More Creeky mutations.

Bob Bruce sends these 4 radical mutations of the Creeky freeby. You’re ALL one upping me. All of you. Don’t stop but please. I hope you are showing this stuff on other forums. People need to see the level of artistry and craft of this community.

VERY nice job on imagination as well as craftsmanship!

The are some VERY talented modelers in the Clever "community", Bob Bruce is certainly one of them. I only regret that my ability doesn't come close. This is a fantastic effort.

Dave, Your building skill is fine. I'd hate to see this become a competition. I always like to think that cardstock models, because of their low cost and reprintability are an opportunity to learn and build skills. I've seen it happen where an individual will take off and start designing their own models.
We do have a lot of expert builders here and they are always ready to share ideas and tips. I learn from them constantly when they re design my kits in ways I never dreamed of. Some times its a hit to my own vanity to realize that my customers are far better modelers than I am but I am also proud that My work has helped launch such great work. I try to post examples of everyones work. just yesterday I received 4 separate groups of pix. I have to space them out over several days so pix don't get immediately buried and pushed off the front page. And occasionally pix get lost in the shuffle.
We have become a community.
This is Thom by the way

Thom, thanks for the kudos. I didn't mean to launch a competition. When I started in model railroading (about 40 years ago) I did some scratch- building, but now find that lack of time and money prohibit much laser kit building, so I really appreciate your designs which are affordable and build into great looking models. I still haven't gotten into the swing of "bashing" your kits which is why I like to see pics like those of Bob's.

Best regards,
Dave (RdgNgineer) Rarig
