Sorry I missed this. I guess that is a big compliment! Thnx

Everybody seems to have a different feeling about this. My work has often been copied, and I understand Pauls point. For myself I always keep in mind that it is "just" hobby. I dont mind that people use my work as inspiration, on the contrary, I feel complimented by that. But I also know it can be frustrating that people use your designs and then pretend to have created it themselves.

Amen to that, I sometimes see good solutions or geometries in a creation, even when they are built in totally different subjects than my work. I implement them as well, but that, to me, is more inspiration then stealing a design. Only this week I saw a Harley Davidson here on this forum, that was even blogged at TLCB as something original, that was a complete ripp-off of my designs. I think it is a compliment that people do so, but then dont state it was such a tough job designing it yourself! Like Paul, I am also challenged by this to take the extra mile on new creations.

Scale modeling is rapidly growing in popularity. Sometimes Technic and Scale models can look miles apart and other times they make true hybrids. For me its not the point. I enjoy the good Technic builds as well, and I think many of the builders here on this forum section know eachother quite well (some also in real life) and enjoy everything presented here regardless the style definition. I like cars, trucks and other machinery... and I like Lego, that makes this forum the ideal place to see what other builders create in their own style.

My latest Harley Davidson model: a Street Glide custom. Like my other Harley's I made it in scale: 1/10, and out of genuine Lego. Some parts are aftermarket custom parts (based on Lego), like the chrome-gold wheels and engine parts. Others are chrome plated. Also added some custom brake and shifter cables. This bike also has a full lightset, including battery, housed in the sidebags. Main colors: Dark Red an Tan A big thanks to Rob at <a href="http://www.brickstuff.com" rel="nofollow">www.brickstuff.com</a> for supporting me with his Lego lighting systems! Also thnx to Auri at chromeblock city for his support on this project! Hope you like it! Come check it out at Legoworld, Utrecht (NL)
