I've mentioned many times, "I sweat the small stuff!"    With every project, I try to improve.... if I'm not great, I'm just good.   "Good"  is OK, but....     There's always someone to admire.   To that that end, here's a bit of inspiration the next time YOU create a 1/18 diorama, or backdrop for your models.   This guy's got the gift.   😏 🤨

I will say this.... although I still can't bring myself to purchase a 1/18 sealed resin, they DO seem to photograph better than "gappy"  diecast jobs.   

Slick paint, crispness of the lensing, and scale seems & gaps REALLY help in these circumstances.   I'm not certain too many full-function  diecasts could've pulled off such a convincing illusion as well as this BOS resin Fleetwood.    🤔 🤨
