I agree; Bill's creations are even more spectacular in person. Those
pics were taken by John Gerlach at our (GMLTC) meeting last week using
his new digital camera. Although not a new MOC (I think Bill built it
last fall), this might be its first appearance on the web. Bill is
currently building a really nice and really *big* fire station to house
it (with Conan's bricks, so you know it will have all of the bells and
whistles;)
Another fabulous emergency vehicle and big-vehicle-in-general builder is
fellow GMLTCer and GMLUGer Paul Foster ( http://www.gmlug.org/foster/ )
Although please note, Bram-- these guys are 6 wide builders, not puny,
girlie-man 4 wide "minifig-scale" stuff;-)
