    I been a fan of David since he started repainting and kitbashing GP35s. He is the one who got me started on super detailing my engines. His kitbashing is simply amazing. I have one of his GP40, and it looks like it came out of a mold. Lets see some of his work. Jurg, post pictures of Davis's works, and take some close ups.

    I never know Dave made a D&RGW dyno car! All you now need is a set of Hydros to pull it!

    I got to see lots of David's models in Anaheim last month. His work is so much finer in person, and he is a great guy too! Congratulations David! :D

    Dave and Rob were sitting behind me at the NTS show and all I was hearing were ooh's ahhh's and I used to turn around and do the same, they were also bartering things like crazy, I was drooling over the things Dave had got. I wish he'll get into steams too.

    Hi John,
    can not agree with your statement. He is NOT the Z Scale Modeler of the month, HE'S THE BEST OF ALL TIMES! :)
