Junkyard Diorama

Hi everyone!

We, my brother Iggy & I (Seb), are working on a huge Junkyard Diorama project (1/24), including lots of cars, a barn, a gas station, and lots of other stuff.
We started a website (http://www.modeljunkyard.com) to share our work (pictures, videos, wallpapers, etc) with all junkyard fans and to sell some stuff (tutorials, t-shirts, etc) to finance this great project.
I invite you all to visit our Website, you can download some nice Wallpapers for free and see videos and images of our junk cars.

The pictures you see here are 1/24 model kits built as junk cars. The landscapes are real (holiday pictures). We photoshoped the cars into the landscapes. I love to do that, you get a much better impression of the model car when surrounded by the "real" context.

We are always happy to meet other model car fans to exchange ideas, tips, etc. If you have some questions about our work, just let us know!


Cheers,

Seb & Iggy

Really awesome looking models! Can't wait to see the finished diorama!

I'm taking one of my sisters failed attempts of a model into a junkyard cars like these. The problem... I know how to build a model to make it look GOOD. PROBLEM: I dont know how to weather it and make it look old, rusted, and weathered. Got any tutorials, tips or tricks? you're welcome to Pm me if you wanna keep it off this page. I love what you guys are doing with the whole JY scene. good work
