New model...Factory Porsche 956 Group C
Porsche 956...the 1982 Le Mans winner with Jacky Ickx and Derek Bell driving.
This is a 1:43 die-cast from HPI. Impressive detail. http://photos.imageevent.com/puma_ca...ckxBell956.jpg Rear cowl removed showing engine and suspension detail. http://photos.imageevent.com/puma_ca...Engine-Bay.jpg Funny to think this model is only 4" long... |
That is some impressive detail for a model of that scale! And of course the photography is top notch as well.
Regards, Jim |

So Stephen...is your model collection growing? :D

Yep, Michael, I now have four 1:18 scale cars (3 race, 1 street), and four 1:43rd scale cars, including the three Porsche 956s that just arrived yesterday in the HPI boxed set and the resin-cast Audi R18 etron quattro that won Le Mans in 2011.
http://photos.imageevent.com/puma_ca...-R18-2-Web.jpg Also have 6 Gemini Aces Warbirds 1:72 die-cast models, most of which are Spitfire variants! ;-) The Gemini Aces 1:72 scale series from Gemini Jets are amongst the most impressive die-cast model airplanes I have ever seen: http://photos.imageevent.com/puma_ca...tfeuerex-1.jpg |
Now WWII propeller driven aircraft are my weak spot. I do have quite a few 1:18 scale diecast cars but I do have a few aircraft as well.
Great collection, Stephen! |

Are you familiar with the Gemini Aces series? Wait 'til you see the model I bought today! Gorgeous! Doing some lighting/staging concepts right now. |
First concept, need to do a bit of refining on the shot, lighting set-up, etc. But pretty happy with this as a first pass...
The Jaguar E-type Series 1 convertible. http://photos.imageevent.com/puma_ca...-XK-E-num1.jpg |
Yes, I've seen some of the Gemini Ace series models. Impressive units, Stephen!
|
Very nice photo of the E-Type!
