[Gerardo]

Awesome use of light, background, reflection, color, black and white, but especially, light. Very cool.

[dalyduo]

Agreed... This guy has an eye and extraordinary devotion to detail. Never seen anything like it.

And Ellen thinks I have too much time on my hands over the winter.

[Kevin T]

That is very impressive.... It would make me crazy after awhile, all those little sets, making everything perfect for each image, i can speak from experience, it is very tedious work.

[LimeRockRacer]

It took me a minute to realize these were just model sets. The cleanliness was what made me think it was all too perfect for reality.

The Fury is second in my elderly heart only to a yellow '58 Chevy Impala convertible with blue upholstery, a Continental kit and fender skirts.
However, there's something about the trunk, doors and LR quarter panel that make the Plymouth a little scary.
Wait a minute. That's Christine we're talking about???? Never mind.

So this might be called the new adventures of old Christine

Re: Tao the Chinese submarine guy...

- Looks like the cockpit of every RT I've ever sat in...
- Would love to see reaction shots when he asks, "Anyone want to go for a ride?" Lots of scrambling... "Ohh Gee... Thanks Tao but I'm overdue at the old rice paddy." stuff.
- Fifth grade education, no measurements, all used parts in a home made submarine... What could possibly go wrong?
- "You seen Tao anywhere?..." "No, I thought he was with you?"
- At least we don't have to worry about being overshadowed by Chinese submarine technology this year.
- Just goes to show... All you need is a dollar and a dream.

hahaha hey, anythings possible and seeing video's of people with nothing and being able to do things unimaginable is what makes me keep my head up when things are going "not as planned" because as long as u keep at it, u can achieve it! idk, just felt like putting a lil of my $.02 feelings into that video.

But Dalyduo, those comments were hilarious!

WOW just WOW!

Crazy how everything works! I think the engine is the most amazing part of this creation.
I also think thats Jeremy Clarkson doing the interview! Def good find. I wonder if he already finished making the GT-40 or the other Ferrari he wanted to make seeing that this video already loooks like it took place couple of years back

I couldn't determine the overall size of that sub but unless I'm mistaken, didn't the Japanese build several tiny, 1 or 2 man subs that penetrated some of our west coast defenses during WWII ?

yes, they used several on 12/7/41 at Pearl, there is speculation the Arizona was a victim of one of their torpedoes

And then there is anyone whose work is in this museum:

But I think my favorite is this gentleman:

Wow. That's all I can say. Wow.

The love, passion, and energy infused into and exuding from his work is what speaks to you. A true artist.

Corsair. What a beast.

[Andor]

Mr. Park's work is incredible. I went deeper into the museums website and all there artistic work i just remarkable of what men (or women) can do with just time on their hand
