  • New Camera Lens

    Finally able to take some better pictures. Bought one of those generic macro lens for my iPhone and surprisingly. It works pretty well. All tuned the light box a little better. Some of these are newer customs. Don’t remember which ones I’ve shown here before.

  • A Quartet of Randomness.

    Some prices I don’t think I’ve shown here before. These all have in common that they were experiments, early in my custom making journey. For a long time, I didn’t have any way of making decals or water slide transfers that were complicated or wrapped the entire casting. I’ve since found ways to make white…

  • Early Works, We All Start Somewhere.

  • Stormtroopers From The Planet Of Art Nouveau

  • Reviving An AAR Cuda: The Psychedelic Space Monkey Custom

    Space Monkey returns, this time from a psychedelic universe. I didn’t take a pic of the top, so the pics don’t show the whole figure, you’re looking at the arms on the side panels of the car. Casting is an AAR Cuda, one of my favorite cars and also was the very first casting I…
