Matt Bacon Posted March 14, 2015 Author Share Posted March 14, 2015 Thanks very much, guys... @MikeG -- the SA Aperta is my take on Ferrari Rosso Fuoco, made by using Tamiya rattle cans: TS-39 Mica Red over TS-84 Metallic Gold. I came up with the idea after building an Iron Man armour, and thinking that the red over gold looked very like the "electric red" of the Ferrari. There's no visible flake at all, which matches the original rather well... @Randy D -- softboxed powerful sidelights and a white background (plus a tripod) is the key. I'll take a photo of the set-up next time I construct it! bestest, M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was about 13 a kindly sportscar saleman let me sit in a brand-new Miura SV after I told him I had the matchbox car. I asked him how much it cost and he said $28,500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beeRS Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Great looking models and photography there Matt. What kit is the 250 SWB from? Thanks for sharing you photography set up. You don't say what your camera spec/lenses are? Just curious, as I have recently bought a new camera and I'm looking for the right type of lens for this kind of work.
