And of course, I should show what I've been working on:

Not really sure where I'm going with this, but I really wanted to make a quick model with the new 'Halo' Head protection thing that is likely to be introduced (see here), and see what its like to drive with this (wish I had VR.. if anyone does and wants a go, let me know ).

Anyway, got a bit carried away and began just modelling blindly with no real vision of what I wanted to do. If anyone wants to give any input on where this could go, give me a shout!

It’d be awesome if you made it a “de-regulated” formula prototype car.

finishing off the village of Holzhausen with revised half-timbered houses

Love German pragmatism, village name means "wooden houses" ---- houses in the village are made of wood

Work's gone a bit quieter so I thought I'd get back onto Battenbergring, finishing off the village of Holzhausen with revised half-timbered houses and real-life church.

As ever, that looks absolutely stunning and really looking forward to it thank you. I love the church at Fonteny - it's an excellent landmark - and this one looks even more detailed.

I was so excited to be working on AC stuff again that I couldn't wait to post

Please don't wait! It's the WIP thread, the more pics you put of the journey, the more obvious it is the sheer amount of 'W' you put into it!

There's a town near me called 'Killinghall' that I've always been too scared to look into the origin of...

And if it comes to the WIP of a VIP, I'll even drool over the mere wire frame

so please keep 'em coming David

Exactly. It's a good job I went back and replaced the place-holder stone houses I had used from my Feldbergring track

sure created something over the last year... looks almost ready if you squint. Made a huge step and actually "snapped" the satellite terrain to the grass areas. Before there was a ~20cm gap everywhere

That's an incredible quality for a track where all of my races inevitably end in an accident at the first corner - my hat off to you sir.

Looks really good Matthias, can't wait for the final result! It looks like it has a GoKart track; I'll have to add it to my ever growing list to model....

I'm not ruling out modelling that kart track myself, but it's way down the list. I want to first make the GP track in "track test day" mode, as that is how I experienced it myself when I went their with a friend who has a track car. Next step would be "DTM mode" with extra grand stands and stuff.

I've always dreams about beautiful 1967 Ferrari 312/67 with modern V12 engine and etc. So, I watched some tutoriasl (

) on YT about modeling in AC and decided to make my drem come true. So ggere it is, Frankenstein himself

Ferrari 044/1 3.0 V12 engine, which makes 700 HP

Ferrari 312 T aero mixed with Ferrari 412 T2 aero
Pirelli tyres are just texture, likes Mr Villeneuve said, those beasts need to slide in the corners. But it's more like slidening in the 70s car
Oh and something which is important just like the engine, 6 geras gearbox from Ferrari 412 t2

If anyone is interested I can record some laps with this beast. I was expecting this to be crap, Yknow, 60s tyres, no areo, huge engine and etc. But it really fun to drive
