Wasn't this model featured in Fine Scale Modeler some time in the last year or so?

But are you sure he gives you novocaine for the pain while in his chair? Maybe his building skills are matched only by his enjoyment for inflicting pain to the patients... :wink:

This is probably the most moronic post I've read on these forums. Sounds like someone has a chip on their shoulder.

Even if he is a millionaire (I know plenty of doctors who aren't), does that take away from his efforts?

A terrific model, intricately done, a labour of love on his part. Everyone needs a hobby or some type of stress relief, and Dr Park is to be commended not only for creating his masterpiece, but sharing it with the world.

Cheers,
Matt

agreed, excellent work. was just funning. didn't mean to offend you jolly green. my brother in law lives a charmed life, & we needle him about it constantly in fun only, & he's a good sport about it. i can't knock success, bottom line.

No worries mate, I misread the funning aspect of your thread. That's the downside of discussion forums, it is hard to see when people are joking sometimes. I'm a little sensitive sometimes and I should have relaxed before deciding to post! Sorry if I came across harshly.

Anyway, no hard feelings eh?

Mind you, I'd love that guy's talent!

Cheers,
Matt
