Special Editions of M3's as miniatures.

Hello again,

This weekend I was able to collect my BMW M4 GTS in Frozen Dark Grey.... in scale 1:18.

It isn't the best quality miniature, especially when we compare it to the brilliant M3 E30 manufactured by AUTOart, but still, I'm in love with the set which is finally completed now in my collection. These models all together look gorgous. About 3 months ago, during BMW training I saw the same set but as a real one and the view was breathtaking.

I wish my 1:1 garage would look like this in a few years.

Starring:
1990 BMW M3 (E30) Sport Evolution - AUTOart 70561
1995 BMW M3 (E36) GT - OttO Mobile OTO98
2003 BMW M3 (E46) CSL - OttO Mobile OT177
2010 BMW M3 (E92) GTS - GT Spirit GT015
2016 BMW M4 (F82) GTS - Minichamps 80 43 2 411 555

jmg · 09-04-2016, 11:25 AM

Nice looking models and great photos! Are you a photographer?

CARBON1230 · 09-04-2016, 11:36 AM

Thank you!

jmg I would't name photographer a person who shoots his "toys" with an iPhone but thank you.

You can find rest of my photos on the site which evdok posted above but they are just amateur pics captured to fulfill my free time.

buddalun · 09-04-2016, 11:48 AM

Awesome collection; very well curated and selected. I love models and I especially love M-based models featuring the greatest hits!

TrAcK TRaP · 09-04-2016, 11:50 AM

Well, those shots are well composed and the lighting was very effective, so I would say you are a photographer by hobby at least. I have a few "toy" shots on my instagram:

essex_lad · 09-04-2016, 04:59 PM

That's quality.

CARBON1230 · 09-04-2016, 05:16 PM

Thx again guys!

jmg - then I should consider name myself as photographer by hobby. It sound like a good etiquette for my needs. Thank you!

P.S. I watched your Insta and flickr galleries, and that is what I call a good photos.

Yeineken · 09-05-2016, 01:33 PM

If you hadn't told me they were 1:18 it would have taken me a while to figure out!

Awesome collection.

Off topic but sort of on topic: anyone know of an M2 or M2 Safety Car 1:18 in the works? Would look good next to my 1M Moto GP 1:18

Brasko · 09-05-2016, 06:54 PM

Rad!

jgoens · 09-06-2016, 10:54 AM

I don't know where I got it, but here is my m5.

Just saw the M4 GTS release this week. Minichamps used to be among the best 10yrs ago. The offerings lately do not justify their pricing. I know I give up opening parts with GT-Spirit and Otto, but man they get the stance and details perfect and for half the price.

ExxelDistributions · 09-07-2016, 10:52 AM

that's so cool! nice collection. they actually look real from far away lol

Thanks! Now I need to pick up some 1:18 models like yours!

dantm3 · 09-07-2016, 11:02 AM

I think they look real to me... They look like real cars

BigDog · 09-07-2016, 11:04 AM

Pffft kiddie toys....

Oh hell who am I kidding?! I really want one, wondering if they make the regular F80 in Yas Marina/Black
