Hi Steve,

Ben postet the link to your gallery at our 1000steine.de newsboard. I just want to add my comments about this great MOC scene. It’s brilliant and I love the use of the new dark red pieces. Building with so limited quantities available is a big challenge. Well done.

The color sheme reminds me of the dark red and yellow diesel engine which is displayed in Windhoek Main Station in Namibia:

Great work, go on ..

Kind regards and 1000grüße Holger
