Amazing....
The first pictures seem to be paper/thin cardboard models and the other ones would indeed probably be wood. Imagine carving an Elephant from a blok of wood!! Never mind PE and Resin.

It would be really stupic if they were inacurate, I mean, to have the vehicles right in front of you and not to model them acurate should be a crime!! :-)

True as this may be, what is the vehicle in the last picture supposed to be?!
A secret weapon???
