So I got fairly bored tonight and decided to photograph one of my 1:18 model cars; a Skyline GTR R34. I turned all the lights off and used only a lamp to provide light; I think the pictures turned out alright, some were a bit underexposed but thats easily fixed

Oh and excuse the dust on the car, I never bothered to clean it before I took the pics

First pic is wicked!

I trawled through my parents store room this afternoon bits & peices for a new prop (facey friends will know what it is), so looking forward to getting all good to go for a friday night shoot

Nice GTR Nick! I though it was real before I read your comment, haha!

Die-cast is still one of my hobby too, love those AutoArt models but can't really afford them! Haha

Also got myself an STI about a year ago from Autoart

2 Pics have been updated to better ones! Again, excuse the dust

I've built a few model cars in my time too, but I wouldn't dare take any photos of them, let alone post them here because none of them turned out any good

Visisted Jared out at his place today, and on the way back home took these 2 photos:





And this afternoon went and picked wifey from her friends place and had some fun with her 2.5yo boy - kids are extremely hard to photograph!
