You have to see this...
« on: February 10, 2010, 13:05:22 »
from our friend and member here, Mike Webster.  He sent this link.

Understand the photos you are looking at are all miniature models, probably 1/18 scale...you have to see most of the slides to see the few that give away the reality.  Some folks have sent me instructions on how to make "real, live" shots look like these...

Very impressive but almost creepy.  It reminds me of the model town in the movie Beetljuice!   We all could end up there some day!

This has been circulating for a while on a number of forums.  The cars are all diecast.
