Texbrick Demag CC5800 Written by TJ on January 23rd, 2014 The big crane project that I’ve had going for years now is a 1:17 scale model of a Demag CC5800. I’ve slowly worked on this beast over a period of 2 years or more, but I’ve yet to finish it. A lot of the work has been to procure the massive amount of parts needed. To date I’ve finished the turntable, one crawler, and the base frame of the superstructure. I hate new year’s resolutions, but I am going to push myself to get this project done this year. The crawler design was one of the challenges, but I think I’ve got a working design now. Avery Family Interview Written by TJ on September 10th, 2013 A few months ago we were interviewed by a local radio station.

Certains engins volent seulement dans l’atmosphère planétaires, d’autres uniquement dans le vide de l’espace, parfois les deux. Les Speeders même si ils ne touchent pas le sol ne sont pas à proprement parler des aéronefs. TIEs : TIE Advanced (Mini : 4484) TIE Bomber (System 4479 [1]) TIE Fighter (System : 7146,7150,7152,7262,7263 Mini : 3219) TIE Interceptor (UCS [2] : 7181 Mini : 6965) 4 TIEs différents, qui pour les novices se ressemblent plus ou moins.

dennis bosman Scale models of LEGO Welcome on my website! Since the mid nineties I mainly build scale models of trucks. During that days people get familiar with my work via Truckstar Magazine in which my models were shown quite often. After some time you're starting to put more detail in each new model and you're looking for new challenges. It definitely isn't production work; it takes about roughly six months before a model comes to life. NEW: "The Art of LEGO Scale Modeling" And that resulted in a nice book: "The Art of LEGO Scale Modeling". Were it all started This hobby started years ago when I got into the transport world via my father's job. From the nineties I started to build models on a larger scale: 1:13. A few times a year I show my LEGO models to the visitors during several events togehter with collegue modellers. Enjoy watching! Dennis Bosman

Incredible LEGO Creations | Super Tight Stuff As a child I loved LEGOs and would often spend hours in my basement working on castles or other projects that could stretch on for weeks. I was always proud of my creations, but seeing all of these makes me feel like mine were pretty lame. There are six that warrant descriptions, and the rest are included in a gallery at the end. 1.

neil everett The Caterham Seven is a classic British sports car. It is based around the original design of the Lotus Seven, which ended production many years ago. Caterham have made modifications to the design over the years, but it remains closely related to the original Lotus design. Colin Chapman, the late founder of Lotus Cars, believed stongly in the principle of keeping his cars as light and as simple as possible. The Caterham 7 lends itself very well to being modelled in Lego. However, certain features do cause problems for the Lego replica. I was greatly assisted in the construction of the model by my two recent Lego purchases, my first new Lego models in around ten years. Further details of the Caterham model can be found using the navigation bar at the foot of the page.
