Exhibition at Axis Symposia



























I missed the name of the maker of these bikes, but he builds them from scratch, scale 1/9, only buying prefabs like screws and cables -everything else is made from zero, even tires! Also, if I understood it right he doesn't start from drawings but rather builds them based on pictures and a careful eyeing of proportions and details. I think that's why some stuff look slightly off, but in my opinion it just adds character, someone said he built 40 models in 20 years (or vice versa?). I took a day off from work to catch the last day of the exhibition but ran in to my boss at the venue... damn, can't a guy have some privacy! The boxes are also nice btw.
