There are some masterbuilders from the east that are creating mindblowing models.
Akihiro (its fantastic to see his work here), MOMO, Rosso, shimoma,
Nomura (sorry if I forgot a name)
Can anyone here tell and show us more?

You just realised this Hans? They have been creating masterpieces for over 10 years now...possibly more. IMO it has a lot to do with the culture...they strive for originality and perfection.

I think the main difference is the process...the way they arrive to the final result...this is the most significant and original part, they use a completely different technical approach to model building, a really distinct way to organize the whole process.
Is not a matter of perfection...i think several european and american builders arrive very near to perfection too in their buildings, but the mental process is completely different...and for this reason amazing.

You are correct Peter, its a different world and culture

Otherwise you get pictures that don't render the beauty of this models.
This is what has prevented me to make my own site.
Then it's interesting to see the WIPs of this buildings.



Perhaps Max Tu would be willing to photograph your models. He does a fine job!

and another master craftsman from the East is Laurent Tay (Garage 43). Even Jacques Brauer praises him. Jacques once commented in my email exchange to him on Laurent-"This man has skill"

Another is Mr. Takumi Inaba. You can see his Speedster Outlaw in my Gallery. He recently finished a yellow Ferrari 365 GTS/4 Daytona Spyder for my customer who owns the real car, absolute perfection.

Another one is Watanabe from Studio Rosso, http://www.geocities.jp/studio_rosso2004/
fantastic job, especially appreciate his models of the 20s and 30s

Piero, you have some treasures!

They deserve to be photographed!
They deserve their own art-site!
Would love to see some detailshots of the Shamoma's!

Isn't Max available for an italian vacation?
(just kidding)

This will most likely grow to a very interesting thread. The skill and different philosophy of the Japanese masters is worth more than just a few postings.
moriaan Posted - 05/19/2011 : 03:21:14
I meant Rosso Chan.
the.x.man Posted - 05/18/2011 : 17:00:41
I think Hans meant Chan of Rosso Miniatures, in Hong Kong.
