Though maybe we could do a seperate section/thread, to share photos of models from around the web, by others, that are quality, intersting, creative, fun and/or inspiring works.

Wherever possible it would be great to post the builder, and any info on the subject.

Extreme modeling really is some kind of (usually) benign mental affliction. Most don't need padded walls for their workrooms, but I'm sure there are exceptions.

The motorcycle is amazing ... and really cool to see that in unpainted state to admire the construction.

Regarding the cathedral made of matchsticks ... how the heck do you make stained glass out of matchsticks?  ???
