The P-51 Mustang model was built by Young C. Park, the 2002 Joe Martin Foundation Craftsman of the Year. Here's his page on the Internet Craftsmanship Museum.

And yes, it's an amazing model!

Dang!

I'd seen some photos of his work in the magazine, but these shots are outrageous.

The gun bay and fillet construction make me wanna weep.

There has been some speculation that Young C. Park actually learned the art of head shrinking from a tribe in New Guinea, and has figured out how to apply it to metal. The P-51 Mustang and the F-4U Corsair are actually real airplanes that he managed to shrink....Unfortunately, he's been unable to find a miniature pilot or mechanic.
