That is really beautiful work and I, for one, would love to see more from Tom.

Oh so would I!

Here are some pics of a wild cool Brother Rat Fink build by UMA's own Mark McGovern:







Mark built this Brother Rat Fink for Rob Mattison, the producer of the Monster Model Review.

It's a shame what Photobucket has done to these sites losing all the photos or blurring them.  I killed my account with them, using a new one so hopefully we won't see that happen again.  Lot's of great stuff on here tho.  I remember Weldon from way back, he does some crazy kool work!  I didn't know you had a specific thread for this or would have posted my stuff here.  I will in the future.

This is a Rat Fink I did for Von Franco a few years ago.  I never get tired of building these little guys....

Here's a couple more Rat Finks I did.  One was for Mike Wolfe from American Pickers, the other went to a client/ friends and it matches their show winning chopper motorcycle.....

I heard he had some health issues years ago, but not sure.

Well here's one more before I call it a day, Roth's "Mothers Worry".  This was a commissioned piece I did for one of my regular clients who also digs anything Roth!

 :o YOICKS!  I gotta show the pics of your collection to my wife, Hep'!  She needs to see how bad it can get - er, how good she's got it!

Tim Nolan, the Finks are wild and crazy kits, and your paint jobs are perfectly suited for them!

...Mark built this Brother Rat Fink for model kit collector Mike Blanchard who owns The Core comic shop in Cedar Falls, Iowa. 8)
Actually, Rob Mattison, who produces the Monster Model Review series, has that one.  I did a Scuz Fink for Mike.  ;)
