Some very interesting comments about Furlow's newest creation in the forum. David77 called it silly and immediately got hammered. Come on ,guys. It's meant to be silly...a characature using preposterous engineering and precambian geography. Where have you been for the last 20 years? Malcolm has always used this style and it's become his trademark, reaching far beyond John Allen and John Olson, his inspiration. As some of you know, the 4x5 Linhoff Camera is his canvas and the dilapdated trains and structures are the colors he paints with. <br /> <br />Having spent a few years working with Malcolm on a variety of RR projects, I can attest to the fact he is, indeed, crazy. When he models the unbelieveable, that is also our reaction...UNBELIEVEABLE! And then we look deep into each photo to find all there is to see.And it's a great journey. <br /> <br />When a poll is taken of the top three most inspirational contributors to the modelrailroading artform, guaranteed, Furlow's on the list. Tony Koester may be a prolific modeler and author but his miles of lichen treescapes will not inspire anyone to create outside the box, not like malcolm has. <br /> <br />Chris Comport <br />
