(...) SNIP (...) Hey Nathanael!!! Holy cow, another awesome alternate! I'm blown away... yet again. I guess I'm going to need to start pestering you for building instructions and/or "exploded-view" pictures again so I can build it myself ;-) -Paul (16 years ago, 28-May-08, to lugnet.build, FTX)

(...) Thanks Paul! No surprise to see a reaction from you. Nice to hear you like it, although I'm not completely satisfied with it myself. I think that after the almost 3 years that I worked for the LEGO company, my quality standards went up... Oh (...) (16 years ago, 28-May-08, to lugnet.build, FTX)

(...) Thanks Anders. Even though it's not up to LEGO standards, in my opinion the model is holding together fairly well. Of course there are some weaker spots here and there, but that's in almost every model. Because the model is slightly bigger (...) (16 years ago, 29-May-08, to lugnet.build)

(...) It looks great in the pictures. I guess the creator of a work is often its harshest critic. I'm getting the feeling from things you've wrote that maybe you aren't working for LEGO anymore (?) (...) If it's no trouble, I'd be interested in a (...) (16 years ago, 29-May-08, to lugnet.modelteam, FTX)

(...) I guess you are right with both. As the creator I know all the flaws of the model. It's probably not as bad as it sounds and I have to say that the pictures came out better than expected. And indeed I'm not working at LEGO anymore. A new (...) (16 years ago, 29-May-08, to lugnet.modelteam, FTX)

(...) I'm in Eskilstuna (~1 hour from Stockholm). You're welcome to ping me if you want to visit! You're also welcome to lugnet.loc.se - it's not very active for the moment, but there is talk about a Lego meet sometime after the summer. You would (...) (16 years ago, 29-May-08, to lugnet.build)
