Here is one for now: 1:43 Minichamps Buessing 8000 S Canvas Truck (Blue/Red)

flotsam, its some real rare collection. I love it. Do you have more truck/CV models?

Wow, superb photos! How did you do the lighting?

@hanmust: Minichamps are certainly worth the asking price. They make some fabulous models. Also I have bought an 1:18 Autoart W124 Mercedes E320. Just waiting for it to come home.

Thanks, I used a candle as the light source ... switched off all other lights in the room. Was just playing around with slow shutterspeeds.

Thanks, sudharma, I liked your classic collection, too.
Here are 2 more of mine:
1. Mercedes-Benz Atego 'DHL', Schuco 1:87/HO Scale

2. Iveco/MAN dumper truck, Wiking 1:87/HO Scale

Dippy · 9th September 2009, 11:23

Nice trucks flotsam. Those are quite detailed for 1:87 scale. How about posting your entire truck collection in one photograph?

Ok, Dippy, that's a good idea! Now to get them all together in one frame. Perhaps this weekend.
