Wow, [wombat], you painted the rust and dirt right on that model! Is that Barbie inside? Why does she look so mad? |

Because of the highly detailed Parking Boot on the front wheel. |

One of the fresher proposals I've heard in quite a while. Advice for photo: use a large format combination with a narrow focal field, to make the photo look as if shot macro. |

(On a similar topic I reccomend the novelty sized (750ml) beer cans as well, after a few you begin to feel like you actual have shrunken) |

Excellent - this reminds me of Andy Clifford's aerial photos of Bristol which were made with a tilt/shift lens to make them look like models (see link). |
