This is a prototype of a chassis for a new Technic Supercar. Work in progress… The last few Technic cars that I built all had the engine in the front. However they could not be considered real supercars because those are mid engined. Besides putting the engine in the middle, the other objective for this […]

This Sports Utility Vehicle is an alternative model of Creator set 5867 Super Speedster. The model features opening doors and a roof rack. SUV’s are a mix between station wagons and off-roaders. Nowadays a lot of spin-offs are on the market better known as cross-overs or CUV’s. The main challenge with this model was the […]
A classic American car from Creator set 5867 Super Speedster. Sometimes you design a model, but always have this feeling that it just isn’t quite right and that it could be done better. That was the case with the earlier Classic Car from this set. It used some tricky techniques, but also had some weak […]
An alternate from Creator set 5867 Super Speedster, inspired by Rolls-Royce and Bentley. After so many other alternates already made from this set, it becomes increasingly more difficult to come up with iconic and recognizable models. This time it turned out in a classy saloon, based on the luxurious limousines from highly exclusive brands only […]
This endurance racer is my 2nd alternative from the 31006 Highway Speedster set. Inspired by the 24h of Le Mans, the idea was to make a fast, slick looking driving machine.

The low window, massve grill, and racing livery lines should contribute to the model’s agressive and dynamic look. Due to the size, much of the surface is covered with long plates attached […]
A pick-up alternate of Creator set 31007 Power Mech. One of the official models from this set is already a pick-up truck, but it lacked the muscular feel of a real truck. So I decided to redesign the model, beefing it up and adding some extra features. Now it has a crane on the back […]
