You can bet that takes a LOT of time.

I've seen his work before. I'm always amazed by the seams on his automobiles. Usually when folks try to do that kind of thing, the gaps in the auto bodies give it away.

Based on what I've read on another site, this guy doesn't build the car models, only the dioramas. He buys them... they're diecast models from places like Danbury Mint, etc. that are most likely from China. The seams aren't that great when you look at them a little closer, but they're not bad...



Here's an example of some really bad seams... I haven't seen any models with seams anywhere near this bad in this guy's photos...
