Just learned Modeling Great Don Fahrni has passed. Those of you that knew his work will remember his drag models and all the great detail. Those that might be too young or didn't know of him, look up his work. RIP Don, you will be missed by many.

It took me a bit, but I found several photos of his work. Here is a photo depicting the detail he produced. The link is to a Fotki page that "Vince Putt" put up of some of Don's work. Pretty incredible, for sure. I'm not familiar with either of these guys. I just found this link when I did a search.

He will surely be missed by many. He and his work was one of the things that got me back into drag car modeling as an adult. I never asked him a question that he didn't try to answer. Even when it was a dumb question. He was a good man. RIP

Too many models - not enough time
