Not sure if this has been posted before, but it is a model of a 1:3 scale Ferrari 312pb. Below is a link to a few photos. The second link is to a video of said model running. It has a fully functional 12 cylinder dry sump fuel injected engine. 15 years and 20,000 hours. Pierre Scerri is a modeling God.

I just wish my modeling reflected the skill this guy has in his little finger.

Alas there are some people that seem to possess near superhuman talent. I won't comment on some of my Airfix models that have suffered daughter related accidents followed by superglue repair jobs
There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

He must be self employed, independently wealthy, or have lots of free time. Figure in 15 years a person would amass approx. 31,000 of work based on a 40 hour week, with no vacation time taken.
