Absolutely mind-boggling work. This is one of the best, if not the best builds I've ever seen. Congratulations!

Props to you on such an accomplishment. I can't imagine the dedication and focus it took to finish that in such a high level of quality and execution.

Feel free to wow us again with your works in the future!

Re: 1/8 Porsche 908/03

This reminds be of the model Ferrari with the working engine and gearbox... are you related to that guy? haha
Stunning work! The more you look at the pictures the more things that keep appearing. I really like the fiberglass.

I can't believe it's finished. A pure work of art.

I don't think I'm alone in requesting one more photo. We need one with you holding it so we can see some scale. Please?

I followed the WIP thread religously but never commented simply because I couldn't find the superlatives to do it justice. Congradulations on a true masterpiece. Absolutely incredible!

To me , the focus and dedication it need, your search for the exact minutes details, the perfection of the execution, and artistic level of all this piece, made you a the really great if not the best of all modeller that i have seen on any forum .

Be proud of yourself !

Congratulation

Re: 1/8 Porsche 908/03

This is an absolutley amazing piece of art. I say art because this Porsche grew beyond being called a model back in 2008. I am glad I was able to follow the build for most of the time it was in progress. I look forward to your next masterpiece.

Re: 1/8 Porsche 908/03

SB, Thank you very much for the countless hours of enjoyment you have given me (and I think many more) with this incredible build.
Man, you sure took scale- and scratch building to another level. Impressive, the eye for detail, wiring, etc, etc...
There are just not enough words to express the appreciation one should have for this build. This is really museum quality.
I hope to be able to achieve this kind of standard some day, but I think I've taken the wrong hobby for this (should have taken up knitting or so).
I can only take my hat of to you sir and take a deep bow.

Mark

Re: 1/8 Porsche 908/03

I was sitting and enjoying this one over time, it is for sure one of the best WIP I ever folowed. Finished pictures look great but they don't show all the work done, but WIP is true masterpiece. Hat down, bravo!
