Shooting 1:18 scale model cars and other toys

radiantm3 · 09-18-2014, 11:47 PM

Picked up some new 1:18 scale models and thought I'd share some photos of them. It's fun to shoot small things once in awhile. Anyone else like to practice lighting and shooting toys or am I the only weird one?

Well you might be weird but those are some nice pics and nice toys.

Nice models and pics!

Here are a few of mine.

These are 32nd scale slot cars from our race track.

You should pic this up
GT Spirit BMW M3 GTS 1:18 (Sealed Resin) I grabbed one and the detail is great.

Also, Just picked this up from minichamps since I missed the first release of the LeMans versions.

Glad to see I'm not the only one.

That M3 GTS looks great.

To the OP: who makes the models in your photos?

I remember as a kid, my brother and I have Bburagos.

AutoArt and Hot Wheels Elite. There's a wide range of quality when it comes to 1:18 scale model cars. You can go as cheap as $10-15 (when costco sells them) which are made by Maisto. I buy those for my kids since it's not a big deal if they break. The ones I buy for myself run anywhere from $100-200 because of all the detail. The Bburagos are probably in the range of the Maisto cars.
