It's an amazing bit of work, there's no doubt about that, but it's a fairly large scale & things/parts etc can be made to look very cool/better as the scale gets bigger... NOT to take anything away from this guy's eye for detail or his incredible "patina" skills :-) Fantastic all 'round & way cool.

So those are Porcher kits?? I don't think they are plastic. Some of it may be. I can't read the German (not sure about German). I know that you can get the rust on the metal using etching acid and other type acid.. Either way I'd like to see an English version of the text. I guess I'll search for it. I'm interested in his techniques. Anyone else?

Not Pocher kits, because they didn't make a single one of these cars. Scratchbuilt out of metal. And half of them have never been issued in any form, at any scale, by anyone.
