So I design and build paper models.
Years ago I created some small car models for myself and it started an entire collection called Koolwheelz.
(Koolwheelz models are shared online and are free to download and build)
These are models of vehicles that have special meaning or connection to me
and its a personal challenge to stylize and simplify the design down to as few parts as possible.
Plus, all the parts (and some build photos) must fit onto one letter size sheet of cardstock.
(Okay, so I have been forced to do a few two-page and three-page models! but its rare)
I also happen to love Tom Daniels designs, I had many of his kits as a kid.
And being an artist myself, I appreciate his amazing talent and style.
I've created close to a dozen Koolwheelz models of Tom Daniels designs so far.
I'm sure there will be more.
Heres a look, starting with two of my favorites: The Munster's kars.
Yes, both of these designed by Tom Daniels (and built in real life by others for Barris Kustoms)

Yes. I know. I put the pipes on backwards (on Drag-U-La)
