There are more, but the pics are too big, so once I have figured out how to re-size them, I will post them.

But I will leave you with some planes now............

You have some nice rare Lamborghinis in your collection Ruttboy, especially the Diablo SE30 Jota. I take it the 1:18s in boxes are on the stairs, are they bespoke items?

PS - I don't know if you remember but I used to know your sister when she worked at a certain place back home. Haven't seen her in a long time.

SAB888, thank you.
The models in the Ikea wooden frames are regular Autoart models and are mounted up the stairs, much to my wife's disgust.

And yes, some of the models are unique and were made for me by Lamborghini when I worked for them.

And my sister, what??
Small world, she's doing fine.
How did you know her?

Regards,

Ruttboy.

My Tamiya models, which all need a good clean, which live in cabinets at my parents house.

I want them at home - swmbo says not a chance.

Finished my 1/18 Colin McRae Escort Mk2.

Have decided to leave the silver minilites on as the vast majority of pics ive seen of this car have them on. Can always swap to the white revoltion's at a later date.

I used to see your sister in the place she used to work before she moved to one of the Banks I seem to remember. Don't know if she's still at the Bank as I haven't seen her in years. Nice to know she's doing okay.

I'm envious of some of the models you have in your collection! Very nice.

Perhaps put your hair curlers away before you set up the photographs? hehe

Perhaps the use of hair curlers is an advanced modelling technique we've not yet been told about.

Well I have heard of the use of eye shadow for shading and weathering effects.

Just splashed out on a few of the latest HWE releases. They're not shy on their pricing lately but they're the only show in town at present. I read somewhere their license is coming to an end so maybe they're just milking it one last time.





Also a 250 Breadvan. Not many manufacturer's seem to make models of these. I've bought a few of these TSM Fujimi models in various sales now and they look good value, certainly compare favourably with Hot Wheels and Minichamps.

I have many many 1\43 models but this is a favourite.

Bought off eBay, code 3 built by someone else.
