@ benb, a nice find. mod her to look like your own car. i presume its a FUNTOYZ??

No. Not Yet. As A few Members here know, I have started to concentrate on a themed collection. Hence, Its only Mercedes And BMW from now onwards, with the occasional other brand.

This is my Next. It is an SLK 55 AMG

there is a beautiful HONDA Type R from Auto Art sitting in Model Art Forum Bangalore - priced at Rs 995/-
Lovely detailing as usual.
check that out.

Tell me about it! And the guy driving it?! In pink!

Guys,

I have a year old 1:24 model of Audi R 8 in white with me, boored I want to modify by doing two tone color, led lights. I have 2 colors in stock Red and Black. My question

1. Which will be better black or red.

2. Which areas to paint and which one to left in original color.

As for led lighting it will be a easy job if the space permits. I am attaching sample photos for all to give suggestions

Well, Unless Ferrari and Shell have brought out a new range, Which they havent, and unless these are Diecast, which they are not, These are NOT Hotwheels.

Yup Shankar, those are of Matchbox make. Its a 1961 Jaguar E-Type Coupe made by Matchbox. Try out Big Bazaar, heard they have stocked up loads of Matchbox Scaled Models in their Toys Section.

@sinner & @Cyrus43, Thanks for the inputs on lighting. Shall try out using white sheet the next time. Would love to experiment some more on the lighting techniques.
