I remember first meeting you and you were so modest about the things you build. What I see is a great builder! These are no exception! Great work, I liked seeing them, I am sure they will look great set up at the NMRA 2007. - Eric (18 years ago, 27-Mar-07, to lugnet.town)

(...) Tim, This is great! I studied in Moscow for a few months in 1987 and have many memories of the transport-- I particularly like your subway cars. To complete the street scene I suggest adding a long line of shopping-bag-carrying minifigs (...) (18 years ago, 27-Mar-07, to lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) Hi Andreas, Thanks I have most of the stuff in CAD so if you'd like to render it I'll be happy to assemble it for you ;) Your render style would suit it much more than mine would... of course it might take a while to render :) Tim (18 years ago, 26-Mar-07, to lugnet.town, FTX)

Very eye catching... And it is rare I comment on anything train related. I really like the sleek 'realness' of this thing. God Bless, Nathan (URL) (18 years ago, 26-Mar-07, to lugnet.town, FTX)

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)
