Dear collectors,

As the most of you know I am a true lover of Aston Martin. I only collect Aston Martin models from Frederic Suber, and sometimes other famous cars such as 250GTO and Miura and more. But basically I only focus on Aston Martin, simply because only Aston Martin makes me very very warm.

My next project in collaboration with Fred Suber I designed some parts for my next new models that is planned for November or December. These are the models to be built:
- Aston Martin One-77 Goodwood black
- Aston Martin Paris Motor Show 2010 concept car (in fact this model is made from clay, but it looks stunning!)
- Aston Martin One-77 metallic red (include signatures of some famous persons who are responsible for the realization of One-77 and how Aston Martin now is)

1/43 scale kits of Tecnomodel Aston Martin One-77 will be used for this project. But to be sure that my models will be very unique, I designed some new parts that Fred will apply: new rear wing, new rims for concept car and new footplates. Below you can see some pictures of the parts I have designed. The rear wing and the rims are 3D-printed in high resolution and are made of plastic. These parts are very very fragile, but in fact strong enough for the modelbuilding.

Enjoy the pictures below! Hopefully this subject is very interesting for everyone who read this blog. My message is that everyone can design their own parts if they want! If you have the know-how in home, then you can design your own parts to make your own model(s) very unique!

Of course, later when the Aston Martin One-77 models are finished, I will take some pictures and drop it here.

Kind regards! And have fun with collecting models (and building models)!

Hi Jono, when your Voisin is finished, please place some pictures of your Voisin on the forum. That would be nice!!

Thank you for the compliments guys!

Now it is my ambition to design new parts for the upcoming models such as V12 Zagato and the all new Vanquish (of course only original parts of Aston Martin). I really hope Tecnomodel will produce new kits of the both iconic Aston Martins.

I think the next model would be the DBR9 (2005 presentation version, based on Provence miniatures kit), without race-livery. But that would be end of 2013/begin 2014. Or possible earlier.

I also have a Tecnomodel kit of Aston Martin Rapide, but this Aston is not special enough to give it to Fred.

I am also looking for One-77 kits again. If one of you have one or more kits to left for selling, please let me know it.

Those are magnificent, Remco!
While I like the red one best of all, I would also be very happy with the black one.


Maybe one day I will be very lucky and Fred will finish my Voisin... :o(

Cool project! A spectacular model of a spectacular car!

Hi Jono, yes it is a long time ago I spoken you. Hopefully you are fine?
The red one would be special indeed. But this model would be a standard One-77 without extra additions. Only the signatures will make this red one very special for me.
First I want to take white, samilar to the car who is visible in National Geographic Megafactories Aston Martin...but I decided to choose for red, simply because I think this colour is better than white. I also have non-colours for the other 2 One-77s, so that is why red is the best choice.

The three models do have different rims (Goodwood rims, standard rims & concept car rims). Only the black Goodwood version will get an open rear wing.

I remember you mentioning this to me a while ago, Remco - nice to see it happening now. I am going to be very jealous of your metallic red One-77...
