Pocher Ferrari F40 plus Autograph Transkit

Your talent is absolutely mind-boggling. I recently sold a sealed Pocher F40 engine and transkit in the FChat collectibles section. My ego got the better of me in the original purchase and I subsequently realized that I have neither the time nor the talent to build the model as it is meant to be built.

 

wow - well done.

more pics?

 

Amazing Tony, hurry up with those pics!

 

I hope you enjoyed every single moment constructing this masterpiece. You are surely a master model builder. Sometimes words just cannot say enough when something is this incredible. I am speachless. My jaw actually dropped when I saw your pics. Please add more pics...hundreds more.

 

That is brilliant. I wish I had the patience to even pull something like this off, let alone the time...

 

thanks for the additional pics - truly astounding workmanship - congratulations.

 

That is absolutely outstanding Tony, it's one of the best models I have ever seen

 

Thanks for the added pics. I just can't get enough of your masterpiece. Your work is like that of a fine artist. Your pics are excellent too! The clarity is exceptional.

 

I never quite realised how big they are, it's huge!

 

Fantastic job Ton, beautiful model. My only complaint with the Autograph transkit is the non-functional suspension, it makes that heavy model sit a little too high in my opinion. I've always used functional springs when using the Autograph transkit and it makes a world of difference. Your F40 certainly looks amazing nonetheless.

 

WOW!!

This build is staggering!
Amazing detail.
I can only hope to have the time/skill/patience/money to build one of these in the future.
I can't afford 600 for the initial kit, much less the extra 1800 for the transkit.
Simply astounding!

 

Amazing!

 

congrats. true craftsmanship.

 

+1

"Stunning", "awesome", "breathtaking" also come to mind - Pretty much impossible to tell from the real thing in those shots as well - Great photo job.

Now the (very minor!) comments & "criticisms".....

- I like the "a" shots (where you took most of the color out) - Sweet.
- 332 - Although honey shrunk the key, it still looks a little big in this pic? - Maybe the angle?
- 350 - The tires in the air! (Sorry!)
- You obviously decided against the "Ken & Barby" luggage - Maybe set it alongside the car?

Again, thanks for sharing and congratulations!

Cheers,
Ian
EDIT: Now I *really* need to clean off the bench as previously "promised"

 

The model made Jalopnik.

they are definitely impressed.

 

Very cool!

[Now we know why Ton put copyright notices on the pix ]

 

Well that's just friggin' rude!.... Obviously, you don't want 'em to take the pix down, but I would have thought at least an acknowledgement (and appropriate links) would be nice. Have you contacted them? I'd be interested in any communications as this is a huge issue with the web - On one hand, they're "promoting" your work, which is nice, but on the other they're using *your* pix, appropriately copyrighted, and they ignore said copyright.....

As a sometime published photographer the whole thing is just a mess - I dunno how to fix it though.....[Or even if it's possible to fix!]

Cheers,
Ian
