SIX MP4/6 garage, Phoenix 1991

Post by plastiksurgeon »

Gentlemen,

I give to you six years of work, five for Jim Petersen (car 2) and I (car 1) to build the two 1/12 Tamiya MP4/6 identical models, and another year for me to build the garage and props. Garage and props were scratchbuilt for the most part, and the figures were kit-bashed from Tamiya and dollhouse figures, with heads from the Marvel toy industry. Heads and hands were made movable for photography poses. Both cars have full tilt Top Studio, Mac's Alum wheels, RBMotion stuff everywhere, Rain tires and setup wheels from Derek at ICON, Body and chassis stands from Jeff Wallen and hundreds more little this and that stuff all over the place.

These images were cut from the herd of 123 finished images from seven shoots, each around ten hours, and then probably 100-120 hours at the box finishing images and designing a 110 page book. I just can't stop once I get rollin' !

Enjoy !

Cheers,
Steve Mohlenkamp
