| Before I continue building alternate models of the new designersets I still wanted to build another one of the 'old' 4100 Maximum Wheels designerset. I tried to use as many bricks of the set as I could and this is the result: (URL) (Click the pic to (...) (20 years ago, 19-Jan-05, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.build, lugnet.general, FTX) !!

| Really impressive for a limited parts pallette. Is this an official alternate model? Or just proof that Lego's alternate designers need to work harder? :^) -Stefan- (20 years ago, 19-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, lugnet.general, FTX)

| (...) Amazing work on all your alternate models. Wow! If not full-blown instructions, have you considered doing pics of your model during construction/deconstruction? I know I wouls love to try out some of your designs so I could see them in my (...) (20 years ago, 19-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, lugnet.general, FTX)

| (...) Wow! Looks great! You're too good at this. You take the "What would you make?" thing to the next level. You make alternates that look like they could have been the main model. Tell the truth, does TLC consult with you on the parts selection (...) (20 years ago, 19-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, FTX)

| (...) Hello Nathanael! I'm so glad you posted this pic/link for people to see. I saw it earlier today on Brickshelf and was hoping that it would get the attention it deserves. I'm a big fan of your all of your work, not just this model. I hope when (...) (20 years ago, 20-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, lugnet.general, FTX)

Fabulous work which shows just what Lego is all about - I hope some of the designer set design (...) (20 years ago, 20-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, lugnet.general, FTX)

| (...) Well Stefan, I try to do my best to come up with alternate models my own because often I'm not really impressed by the official ones. So if you say that the LEGO designers need to work harder I won't disagree with that... ;-) Nathanael (20 years ago, 20-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)

| (...) Thanks Thomas, In my opinion my models just show some of the many possiblities what could be made with a designerset. They're mainly to stimulate people to build MOCs, that's probably why LEGO called them designersets. ;-) But if it will (...) (20 years ago, 20-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)

Would be nice ofcourse... :-D But if this would be the case it's not completely fair to (...) (20 years ago, 20-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)

To stick with a limited parts selection is indeed (...) (20 years ago, 20-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)

Especially when building Technic in which there is so many basic stuff, parts can be (...) (20 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)
