- I was fortunate to pay my friend Sean Svendsen a visit after the Saturday Columbus show. Sean is the box art and decal artist for Mobeus, AMT/Round2, and Revell. Enjoy this tour of his amazing man cave. You'll recognize the models in his cases from many boxes.
His website with his builds: www.svensworldofwheels.com

Awesome interview and glimpse into his model cave. loved the whole thing especially the flame trim around the door in the beginning. So his box art work/review builds really wasn't too long ago. thanks for the journey!
Thanks for watching Dean, right his first box art illustration was 2006.
🌴🌲🌳📦
Really outside the box for you.
Enjoy expanding your Universe!
Yes, I really want to make the SME into something for everyone and nobody in particular.
Very cool place, looks more like a museum. Sean is a great and talented modeler and a big inspiration to a lot of us out here!
Seriously Marcos, it was like a museum of cool!
I love Sean’s clean and cool model building. Thanks for the interview and tour.
My pleasure, I feel honored.
Very very cool James. Sean is clearly an incredibly talented guy and what an awesome space he has there. Thanks so much for for sharing.
What an amazing collection! He’s really talented. Yet again, you’ve given me more inspiration to keep forging ahead! Thanks!!
Thanks for watching Steven, now go build something 👍
Fascinating!!! It always seemed magical to me wondering who does the art on the boxes! Ohio seems to be the heart of talented builders! 1 of 1 beautiful models! Hats off to you ,Sean and Steve Goldman! That’s a name I haven’t heard of for a minute, hi Steve 👋🏻!👉🏻🫡🫡👈🏻🤔😎🇺🇸
Hey Kevin, the box art sells the kit! Sean does a wonderful job with them.
@@ScaleModelExperiment ubetcha what a great talent and person 🤔🇺🇸
Wow!!!!!! What a clean, amazing hobby room!! 👏 great video, james!!
I owe it all to Sean, he was a gracious host and interesting person to hang out with.
I've been a big fan of Sean's since I found his website 10+ years ago. The Wynns 777 Cougar box art was a surprise to me when I found the kit at my hobby shop. I follow his Facebook too.
I love looking at his website builds for inspiration on my cars. 👋
Same same Gary, I’ve been a fan of Sean’s for a long time and only got to meet him last year. Great guy and an awesome builder.
AMAZING! We have some super talented modelers in Ohio. Thanks for sharing this James.
Yes sir David! So much talent. Must be the long winters 😜.
Mr James thanks for sharing this cool video of Sean"s Man cave. I got some Mobeus Ford truck kits which he sure did the art work on!!👌👌👌👌👌
Thanks for watching Willy, yes that’s all Sean’s work all over the box!
Great interview James! It was neat listening to Steve and seeing all his stuff. He is a very talented artist and model builder. 😎👍
Glad you enjoyed it, I totally agree!
What a superb collection! Thanks for sharing with us, James.
My pleasure Ray, Sean deserves some credit for his work.
Oh wow, that's an amazing place and collection right there 😳 Well done Sean, a true inspiration to all of us modellers and thank you James for filming and sharing this experience with us all 😊👍🏼
Thanks Karl, I’d love to tour your place someday 😁
@@ScaleModelExperiment sure James, no problem at all about that! Just know that it's only a tiny little room 😀 no comparison to this lovely basement we've just seen in this video 😊👍🏼
Really nice video. It is always nice to see interviews at the place of the person being interviewed. He has a really nice “man cave.” He does great work. Thanks for sharing.
I totally agree, I enjoy Doug White’s interviews when he goes to people’s houses. Thanks for watching bud.
@@ScaleModelExperiment I enjoy those videos as well.
That’s a lot of stuff. Haha. Nice to have a full dedicated room for your things and then to have it all displayed so nicely. Awesome work. Not going to lie, a little jealous. 🤣🤣
Me too Spencer! I want a couch in mine. Hehe
Yowzers! awesome tour of Sean's hobby room. Very cool! Thanks guys.
It was an awesome experience and Sean is a great guy! Thanks for watching 👍
Great video, James. I enjoyed your interview of Sean and showing his work. That Dodge Monaco he built reminded me a little bit of the mid 70's Road Runner based off the Fury. He does excellent work, whether luring us in with his awesome box art or building a model.
Thanks for watching Rob, I had a great time at Sean’s place. He is a very good builder and wonderfully talented artist. I look forward to more projects with him in the future.
I have followed his model work which is awesome and his box art is equally great
I too have followed him for years and only met in person just last year even though we live 3 hours away!
What and awesome episode, thoroughly enjoyed it, thanks for sharing 👍 🍻🍻🍻🇦🇺🤝😊👍
Glad you enjoyed it, it was a good time!
That's quite the hobby I would like to have when I grow up lol.
When we grow up!😬👉🏻😝👈🏻
For sure Mars! Me too!
Great video, and his collection is nice.
Thanks Joe, I totally agree 👍
Love the box art and the Stratus!
I know, right Billy? Do you think he would miss it if it disappeared?
Very cool video to see Sean's stash. Been a fan of his for a while.
One of these days I’ll make it to your house too Tim. I’m sure you have lots of cool and interesting stories to share. 👍
Thanks for sharing this video James! His place is awesome! I recognized the artists name on my model boxes but didn't know you would have a connection to him today! The model box artwork i have from him are the Mobiues 67 Ford pick up and the Kenz & Leslie cougar funny car. Glad to see the artist and his " museum" on your channel!
I’m glad that you enjoyed the video Ray, Sean and I have been talking about doing this video for a long time. I like the way it turned out.
That was fun - thanks!
Thanks for watching Rick, I had a good time too 👍
Amazing talent and an amazing collection of work!
Awesome video! Sean has been my favorite builder ever since I stumbled across his website circa 03-04. So cool to see the models in the cases that I've looked at what seems like 1000 times for ideas and inspiration. Thank you both so much!
I too have been a fan of Sean’s work for ages. He’s a genuine great guy. Thanks for watching 👍
Very cool collection and layout ❤😊
Thanks Shawn! I was in awe when I saw it!
Absolutely Wow. Thanks for sharing. I wouldn't of left.
Vary cool really enjoyed thanks James
Glad you enjoyed the video Deen 👍
This was a great interview James. Loved every second of it. Thank you and great job!
Thanks so much for watching the video, I’m lucky to have had the opportunity to hang out with Sean.
@@ScaleModelExperiment Thank you James. We're lucky to have guys like you out there getting this content for modelers.
That low rider its Wicked!
Exceptional Work!.
I’m glad you enjoyed the video Nikolaos!
only once I did so good job wiith the paint job. and it was with enamels ,I think it was MOLAC paints. very good enamel paits.
no longer in production.
bummer....
as a graphic designer, l like how american model kit boxes have that handdrawn touch and old timey aesthetics 😊
Sean does great work on the box art. You can tell that he’s passionate about it.
Great interview.
Thanks for watching👍
Outstanding video !
Thanks for watching Tom👍
Such a great video.
Thanks Carl! Sean is a great guy and deserves a spotlight for his work.
Thank you for video and the information.
Thanks for watching Dale 👍
Awesome video
Thanks again Travis 👍
Nice collection wow
That’s for sure John, I was amazed 👍
what a cool, intelligent video. Thanks
Another great episode 👍
Thank you Ronny 👍
Very cool hobby space, and a great video!! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for tuning in Jason, I appreciate your support.
@@ScaleModelExperiment you’re welcome!!
this guy is a legent.
Incredible!
I’m glad that you enjoyed the video. Sean is now a member of our podcast as well. Check out the live videos on the channel.
extremely awesome video !!
Glad you think so! I appreciate you watching 👍
Very cool builds
Thanks for watching Horton 👍
I love that NATCC Donohue Stratus!!! Always been fond of them. It was my first car.
I like it for 2 reasons: I am a die hard Mopar fan and it’s so unique! I’ve never seen anyone else build it. Thanks for watching 👍
@@ScaleModelExperiment it's definitely inspirational seeing that for me. I have three of the Brookfield collectible Stratus promo cars. One that I plan on painting the same forest green pearl that mine was. I thought about trying replicate one of the NATCC cars I'm glad Sean stated what he used as a donor chassis, that'll help a lot. There was also a PPG livery that looked incredible as well.
@@nismojukerich2994 very cool, do you have the Neon ones too?
@@ScaleModelExperiment I have one of the two door neons and one of the 4dr neons. Unfortunately both are missing the same driver's side mirror. I wish they were missing different sides so I could resin cast new ones lol. The stratus one's aren't the same but they may be close enough.
@nismojukerich2994 I’d love to have a scale SRT4 someday.
Awesome video. I wish he would have gotten into any mistakes or difficult models that he worked on for taking pics for the box. Always just curious when i see the pics on model boxes the story behind the build that looks like perfection on the box. Thank you for videos like these and love your white glue build ups also!
I will most certainly continue with the white glue reviews as I find them fun to make and are valuable to the community.
Nice work you're doing now.We know why the K I t prices have gone up
Haha William, if they were generic white boxes with words on them they wouldn’t sell at all. They need eye catching artwork. Haha
Very nice visit at Sean´s place. 👍. Especially his explanations of his favorite models. Is it possible, that You could do the same with some of Your favorite models ? Looking at Your channel, there seems to be many interesting models in Your stash, the background, 🧐 Kind regards from, Nils in Denmark.
Thanks for watching Nils. I may do that video of my favorite builds. I’ll give you credit for the idea 👍
Oh man, you got to visit Sean's sensationally cool collection, assuming while there for the the Buckeye Classic. I got to see it last year, so inspirational, he's loaded with talent and he's such a nice guy too. I love his pro-touring/restomods. I'm glad he picked the Stratus as his favorite, it's mine too! Now fess up...did you see behind that wooden slatted door? ;^) I know, dumb question but if so I'll let you share :^) Yes, Ohio has quite a reputation for extremely talented modelers...must be lots of building time during the frigid winters LOL
lol, What’s behind the wooden door Sean? I saw his work area and his parts stash… I’ll wonder now what’s hiding behind that wood slat door.
Seriously yes, it was after the buckeye classic, me Steve and Larry went to his place. I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to film there. Take care, and I hope to do a similar video at your house someday.
@@ScaleModelExperiment when I was there Steve, Larry, Eric, and Jeff were there, Ken Hart tagged along too, he rode from Dayton with me since he lives in my sister's neighborhood LOL. We even went to dinner afterward. Fun day!
@zzmx5 what’s behind the door!!! Lol
@@ScaleModelExperiment his workshop and unbuilt kits that definitely suit his style, old and new.
@zzmx5 I did see his workspace and stash of kits very diverse indeed.
Awesome video Cool to to see into a box artists world. Wondering where the diisplay cases are from
Hi Dish, I’m pretty sure his cases are like mine. I get them from Carney plastics in Ohio.
that's an amazing collection. i think i even spotted a fiero in there. looks like the mpc. please tell me I'm right...lol
I’ll let him answer that one Onix 😁
Nice
Thanks for watching Terry 👍
Just wonderful....
You must have an extremely understanding wife! Take good care of her!!
Where did you source your display cases from?
Thanks for sharing...
Steve
I can’t speak for Sean’s wife, but the display cases are from Carney Plastics in Ohio. Thanks for watching 👍
Where does one buy these acrylic cases? are they just individual cases stacked mount on the wall? Great video!!
The cases I believe are from Carney Plastics in Ohio. I have the same kind.
@@ScaleModelExperiment Thank you!
