Is this going to be published in the magazine? Or anywhere? I’d like to be able to thumb through pics of them.
Yes, many of these will get published in the upcoming FAAM No. 27, Summer 2020!
What an amazing array of designs for these hard times! Thank you for posing the challenge and for posting the designs.
