    Wow - Thanks for your comments guys!

    The display cases are the 'Bertby' ones from Ikea. I'll post more pics later.

    The artwork is done on my PC, using Coreldraw/Photoshop. The Murcielgo picture has an Autoart 1:64 model in it too.

    The chair is also from Ikea (about £19GBP). It's fairly cheap and nasty but with some white self adhesive vinyl, strips of electrician's tape and a ferrari sticker it becomes a Challenge Stradale!

    I absolutely love it! I would love to have some of those prints hanging in my garage and a few of those chairs as well.
    Are you planing on being in Arizona anytime soon? we could redo my whole house.:)

    I love the chair! The Pics are really cool! Great work! I like the 1:64 AUTOart Lambo in the pic as well.

    Some of the best things in a collection are the ones you create yourself.

    They are amazing. How long did they take to make? I hope to hear back.

    Yes they are. I think you get 9 shelves per unit - I had another unit in a different colour so used shelves from that to add to my two silver ones but I still ee more space!

    Everything is great!

    What did you use to make the mesh Ferrari/Lambo at the bottom of the display cases? Also, how did you install the light behind it?

    I just chased them up here also. They retail for AU $200. :D:D

    When the time comes, I will be getting some myself. They come in 3 colours that all look great. Light comes with by the looks of it. :):)

    They fit nicely on that slender wall between garage doors, too.

    BTW - You are very talented (chair, prints, and model inside glass with print).
