“My name is Alistair Brookman and I make 1:12 scale fully hand-built model Grand Prix Ferraris.”
From the humblest beginnings can come the most extraordinary things.
These models are 1:12 scale works of art, sought after by the most serious of collectors and historic racing fans. They’re built by hand from metal; brass, aluminium, stainless steel and co, with great precision over the course of many months and they drill down to extreme detail like removable body panels and individually-modeled hexagonal heads and rivets.
Alistair’s aim when building them is to create a realistic representation of the original racing car and emphasise its historic significance. What he’s created goes well beyond that. They’re absolutely mind boggling; truly extraordinary recreations of magic machines.
