PKAA models

Just got a shipment of 3 PKAA Grand Prix models. Wow, they look cool! I got the BRM P83 - 1967 (Jackie Stewart's car), the 1965 Ferrari 1512 as driven at the Monaco GP and the 1964 Ferarri 158 as driven in the Mexican Grand Prix (in unusual Blue color!). The printing is impressive, clean. The parts are crammed on to two pages (3 for the BRM), but there seems to be quite a bit of detail. Here are some pictures:

The BRM:

and some pictures of the model:

and the Ferrari 1512:

and the 158:

The piece counts are not very high, but many small parts and tightly packed. I really think one of these will be very high on my build list, as I really think these cars are the coolest! Not sure if I really want to cut them up as they are quite beautiful, but I am sure I can get over that!

Please share these builds when you decide to do them. I've been looking at these models for a while and deciding when / if to pull the trigger and get some.

I got them through Half Moon Hobbies. Here is their site:

She has a lot of eras of Formula 1 from PKAA. PKAA has a website also, but it seems to be under construction (it is in Czech, so I don't understand it). Also, they advertise this site on the the official site:
