    Unbelievable. The photography is great too, you can see how much that adds to the realism when you see an overall shot showing the diorama with the builder. Do you know if those are plastic model cars or diecasts? Whatever, they really work.

    Thanks for posting, those are some of the best I've seen yet.

    Great work! The perspective,scale and environs are perfect?

    I like the photo of his "giant" hand placing the bullet-nosed Stude coupe.

    Quite possibly the best model builder I've seen.... AND a hell of a photographer and setup guy.

    I just spent a while looking at his other pics on flicker. all the buildings are full of furniture and stuff. very well detailed inside and out.

    too bad he's not a HOT ROD guy.


    oh yeah... no photoshop either.
