Cool!

It's almost as if I know how special this dio will be. 😉

Alexander Grivonev
it absolutely does look like THE street, the realism is stunning 👍

Alexander Grivonev
what do you mean "my 1:24 cars", since when 😄

bughunter Auteur
Thank you mates! I am also absolutely satisfied with the result.

@Alexander From time to time I have done some 1:24 cars, typically from ICM.
The Benz Motorwagen is the best I think, also received an award. The newest was the Ford A released this year.
You can find them on my Projects filtered fro 1:24: bughunter

Erik Off
Perfect! 👍 Where did you get the typical German manhole covers?

bughunter Auteur
Thanks Erik!
Both are from ebay, see the selection box: https://ebay.de/itm/163637309021
Not the perfect quality, but usable.

Erik Off
Thank you!

bughunter Auteur
Especially for Alex I made a picture with the Ford A. A 1:24 car fits well.

Uhhhhh - that is beautiful … both, the model and the road 👌

bughunter Auteur
Thank you very much Thomas!
The Ford is not new. I showed it here in June: Ford Model A Standard Phaeton Soft Top (1930s) | Project by bughunter (1:24)

Patrick Hagelstein
That road segment looks absolutely stunning! Very well done and very realistic looking.

Alexander Grivonev
Thanks a lot! Again, it looks absoilutely stunning 👍

Neuling
Excellent model and base.

Michael Kohl
Very fine street segment. Thanks for the link to the german manhole covers. They caught my attention too. Now it needs a more modern german car. I doubt that the Benz vehicle will do. And a figure of course. 🙂

Jakub Fiala
Great!

Villiers de Vos
Flawless.

Thank you very much for your kind words mates!

This is SO good. Two years ago i made something very similar but not even half as beautyful as yours. Using a deformed ferrule as a stamp for the cobblestone texture is ingenious - i whish i had known this trick when i made mine.

bughunter Auteur
Thank you Mel!
I have to admit that I got the idea of turning an old paintbrush into a stamp from someone else on the internet.

The pretty car and the texture of the floor is really nice.

bughunter Auteur
Thank you very much! Much appreciated.

Spanjaard
very nice street. pity that the ebay seller does not sell outside of Germany apparently.... well, i may visit some friends in Germany next year, so i may get some items 😄

bughunter Auteur
If you come to the EME in Lingen next year we can organize something.

Spanjaard
thanks, i would love to, but it is quite possible i will not be able to be there, unfortunatelly

Juergen Klinglhuber
Super - turning the foam piece into that reallistic road scene is just amazing - good job!

bughunter Auteur
Danke Juergen!

bughunter Auteur
Now I can show the intended vehicle, see also the other albums of this secret project.

gorby
I assume your friend was very pleased with it?

bughunter Auteur
Yes gorby, I had the impression and it was a big surprise. I think because it's a very personal gift.

Bozo
Inspiring. I have a street in 1/72. hard to get such a good result.

The way you made a rather useful but boring display case into a small diorama is amazing. And the creativity you show in scratch building too. Thanks for pointing me to this album

bughunter Auteur
You are welcome! Thx!
Oh yes, scratch building is for me the biggest fun part of the hobby 😎 I really like to work with wood and metal on my biplanes.
