Whoops ! Don't be so quick to throw out those soda and beer cans. Heck, you might have a new model there.

For instance, a modeler in New Zealand, Sandy Sanderson, has been building some of his favorite vehicles using tin / aluminum cans of all sorts. From Dune Buggies to custom Hot Rods. Check out his detailed photo splash at Jalopnik.com to see his creations. I especially like his Guinness car, it reminds me of a Tom Daniel style vehicle.

Brass and metal large scale models.

Check out these hand made model replicas from somewhere in Europe.

I can't really read the text, but they look pretty impressive. Some of them are not painted, which really gives you a clear view of the craftsmanship involved. From bulldozers, heavy trucks, to shovel loaders.
