AmericanMuscleFan Posted January 6, 2024 Share Posted January 6, 2024 Dear Claude, 2023 was what we could call a "grand cru" as we say in French for the master of styrene and thank you for this forum to offer the opportunity to a large audience to be able to appreciate! I had the chance to see them in the flesh as you say so well and I can confirm that the camera lens did not improve these gems in any way because they look just as beautiful on the exhibition table! ? Thank you for the endless inspiration you produce my friend, fun with styrene! ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Whalen Posted January 6, 2024 Share Posted January 6, 2024 What a fantastic collection of models! Variety, imagination, and skill are all evident - it looks like you're making the most of your retirement! Let's hope that more of us will be able to so, either now for those who are already retired, or in the future for those of us still working.

I always enjoy your amazing creations. Your imaginative builds have so many “little” details, the more you look, the more you see. A master at work! Great variety of subjects as usual, impossible for me to pick a favourite as I like them all for different reasons. I missed a few of these thru the year, so thank you for sharing again. Cheers, Steve Hi Steve! Thank you, and the best to you in 24. I'm certain you'll surprise us with some high caliber stuff... Again!

roadkill Posted January 22, 2024 Share Posted January 22, 2024 G'day maaate, you clearly have a wicked imagination, a bit like my, and you do beautiful work, but I do have one question for you, what is and where did you get that amazing gold on the Harley bike.
