Here's my Packard in green/white. For these photos I chose a different background setting I've not used before.

WOW, John, amazing model and pics. I'd love to get in on 1/43, but I'm about out of room for 1/24. I think that would be a slippery slope.😲

Very fitting background John. I look forward to seeing your beautifully photographed models.

You are correct about a “slippery slope”. That was my concern, when I considered buying my first 1/43 scale model.

Geno, Tis is the hayday of 1/43 scale models. Years ago I ran out of room for any more 1/18 and 1/24 scale models. I had been collecting 1/43 scale primarily white metal and then along comes resin at a price that seemed affordable. Long story short, I have been addicted for several years now to a point that I'm almost out of room for 1/43 now. Never in my wildest dreams did I think we would see the details that are available in this scale. Slippery slope, yes it is.
