Hello.

Hmmmmm, I'm impressed. A great work, Sean !

Construction of the diagonal-color ''hood''
http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/seankenney/Cars/VW-Microbus/210.jpg

This hood is an impressive nice work !
I also remember Gianluca's Citroen-Van.

Those ideas are so brilliant !!

I always feel so sad to see you completely ignore minifig
and door parts, B-)
But I can't stop expressing my admiration for V-hood design,
this time.

Okay, now I will try to build your VW-Van hosting my minifigs
....

Thank you showing great design !

Regards

I usually need to avoid the pre-fab door parts and other things because
they're often a little too big for my designs.  Most of the things I have
been building lately have been "Not Quite Minifig" scale (NQMF?) :) They
look OK with a Minifig standing next to them, but in no way could ever
accomodate a real minifig.  My whole city (work in progress, photos coming
eventually) is in this Not Quite Minifig scale, and I've had to come up with
creative ways of making doors, windows, etc.  So naturally, the cars would
follow along with the same idea.

But I can't stop expressing my admiration for V-hood design, this time.

Awesome!  I'd love to see it!  If you need any more details about how I did
the hood, let me know and I can show you more.
