    Models - amazing

     

      

    These are real enough to fool you .... but they are only models by M. Paul Smith .... which he made by hand.

    Simply amazing!

    I'm totally impressed by the models. I then thought how effective the Photoshop backgrounds were to contributing to the realism. Then, I realized that he was photographing them on site, matching the model perspective with the background. WOW.

    Wow, I feel quite untalented at the moment.  This guy has some really nice talent and brings about memories of great times in our nation's history.

    They remind me of O Winston Link's photographs of the Norfolk and Western railroad from the same era.

    Can't get the URL to work, but here is a link to some images:  http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&rlz=1C1CHMI_enUS322US322&um=1&q=O+Winston+Link&sa=N&start=0&ndsp=18

    Somebody sent this to me last week.  I'm pretty sure the cars are diecast models, so he didn't build those.  All the sets are home made and the photography is amazing.
