Pierre Rivard Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 Holy cow Martin, I thought the first pictures were real car reference material...awaiting the pictures of the 1/25 scale model to appear... and it never happened. What's the date...April 1? Seriously I have seen some beauties out there but never one that looks so lifelike. 👏 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocketFoot Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 I just can't stop looking at these photos! I had to look back through StokesModels activity and find other projects and I was not disappointed!! This MG in-particular shows even more of the diorama detail! Just look at the detail on the pump curb, the door dings on the yellow pump barriers and the ripped edge on the paper towel dispenser! Keep in mind, this is all 1/25 scale! What really sold the Mach 1 for me was the reflections of the house and trees in the paint! The bar has been set! Amazing work indeed! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happy grumpy Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 This has to be the most realistic model I've seen on here. A masterpiece of model building and photography. Like many others I thought the first photo was the reference car. This show quality stuff. Now I can't wait to start mine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unatural Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Just like everything else you build, this one is fantastic Martin. I've been following your work on IG for quite a while now (I'm KWSimages on there), and you are the reason I bought a Mars3. I've finally had a chance to start learning Fusion360, and have been able to replicate the '03 Cobra wheels and tires that are on my '91 Mustang, so I can actually build a scale version. I've learned a LOT just by looking through your posts and responses, and I very much look forward to learning more in the future. Next up for me is taking the time to replicate the twin turbo kit I built for my 1:1 car. 🙂 Keep up the good work! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Metallic Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 absolutely stunning presentation and execution as always. I particularly like the fact that you "downgraded" the trim level. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve H Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Hello Martin, your builds sir, are absolutely stunning. The realism you bring to scale modelling is nothing short of spectacular. The bar has been raised. It’s not just the incredible paint jobs, and clean detailing, but you have an unbelievable way of capturing “metal finishes” in scale. Can’t wait to see this in person next week. Hoping you might have the gas station dio available to view as well… Cheers, Steve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Street Rod Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 Absolutely stunning model and great photography! Like everyone else, I thought I was looking at a real car at first. You’ve put a lot of great details into the build and the paint looks near perfect. Your diorama is a great way to display your work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BKIN10SECS Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Stokemodels is very modest, this model is just the tip of his amazing model building abilities and creativity. If you really want to see more do youself a favor and check out his Instagram....just remember to strap yourself in when you do! Amazing as usual Stoke and I will tell you after luckily coming across your Instagram you have inspired me to venture into the world of 3d printing. My Elegoo 4 Max gets here at the end of the week. Wish me luck and thanks for giving me that little push I needed🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sledsel Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 WOW!!!! That is impressive to say the least. I thought the first pic was a real car! Ironically I am doing an AMT in the same fashion and color! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamelvis Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Hi Martin, You had me with that first photo of the Mustang. Like everyone else, I thought that was the photo of the 1:1 version you were going to build. But then I noticed the front BC plate, LOL. A car like that would have qualified for Collector Plates !! Not only is your work AMAZING, so is your photography. TCB, Adam 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
