That's right, hehe! :)

At this moment Niigata City has been hit by massive snow falls. UHU's car has been completely buried:

However, this does not stop him from making a derivative version of his cool tower: a Tokyo Tower model which is only half as tall as the big one (33 cm).

This affords some creative thinking because he wants to combine separate pieces and has to come up with simplified versions of the smaller parts. UHU never seizes to amaze us! :)

WOW!!! :surprise::surprise::surprise: I know that Japan gets snow, but to have your car snowed in and can not go anywhere is insane! However, I agree, it does give you more time to work on models!
@uhu02 Thank you for sharing all your WONDERFUL WORK with us! You are an inspiration to us all!!!

That's the norm in Connecticut, but also with Ice. The state was closed Monday because of the 4" sheet of ice covering it. The roads were impassible. You learn to "Hole up".

Indeed! . . .

And . . . Could someone imagine how could be a Uhu's Avalon, the ship from the movie Passengers???
That would make for a very interesting model. I have to say that I had the same thought when I saw the movie as well. ;)
I think that @uhu02 would do a PHENOMENAL JOB on such a project!!!

A small but very welcome update of the project:

UHU02 is finishing the parts sheets, so a test build should commence very soon! :)

The quality of the texture is top-notch (as always ;) ):

I am so looking forward to seeing Mothra's larva "in action"! :)

Folks, please hold your breath. Faster than I realized UHU02 has updated his page, grabbed the scissors and swang into action.

This is gonna be a HUUUUGE update, so please be patient and wait with your comments till I tell you that the update is complete.

Thank you! :)

Alright - (gasp, gasp) - here we go! :)

First UHU printed out the pattern sheets.
