Alternate #5 of Creator set 5867: Offroader. The classic boxy style of a Jeep, no nonsense, purely functional, without any unnecessary features. So no windows, no doors, no roof, just a rollbar, a winch and some spotlights for optimal visibility. Off roading in its purest sense, like it’s meant to be.

My 1st alternate from Creator set 5867: Tractor truck. Exploring the possibilities and limitations of this set my first try turned out into this truck with a big cabin, which can be tilted, opening doors and fifth wheel. I thought this was the best I could do with this set. Never have been so wrong, […]
1st alternate of set 6745: a P-38 inspired plane. Built for Joe Meno’s Brickjournal magazine. Early 2009 I was contacted by Joe Meno with the request develop an alternate for BrickJournal magazine out of 6745. Both taking a litte time to develop the model and to make it into the magazine resulted that the model first […]
Alternate #9 of Creator set 5867: Multi-purpose Truck. Inspired by the official Technic Unimog 8110, I decided to try to build a similar vehicle from set 5867. Trucks like this are well known for their versatility. All kind of attachments can be added, which makes these kind of vehicles suitable for pretty much any type […]
This Gran Tourer is alternate #10 of Creator set 5867. Different than most other iconic vehicles, GT cars are a bit different. Instead of just a few characteristic elements, with GT’s it’s about the overall package. Sleek lines, long bonnet for housing a big engine, and sporty aesthetics are just a few of the elements […]
This pick-up wrecker truck is alternate #11 of Creator set 5867. For a while I wanted to create a pick-up truck with a flatback on the rear. To make it look more interesting a towing device was added, turning it into a wrecker instead. Some livery lines were included as well to give it a […]
This forklift is my 18th alternate from Creator set 5867. This is what happens when a brain starts to go creative; instead of some kind of sportscar you end up with a forklift. Apparently it just had to go like that, because once I moved toward the idea of a forklift, every element I added […]
This vintage car is my 17th alternate model built from Creator set 5867 Super Speedster. Can we squeeze out more alternates from this versatile set? Well, here’s another one; a vintage car, heavily inspired by the Morgan. Characteristics are long nose and curved rear end.
Alternate 20 of set 5867. What would 8292 look like if you only have set 5867 to work with. The colours that come in the set are excellent for making some kind of fire and rescue truck. However the problem is that there is a lot of surface to cover, which made me very doubtful […]
Scrat the squirrel from Ice Age, built exclusively with parts from Designer set 4884. When mentioning Ice Age, the character that most people seem to remember directly is this cute little Squirrel Scrat. Always looking for those precious acorns, which are more like unicorns to him; (almost) impossible to get hold of. My main focus […]
