In the last few weeks I have been expanding my brickshelf folder. perhaps you've seen some of my MOCs on brickshelf's "recent" pages. If not, I would like to invite you to visit: (URL) examples: A black F-14D Super Tomcat (scale 1/36) (URL) Kenworth (...) (20 years ago, 17-May-05, to lugnet.announce.moc) !!

(...) Well, I'll go ahead and say something - I really like your models! Lugnet often seems to prefer original creations, but I've always enjoyed modeling real-life vehicles like you've done, and done very well. You've quietly used a lot of advanced (...) (20 years ago, 18-May-05, to lugnet.town)

(...) Thanks for the comments. That my MOCs would look good in Legoland is a major compliment. One of my inspirations were the pictures in the Ultimate LEGO book, and apparently that shows. I admire people for the creativity and often humour that (...) (20 years ago, 18-May-05, to lugnet.town)

(...) through most of the other galleries. I will have to check those in more detail later- everything in there is so gorgeous that I can't even start to pick a favorite. I was hoping to find an F4 Phantom or a Corvair, but no go. While I have no (...) (20 years ago, 18-May-05, to lugnet.town)

(...) Ralph, These are great, it's wonderful to see how well you can model those vehicles without using too many of the newer pieces, some excellent SNOT work. I really liked the motorcycles, it's hard to capture such detail in a small size. Thanks, (...) (20 years ago, 19-May-05, to lugnet.town)

(...) A Chevy Corvair would indeed be nice. It has a very uncluttered and sleek look, but I'm not sure whether I could get a LEGO version to look sleek enough. I used to have an F-4 Phantom, a US Navy F-4S. I demolished it about five years ago in (...) (20 years ago, 19-May-05, to lugnet.town)

(...) George, Glad to see that you like them. Those motorcycles are a lot of fun to build. They don't take too many pieces and the smallish scale forces me to get creative in using them. I am the most pleased with the police bike. I was able to give (...) (20 years ago, 19-May-05, to lugnet.town)

(...) Thank you for the compliments. To answer your question: the models are static, though I tend to incorporate some working features. For instance, the wrecker's crane can be raised by turning a little wheel hidden behind a door and the (...) (20 years ago, 19-May-05, to lugnet.town)

Hey, Nice stuff! It is the school bus that really catches my eye (all though all the MOCs are great...) maybe that says something about me? : ) Thanks for sharing and God Bless, Nathan (20 years ago, 20-May-05, to lugnet.town)

(...) Thank you for your compliments. Of course I like some of my MOCs better than others. I don't think anybody is as critical of my MOCs as I am myself. I am not quite content with some of my cars and the Winnebago, for instance, but the schoolbus (...) (19 years ago, 24-May-05, to lugnet.town)
