Graspaps Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Hi, I’m Hans (from Holland) aka Graspaps ( which stands for Grass Dad, my honorary title given by my son&friends whom I join every year to the 3-days metal festival “Graspop” in Belgium. 65, retired and, apart from a lot of other hobbies, I build miniature. Most of my work is sold and I make a lot of things for a museum like the 1/35 model of Anne Frank’s house. I’m still a BIG Thunderbirds fan and made a lot of TB items. You can find a lot of my “work” at https://diggelenhans.wixsite.com/hans-van-diggelen/portfolio. At the moment I’m working on a new version of Tracy Island. Done one before but since I recently started with 3D printing this 2.0 version will be muxh more detailed. I will post pictures of the build in a few days. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter2 Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Your site shows some very accomplished models. Someday I'd like to visit Tracy Island, but my travel agent can't find any details of flights to it or local accommodation. So my plan will have to wait. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
