    Amazing talent you have there! Where do you get your wheels from? I have a 1:18 model of a Subaru and I'm trying to get hold of some wheels to make it look the same as my own actual car.

    I swear you photoshoped real cars on to your background! Excellent work,detail is amazing!
    Any plans to do a Xpack of some sort?
    Oh! the abandoned cossie is not right. It still has the engine in, which is unusual! LOL.
