604 - Shell Service Car

I finally managed to make the little logo and add it to car and the minifig.

600 - Police Car

One of the first miniland sets that must have owned... a little practical car.

6650 - Fire and Rescue Van

If only I can figure out one day how to make the hose in POV...

6611 - Fire Chief's Car

Lovely little car that every town needs.

6367 - Semi Truck

Not quite sure why they call it a semi truck, but it looks great I think. Again a model we never had and made from the peeron description. The stickers were made in Inkscape from originals I got from Sofie.

6613 - Telephone Booth

And here is the phone booth with the correct minifig!!!

6362 - Post Office

I started on the model many years ago and last year I made the Post Office logo in Inkscape. This week I added the sign on the post boxes them selves. It is still considered WIP as the little van still needs its stickers. And the minifig of course...

Again, another classic set, as other people have pointed out who review this set: every Lego town needs a post office!!!

6613 - Telephone Booth

Suddenly fell the urge again to make a few updates to some Lego pics... I have mostly worked on 6263, and then I thought I could quickly upload this as well. But it took over 9 hours to render. All that remains is a the little man of course.

Anyway here it is:

6653 - Highway Maintenance Truck

Back again after half a year of nothing... But I wanted to share this one with you. Again, I think we had two of these. Lovely little set. I made the stickers years ago.

6693 - Refuse Collection Truck

This is a model we never had as kids. Either it was released after we stopped playing or we didn't have any garbage in our Lego town... ;)

I build it from instructions at peeron and the recycle logo I made recently with Inkscape from a real brick with the logo that I got recently with all of Sofie's old Lego.



All that is needed is adding the little men... but that means doing more stickers again... maybe one day.

6657 - Fire Patrol Copter

And here is the latest finished render. Again I think we had two of these. I think it is quite a nice little set and one of the first where I played with Illustrator to make the stickers, now I use Inkscape to make them and hopefully I can show you some results soon of that.

Anyway... enough talk here it comes:


And just to mention it, the hose was made with Chris Colefax's spline macro which you can find here. A very good tool, although one might be able to make it with native POV splines now... I haven't tried that (yet).

ps. I am not quite sure why I made two guys here... the set only comes with one I think.

6681 - Police Van

And here is a picture I started working on last century ;)

I know that is a long time ago... But here it is:


I somehow seem to think that of this one we had two as well as kids... again one for my brother and one for me. Seems to be a way to keep children happy I guess.
