slownrusty Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Absolutely incredible detail.... http://www.martin-heukeshoven.de A twist on models...these are made using actual rusted metal and decayed wood...prices are $10,000US for the Renn Transporter below (its 3feet long)...the detail is mond blowing and representative of what you will discover in a barn or rotting somewhere...I cannot imagine the time to build one of these!

cygnusx1 Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Rust is now called "Patina" at the big auction places. They are making original unrestored, barn finds, into the "in" thing. These models go along with this trend. Very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forrest Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 The detail on those is amazing, but I don't get the appeal of seeing automobiles in a state of decay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wigenOut-S30 Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 The detail on those is amazing, but I don't get the appeal of seeing automobiles in a state of decay. I agree 100%.. and 10grand!!.. that is insane.. To me its like the dirty jeans you can find at target.. 40 bucks for jeans that are "pre filthy" hahahaha.. I just dont get it.. but to each his own.. the detail is amazing for sure though.. If I had 10 extra grand though.. hmm what could I do with 10 grand.... thinking......

tfreer85 Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 I like old cars like that, something you don't see or very limited production cars that tried to make it before the market was dominated by the mega car companies. Always been a dream of mine to have something unique or build something unique like one of those...then reality kicks in. Tyson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerrari GTO Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 All I can say is...supercool! Those are awesome depictions of barnyard finds; you can almost smell the musty interiors. The work to recreate the faded peeling paint, rusty components and rotting interiors is awesome! To create a diorama all he has to do is place one of his models on some dirt or asphalt; truly amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darrel Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 1:18 hybridz project. Looks like he ran out of money and was only able to get the air cleaner and valve covers. http://junkyardjewels.com/1970_datsun_240_z.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
