this is a good collection, You may find some shops in LP which I m sure your already aware, Or try Ebay (www.ebay.com) , they usually deliver world wide if you can pay the shipping,

I see dat you have several sizes of 1:18 and 1:24 and even larger, I like the 1:18, The first pics are really awesome

thanks rocker, have you purchased from eBay..? i once searched on eBay, but it was damn expensive :) i have a collection from 1:12 till 1:160. morris and mini is 1:12 :) :)

what's the name for the technique where you place a background poster/card (e.g. of some winding country road) and take the picture with a macro lens so it looks like a real car in a real scene?

(there's an example in the canon macro lens booklet... but I seem to have misplaced mine :( )

the background on the images are real on my one... ;) just a macro lens

I know; that's what gives it away as miniatures :)

with this technique it can be very hard to guess that they are miniature cars, esp. when you have such nice specimens

edit: found this example (http://www.lostateminor.com/2010/02/01/michael-paul-smiths-model-car-photography/) but it's only showing the use of a prop (the hoarding) whereas the background (trees) are the real deal. but it's good use of perspective because the lamppost and trees look the right size
