  1. Its awesome, although on this scale i could have had even more detail. But its superb work!
  2. I rarely build cars, but a tricked out Cadillac Fleetwood Le Cabriolet lowrider in 1/10 scale had been on my wishlist for a while. After some extensive research on lowrider technicalities and Cadillac 1980s frame design, I started work. This model is constructed out of 100% genuine Lego bricks; many retro-chromed with plating on plastics true chrome technology…. so actual true metal layers there. The gold parts however are sprayed. For the first time I used UV printing technology to apply a mural directly on the bricks on the trunk lid. The only non-Lego parts are some wires and the ‘Rollerz’ club logo, which is lasercut from Acrylic. All in all a lot of new technology to support this build. Hope you like it!

  3. Dirk did a good job on this one, good review as well.
  4. About 10.000 chromed ones cant live without them ...
  5. Agree with the above. Lame is the keyword here. Make something yourself, and value the work a bit more. Great truck by the way! Very cool design, and indeed looks like a Mercedes.
  6. Well thats a pleasant new arrival. This is a top-notch piece of work. Although new here, you must be a quite experienced builder, judging from your work. Its not a rookie thing for sure!
  7. Very cool! Actually working on a lowrider myself, the technical side of this is highly impressive.
  8. Welcome to our community! You did a good job on this one, combining looks and technics. Keep it going!
  9. Thats a very good Technic build. Great job!
  10. Now thats something worth extra attention. I am not the biggest Technic fan, but this is awesome work. Thumbs up!
  11. Thnx all! About the frame, yes it is. This frame has one advantage: it is chromeplated which tightens tolerances and makes it a bit stiffer.
  12. I have a big passion for customized cars and bikes. I especially love the Cali style lowriders, as featured by this model because of the awesome colors and extreme customation. This Harley Davidson Road King,scaled 1:10 is built out of genuine LEGO bricks, in sand and dark green color, completed with many chromed and gold plated bricks. Models like this and many others like cars, planes and trains will be featured in the forthcoming Nostarch book: The Art of Lego Scale Modeling, to be released this summer, written by myself and Dennis Bosman (Legotrucks). You can see a preview here: www.nostarch.com/legoscalemodeling For this Harley Davidson I teamed up with Auri from Bricklinks Chrome Block City (www.bricklink.com/store.asp?p=Aurimax) to combine gold and chromed plated parts into something really customized.
