but I honestly believe the cars of that era were much more beautiful than todays multi-appended monstrosities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScalemodelMadnessDan Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 These are so realistic, I thought the same thing thinking I was looking a photos of the real ones 😲 Such a fantastic job on all of them 👍 and my visit to your website was a treat 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redstaff Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Some fantastic builds there, I thought they were the real ones as well 😀 I must admit that cars from this era really appeal to me as well, they had character Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
