1st Model

Vehicles & Transport

A comparative model showcasing the difference between 50 years of F1 car development with championship-winning cars.

Both cars side by side from a distance.

A close up of the Ferrari 312T

Both Models were made from scratch in Rhino 7 before being sent to 3D print in PLA, with other more fragile components such as the wings being 3D printed in Resin. Everything was sanded to a high grit with rounds of filler primer to ensure a smooth finish before being cellulose sprayed and buffed, with decals being applied by hand later on. Both Cars are 1:10 scale to ensure I could include as much detail as possible.

2nd Model

Other

Editorial model made for a hypothetical cover of The New Scientist magazine.

All are made purposely with different techniques and processes, such as silver soldering as well as moulding and casting.
