Nothing really new. Vlad has popped up on social media recently. All we know is he and his family made it out of Ukraine safely. Perhaps someone else has heard from him?

Here is what he had to say on July 24 about his model work:

Five months ago, Russia launched a full scale war against Ukraine. Five months ago, I had to stop assembling the 1905 Cadillac Osceola Coupe. I have been staying with my family out of my homeland for almost five months.
Unfortunately, I cannot continue assembling Osceola at this time. Before the invasion, only four buyers managed to get the miniature. I want to appeal to other customers: don't worry, all model sets are saved and waiting for my return. You will definitely get them after the Ukraine victory.
 
He went on to talk about Russia's brutal invasion, which we all see daily on the news. As you may recall, I am one of the four buyers.
