Must not have been sitting there long, there's no oil under it. Smile [:)]  That thing has really taken a beating hasn't it? Very nice work. Very nice. It looks so real. Thumbs Up [tup]

Hey - that's really quite impressive....glad you posted the second lot of pics, because the lighting in the first pic really threw out the color balance....
The weathering is pretty amazing - must have taken ages to do - I've built a couple of those Esci kits - they take a lot of work to get looking right - and you've done very well.

Very well done, mate.

Cheers, LeeTree

Hi Karel,

when I saw the photos of your models there is nothing to say for me, because I can´t find the right words of superlative. Congratulation for these masterpieces of work.

Please share a little bit more of your secrets with us. How do you do the oilgrain and how do you archive the structure of the saddle.

Karel.

Absolutely world class IMO. Your weathering is amongst the best I have ever seen.  I think when you can look at a subject, and not be sure if it is a model or the real thing, you are there!
