Michael Paul Smith, who could quite possibly be a giant for all we know, seems to have a passion for cars and photography. But as you can see from the above pic, he is quite big, or is he.  Michael has spent the last 25 years creating detailed 1/24 scale models, and brining them to life in Elgin Park. Elgin Park is a virtual community that he has created containing a collection of 1/24th scale recreations of everyday scenes from the middle of the 20th century.
