Hi Robert
I think I like your BF-109E-big and Harrier best. The Harrier looks
fantastic in the shot from below.

Thanks Chris, the BF109E is by the way not completely finished. I still have to
do the underside of the right wing. I was planning to make a retractable landing
gear on it but i still have to figure that out

Another idea is to make a new sub-gallery: the warbird prototypes, for
planes that just didn’t make it beyond the prototype stage.

I like trying to build prototype planes, those that existed and some that
never made it off the drawing board. You should have a look at Joey Jenkins´
Brickshelf gallery if you haven’t already. He builds fantastic models.

Yeah I’ve seen this gallery before, looks good. Currently I have some rough
design sketches for a MOC of the Dornier Do335 Pfeil but the cockpit design is
giving me some serious trouble so give me some time. Other running projects are
F-14 tomcat (still not finished) and a nearly completed MOC of an B-24 Liberator
(Hull is finished, still working on the wing, I can post some teaser pics if you
want)

I have never really gotten the hang of LDRAW or MLCAD or whatever it is folk
use. I don’t think I have the patience. I would much rather build with
bricks. But I have often looked at LDRAW MOCs for inspiration. Keep them
coming!

The reason why I am ‘building’ in Virtual Reality is that I simply don’t own any
real Lego’s My collection from my children’s years is still lingering on my
parent’s attic somewhere (haven’t been there for years) Besides that, I remember
that as a child I always ran out of bricks and than I had to wait until my
birthday or Sinterklaas........ (Santa Claus for the non-Dutch). Building on the
computer however, always ensures a vast quantity of exactly that bricks you need
By the way, if you want to build one of my MOCs or built something that was
inspired on one. Please go ahead, I would really like to see the result!!! I can
even make some kind of building instruction if you really need one.
