In case you weren't already aware of it, the so-called "Adult Fans of Lego" (AFoL) have a pretty remarkable online community. This week, that community has been deeply saddened by the news of the sudden death earlier this month, in an automobile accident, of Tekoa, Washington resident Nate Nielsen, known among his online friends as nnenn. Nate was a father, husband, artist, and a professor specializing in graphic design. Inspired in large part by his relationship with his two sons, he was also one of the most prolific and innovative designers the AFoL community has seen in a long time.

Did you see James May built a house out of it?  Bloody good, too!

yeah I saw that... I still think the train one was the best in that series though.
