Most of them look to be 1/18 scale. I think most of them are models you can just buy right off the shelf. That early model Corvair is a Sun Star model.

He definitely has added his own touches to some of them.

EDIT: I was just looking at his photostream and it looks like he uses different model sizes.

What a talented guy. I'd love to have him build a midcentury modern model house for me.

Just amazing work overall. Great that he now has an outlet to share it.

This picture and the other one of these two models shows the best (and most difficult) part of some of his pictures. The cars and foreground are models he built but the background is real. Trying to set that up so that the scaling of the background is correct is not very easy.
