Having just got an old digital camera, I can now start to add photos of more of my creations. This is a recent one - I based it on the palaces of St. Petersburg, but it is both a railway station and hotel on the upper floors. (URL) hope you like it (...)

(...) Hi Pierre, those trucks are among the very best in the whole net. I really love the details you put into all your models.

(...) I've used the 1x4 arch on each of my 3 apparatus so far. I think it helps add realism at this small scale, in the way it hugs the tyres so well. (...) I agree. This is why I'm working on a series of vehicles. So I can experiment with varies (...) (21 years ago, 20-Jul-03, to lugnet.inst, lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) Spiffy model. Especially the ladder with the nozzle at the top! Also a great use of arches and rear fenders (how I wish that fender came in a split so you could use it on 6 wide trucks) Needs more greebles, though. Even ladder trucks have some (...)

I'm working my way through a series of 4-wide fire apparatus right now. And while this isn't the first one in the series, this is the one I'm most happy with up to this point.

Black Falcon won June 2003's poll to be this month's Minifig Hall of Fame inductee. Black Falcon always did good in the previous polls, but with Blacktron 1 and others out of the way, no one could stop him from winning. Only Futuron and King Kahuna (...)
