[exhaust smoke]

I just saw that Renaissance have the Aston DBR9 as a future release in 1/24th scale!! :22yikes:

I hope that this is a kit that they get out on the market soon!! God, my heart is pounding!!

Wow, nice find! The DBR9 is such a fine car, too bad it didnt win its class in last years Le Mans.

I think that this is old news.

[Cold_Fire]

Why, oh why there are not more models of Aston Martin, Maserati and other forgotten dream cars

Must buy for me

[Veyron]

It is old news, here's the link where he started making the model.

Thanks Veyron, never saw that thread.

Looks like it is near complete, I wonder how long it will be before it is for sale?

Oh my God they work all manually. I guess they still using some CAD CAM tech to mould masters!!!

Very old new. Etienne started this project quite a while ago. You can see it there: (in french)

He had a bad luck yesterday with the model and there will be some more delays.

Errr... was a joke for my French friends... In fact, pattern is quite completed; this pic is from the original pattern, after first moulding; as you can see, vacuum moulding of a combination of polyester putty and resin is not easy, and result is always a break!

Sorry.

Suppose this wont be at all cheap when it comes out!

There is also a 1:12 model in the works from ABC Briannza. Will cost $$$, but should be a cracker.

[Veyron]

ABC is also working on a 1/12 Audi R8 which will accommodate LMM's 1/12 beautiful R8 engine kit.
