Dear Aventador,

nice work you´re presenting here. I have this low-priced but fine diecast also.

It was a pleasure to see, that HD did a PE-Set for it. I´ll order it also for mine.

May you do well.

Dirk

The Aston is very nice; I'm about to get one myself...but I'm more psyched about the Bentley! Can't believe it has taken so long to get a 1/24 Continental GT.

Both are Welly. The Aston is pretty easy to find now (Ebay etc), it just got released in the US. The Bentley is new, so it might be awhile before finding in the US; I've seen some advance order info from a seller in the Netherlands...in fact that's the only thing I had seen whatsoever until this photo. Tom's Modelauto's in the NL has the Bentley in white, a gray version coming soon...

Re: 1/24 aston martin v12 vantage

Crap. I just paid attention to the photo; that Bentley is the same size as the Aston. Those Astons are not big cars. No way in hell that Bentley is 1/24 scale...Welly screws it up yet again. I have no idea why they do the stupid "box scale" nonsense...I despise 1/26 and 1/27th scale models... Often they'll say what scale it is, but lately they don't seem to bother-they'll say 1/24 even when it is clearly 1/27.

Correct me if i´m wrong, but in scale the Bentley should be only 17mm shorter and 2mm less wide than the Aston. I think that´s very hard to see from only 2 pictures made from those angles.
I have the Vantage only so i can´t compare.

Maybe "Aventador" is so kind to measure both models for us.

@Aventador
Nice start, i like the colour you´ve chosen.

The Bentley is a much larger car than the Aston - no way it should be shorter.

Re: 1/24 aston martin v12 vantage

I´m sorry, you´re right of course. I meant it the other way round.
The Aston should be 17mm shorter and 2mm less wide.

Guys, just let me remind you that, this is actually the end of this WIP, you don't have to expect him to "finish" something. I agree with Bob and Bernard, the Bentley should be much bigger.
