Pagoda Model
« on: June 09, 2016, 15:15:55 »
I wasn't sure where to put this, and it may be here somewhere already.  This was posted on another forum and I thought I'd share it here.

Damn this forum,   I just spend the last 30 minutes looking at everything on this site and missed a meeting I set up.  Now I have to reschedule next week. 

Those are absolutely amazing.  It makes me want to go home an play in my garage.    Maybe I will call in sick tomorrow so I can revist the site alone and in the privacy of my home.

Smiling at Ian, I'm so glad I don't have this problem ~grin~

PS. As far as the model is concerned ... Great pictures, I just cannot comprehend how a model gets to that stage. All my models are in a glass protected shelf (former dining room teak sideboard acting now as a reference desk in my office) soon to be moved into my Mancave extension (shelf in my garage once my garage makeover is completed).

Amazing models, hand-built from the ground up. The rear doesn't look right, but all in all a great effort. Most of us would rather put such effort into making our cars better, but it's amazing to see this guy does this to make them into realistic barn finds. Wow!
