Joe versus the Volcano

Since it’s totally lacking a description of any kind I can’t say much about Bryce McGlone’s plans for this volcano. But what ever they are (if they are) I feel certain they’re going to be great.
Bryce dropped me an email explaining a bit more about this excellent MOC. It’s actually a collaboration between him […]
