Customiser: Maulana RL

Country: Semarang, Indonesia

We came across Diecast Art Project's channel on Instagram and found it captivating. The owner of the channel calls himself, Maulana RL.

Maulana’s passion for diecast customisation goes beyond simple modifications—his focus is on hyper-realistic detailing which is precisely the reason we stayed on the channel for some time. The Nissan Silvia S13 Drift Concept with V8 Engine Swap is just one of many Custom Hot Wheels example.

Whether it’s authentic rust effects, chipped paint, or worn-out interiors, his builds tell a story of time and experience.

Bringing Diecast to a Whole New Level

One of his standout creations is a beautifully weathered Toyota Land Cruiser, showcasing realistic rusting, aged paintwork, and finely crafted details. To be honest though, all his builds exemplify his dedication to craftsmanship and authenticity, making it look like a real-life off-roader that's endured years of adventure.

With a deep appreciation for realism and artistry, Diecast Art Project continues to push boundaries in custom diecast craftsmanship, proving that even small-scale cars can tell big stories.

What started as a passion project quickly gained traction, and now, Maulana offers his custom creations for sale. Collectors and diecast enthusiasts looking for highly detailed, realistic builds can purchase directly from him through his Instagram (@diecast_art_project) or Facebook page (Maulana RL). Each piece is meticulously crafted, making them exclusive, one-of-a-kind diecast customs for diecast collectors.

His attention to texture and colour blending gives his customs an almost lifelike appearance, making each piece truly one-of-a-kind.
