Model Collections

I was wondering if anyone has a model collection, possibly 1:18 or's 1:24, etc?

I've got a big collection, 105 1:18 models to be exact.

Here are pictures of my collection, although those pictures only covers about 50 of the,. I sadly can not take any new pictures as I do not own a camera at this moment, but should get one next month.

Re: Model Collections

I have some 1:18, mostly F1 cars and some UT models

They have been stored for some times now, so I don't remember what I have?!

I'll do an inventory and post a list one of these days.

Re: Model Collections

I've got over 1400 1:18. I've been collecting for some 20 years. Ran out of room to display them a long time ago. Easier to list what I don't have than what I have. Here's some of them:

Re: Model Collections

I have seen that picture before. Good thing those cars are not as valuable as GOLD BARS. You would defiinitely be in big trouble.

Re: Model Collections

I don't collect car models but I have a small World War II German Army mainly from the makes Tamiya and Dragon-Kirin.

Something like this (not my photo).



Most of mine are painted with oil paints because I feel it gives the soldiers a realistic look. You can recreate dirt and facial experessions so much better with oil paints IMO.

They're currently stored away in four boxes so I don't have the time or willpower to take pictures of them. I also have a bunch of tanks, guns, lot's of smaller accessories (extra guns, fuel cans, sand bags etc.) and I used to have a Ju-87B "Stuka" in 1:35 scale! I miss it...

Here's a cool site: http://www.missing-lynx.com/
