1927 Campbell Bluebird in 3D

I did a virtual 3D image of the Campbell record holder. I hope you like it.

Fabulous John! This is my Holy Grail in 1:43. One day perhaps...

I was lucky to find a Pandora model several years ago on the 2nd hand market at a reasonable price. It's a nice piece but I'd bet someone could do it better today. Of course, the car doesn't exist anymore and there are a finite number of period photos which makes modeling it difficult. Grab one when you see one.

I'd love to grab one...problem is my grab size is usually smaller than the price!

Amazing talent... You even included tracks from the tyres..... OR...

did you actually drive it into the mud? Must have, the tyres are dirty... 😉

I drove it there and got out on the other side.

That's why there are no foot prints.

Had you added the footprints, that pic would have been "eerie" good.
