*silence, with gaping jaw*
Wow, a lotta stuff here. I'll save you the long version, which
unfortunately includes a lot of gibbering -- here's the short version:
Your semis -- The mirrors are really very clever. As are the little steps
under the cab doors. Oh, and the swing-down engine cover. Oh, and the
trailer hitches -- simple and sweet.
Beechcraft Bonanza -- That tail is the real star of this model. It's flush
against the body, and I love how it's locked into that angle so it won't
droop with time.
Van and Sailboat -- Sailboat. I want one. *gibber* (Whoops, sorry about
that.) The keel and rudder are well-done.
Garbage truck -- I *really* like this one. The compactor is brilliant.
City bus -- At first I couldn't figure out how you hinged your doors! Then
it came to me... hee hee hee hee hee! Score!
Black Truck -- Makes me want to be a man out on the road, crunching gears
and hauling freight. Love the reefer.
Summary -- I love the fact that your models have this clean no-nonsense feel
to them; using ordinary pieces to make part arrangements that should be
obvious, obvious. In short, this mecha- and space-head has explcitly put
+.town* into his skip-filter (regrettable that it wasn't there before),
thanks to seeing your MOCs. I don't think I normally fawn this much over
MOCs, but this is the second .town post this week that's blown me away. I
hope to see more! :-,
Cheers,

| I've built a number of models recently that haven't shown up on the web until now. This is the first batch. Most of these are vehicles I created for the BayLUG town vehicle contest in June.
