Stunning B-model Nathanael and just B.O.W said, way better than the Aston A-model!

Dear friends, I am proud that Damen Shipyard ask me again to stand in their Magazine with a nice interview about me as a LEGO builder. https://magazine.damen.com/heritage-culture/building-bricks-meeting-a-lego-shipbuilder/

Thanks friends for the kind words. Thanks buddy, You know as shipper son, how i must feel to stand again in one of the biggest shipyard at their magazine. This is the best promotion for my designs and builds.

We live above my company. Almost. Ha,ha it's almost already to small. That's the reason to make extra 80 square meters free for next year.

Because i started this topic years ago, my update how my place is stil growing and here my update story. last month i make extra building space in my office and it was already quit to small with the project now running. I have now 5 different building tables and use also the old space . Here the old space and then the upgrade from 3 years ago to now. So i can now work at 5 projects at the same time. For next year i planning to make a extra 80 square meters free at my office, to work on extra projects up till 14 meters long, when needed. Already i now need is bigger drawings systems. and the old drawings system is only for smal parts, but the bigger drawing systems are complete full and must have buy extra drawing meters. So my building cave is only growing.? So from old, newer, newest and the oldest space is the same till now, only the models are different. 121_2184 by VFracingteam, on Flickr 001 by VFracingteam, on Flickr IMG_7693 by VFracingteam, on Flickr IMG_7688 by VFracingteam, on Flickr IMG_7689 by VFracingteam, on Flickr

I never left the technical side of building, but got banned to the scale model forum by Jim and Milan and maybe you missed some technic construction kits i deliver. Some projects i did are not posted here at EB, but i don't build only ships these days, Also trucks, houses and displays. The most one of models of ships have now complete lightning systems(made by myself) S-bricks, working functions and ext,ext. Still i miss to post my models at the technic forum and the scale modelling forum is quit dead.

Many thanks for the kind words.

Thanks Clive. I had some influence on the article Igor and have seen the pre text infront for the printed magazine, but the web version came out some different and did't know that they were use links to only the originals and not also the brick build versions. They got the pictures from that.

Stunning creation again Lucio. I always love Dakar trucks and for this size and weight it is still preform well.

Only with a cut away in half house, you can see the basement and have started with the basement and than raise up the garden and driveway. With a full closed house and garden with driveway you will never seen the basement. Maybe this will help from a full open house i have build sometime ago .

SuperB review and you pictures are stunning.

Mind blowing good and much better than the official A and B model.

Love it in real bricks.

Great to see you building one of the most best set ever and hope you will have fun the hole build of here.

Looks stunning so far Michael.

Here for me is also nothing to complain and is a superB cabin.

Rebuilt only the Hulett in 1 to 40 ore not use any figs in that area.

Thanks friends for the great comments. The other main V16 engine is also build and now building the 3 V8 for the electric Hybrid system. IMG_7613 by VFracingteam, on Flickr IMG_7614 by VFracingteam, on Flickr IMG_7615 by VFracingteam, on Flickr

Very nice build for your Grandchildren and fun for them for play with and even for you a easy build.

Thanks for the kind words and the reason that there is no interieur light on the wheelhouse is, that inside are so many wires from al the lights above now not seeing from the outside.

After a repeat order from Royal IHC to deliver a new batch for the Bever dredger. I finaly got the time to go on the Tug boat Telstar from Iskes Towage and build one of the two main engine is scale 1 to 40 (minifig scale) and was a hell of a job to build it in this scale a give it just enough details. The two main engines are V16 Mitsubishi S16R2-T2MPTAW. All the engines onboard Iskes his ships are blue, with a lot of bling. So i have let make real chromed bricks to make it real. First a picture from one of the real V16 and my version for his model. 016 by VFracingteam, on Flickr IMG_7604 by VFracingteam, on Flickr IMG_7606 by VFracingteam, on Flickr IMG_7607 by VFracingteam, on Flickr

From your first picture, i think your 8x8 Crawler topic don't fit the Scale Modeling Forum. You can ask the moderators where you can post it the best.

Just like M_longer said, please start a topic with some pictures and then maybe we can help you.

Wow André, Absolute stunning, the size, level of detail and colours are spot on. You can put it next to BricksonWheels his trains.

From a technical side very good, but why cut al that baseplates for the floor and background.
