Most of you have seen Shin's work on my website during the past years. His models sell so quickly that I have to move the images to my Gallery the same day I list them on my homepage. Shin has launched his own website and you will enjoy browsing his Gallery now. You will also see next projects and a new line of superkits he is producing himself. The first will be the Porsche 993 and I will have them available around October. I will be asking Shin to build a model of my old 993 C4S, can't wait! You will find a link to Shin's site on my homepage now but you can jump there from this post right now. He is still working on the site so keep checking back. Enjoy!

Shin is almost finished with his first 993 TT, I hope to have pictures or maybe the model soon. I am very anxious to see this one having owned a 1997 993 C4S, one of my favorite cars. Mike

Hopefully there will be pictures soon. Would be interesting to know which model is the most sought after in kit form. The CTR is the most exclusive in real life, if I had owned a 993 myself I would buy the kit which builds my car in miniature.

I have not been able to reach Shin either. I have been sending emails for weeks and no reply. He did reply to a customer in Thailand just a couple of weeks ago so I know he is checking email but have no idea why he does not reply to others. He is a very talented builder but I fear he will have a difficult time being successful. Timely communication is a critical part of this business. It's a shame.

You will also notice I have removed the link to Shin's site on my homepage. I get questions from collectors that I cannot answer if I can't get a reply from Shin so I won't be putting myself in that position anymore. Perhaps some of you guys can get a reply. I have given up. Good luck!
