Hi all,

Again a new model from my side. Allthough I built this model somewhere at the end of 2005 I now add it to my website. Taking pictures of models always take more time than expected and I also wanted an extra tractor to carry. Yes, it’s an old fashioned towing truck equiped with a Holmes 750. It’s based on a bonneted Scania 141 from the late 70s.

You can read all about it on my website: www.dennisbosman.nl

Any questions or comments are always welcome.

Best regards

Dennis Bosman

(for Lino...) Model Vehicle Builders Rejoice!

My name is Lino (AtomicBuilder on Brickshelf) and I’m pleased to announce that I am the Coordinator for a new theme at NWBrickCon called ModelTeam Motors. If you are inclined to build realistic looking, larger-than-minifig scale vehicles that resemble the Model Team sets of yore, then this is the category for you.

Here is an old Model Team set…

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=1485184

Here are a few samples of MOCs that I have done that fit within this category.

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=248180

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=261915

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=180240

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=218105

Just because I specialize in retro hot rods, bikes, and customs doesn’t mean you have to. All vehicles are welcome within this category, whether they be retro or modern, so long as they are larger than minifig scale and have that model team look. Also, this category is not limited to just road vehicles, so if you have that bi-plane, speedboat, or rider mower you are just itching to build, then have it done by Brickcon in October and it will be proudly displayed within this category.

One key note is Technic vehicles (that look like Technic vehicles) still remain in their own category. They work phenomenally but do not have a realistic model team look. Sure you can have what looks like a Chevy big block engine under the hood but it doesn’t have to actually work like one in order to fit in this theme.

So bring those jaw-dropping cool model vehicles to NWBrickcon. Let me know you are doing so by emailing me at linotopia@hotmail.com (by Oct. 4th please) so that I can ensure room for your MOCs.

NWBrickCon is an annual Lego convention and exposition in the Seattle Area. NWBrickCon 2007 will be October 5, 6, and 7 at the Seattle Center Pavilion. For more information, visit http://www.nwbrickcon.org

   ... Any chance of an ldraw file? ...

Yes, I sent you an email (adress as seen here on LUGNET) and added it also to the BS-folder of the model. For anyone, who will have a look at it:
  1. it is not meant for an instruction, so the submodels and steps seem to be a little stupid sometimes.
  2. the pink parts are dull silver in the real model.
  3. I use an old unofficial version of the 1x1x1/3-slope (50746), which might have a wrong direction.
Thank you for your comment

Andreas

That is pretty sweet, when I saw the thumbnail my first though was “that isn’t a photo?” :)

Now it just needs a couple of anthropomorphic cats in it, a case of moonshine in the back, and it could be featured in Lackadaisy (prohibition era webcomic).

It has 643 pieces and a (good) working steering. For the pictures, I have used flickr to see, how it works and if I understand the “linking”.

This is the corresponding flickr folder with some additional pictures: http://www.flickr.com/photos/10098915@N07/sets/72157600854980688/

Or an alternate folder on 1000steine: http://festum.de/1000steine/myimages/album29

Thanks Andreas

Very nice! The front grill is one of the aspects that stands out to me. Very well done! Nicely colored as well.

Best,

Jonathan
