Hi Tim, very nice diorama! To be honest, I have expected something different when I read the title (a virtual version of moscow, of course - for which I am now waiting month and years...:-) ) It looks like a capital so crowded and also it reminds me (...)

I love the doubled arches on the subway platform. (...) (18 years ago, 26-Mar-07, to lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) You just get better with every street. The sand red building works really well, combined with (medium, Mearsk?) blue it gives a really subduded colour balance. I like the use of the car grills on the black shop front too. Tim (18 years ago, 26-Mar-07, to lugnet.town)

There's so much to love in this MOC. The SNOT 1X2 plate window overhangs, the curved and layered for depth 1X1 rounds in the doorway, the 1X2 trans brick windows... I love it all! David "Fuzzy" Gregory (18 years ago, 25-Mar-07, to lugnet.town, FTX)
