I've always liked the looks of the Moggy Plus 4.

I wanted to own the real thing, once, but now I think the Tamiya kit is as close as I'll come.

Thanks for sharing the great detail pics!

Wow! Really nice Morgan and even nicer photos. Would you mind sharing what camera equipment you use and what you do to get such clear, crisp photos? You get outstanding results.

Thanks for the kind words. For these photos in 2008 I used an Olympus DSLR - Olympus E500 and the kit lens that came with it,  Zukko 14-45 lens.

I shot the car in the RAW camera format and used Adobe Lightroom to process the RAW file into a TIFF which I brought into Photoshop to crop the photo and add my K3NMO signature.

In 2010 I upgraded to an Olympus E620 which is a 12 megapixel camera, the E500 is 8.

Around 2014 I switched to Nikon cameras. I purchased a Nikon D3300 which is 24 megapixel. Since then I purchased a few more Nikons - D7000 (I have two of these), D71000 and D5200.

I switched to Nikon because of larger selection of lenses. My Nikon D7100 and D7000 can use some older 35mm film lenses and use Nikons auto focus option. I picked up an older 28-80 Nikon film lenses for a few bucks ((I believe it was $30) which works perfectly on the D7100 and D7000. But does not work on the D3300 or D5200.

I think the key is to shot in RAW and not allow the camera to compress to JPEG. Better to do so in Lightroom or Photoshop.
