I'd link the images, but if this works like flickr...

What else to say but damn, he's good.

That is crazy impressive. I want to know how he can get the car paint so perfect looking. I could NEVER get model cars paints to look like a natural paint job

Those are amazing. A couple of the buildings could do with some weathering but the weathered grounds are all perfect. Great way to blend in his backgrounds too.
I hope he continues to do more of these and I hope he changes his mind about having people in them.

Thats really cool.

Its amazeing that he can make you think something is real better than movies can do with CGI.

The picture with his head in the background made me giggle.

Same here. Its pretty impressive, when you have to have a giant head in the shot to prove its not a real street scene

Probably airbrushing... and it's fairly similar to using an airgun to paint an actual car... the only difference is that with a "big" car, you are getting basically a single coat of paint, whereas the model's need to be done with multiple coats, as well as the probability of him using a clear coat on top.
