(...) Todd, Incredible job! I especially liked the anime image you did and I really wish you had more time to give us a story in that format.

(...) neat landing gear, etc. :-, Way awesome, makes me want to build one. The manga-style art in the final panel just blew my socks off. I would love to see more that too. Cheers, - jsproat (23 years ago, 4-May-01, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.space)

		Re: Sighthound Recon: MOC for non-violent space contest
Excellent job Todd! I love the fold-down door and the interior. This model definitely proves that size does not matter when it comes to building cool LEGO spaceships. BTW are you graphics designer, or an artist, 'cause those schematics, that logo, (...) (23 years ago, 4-May-01, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.space)

(...) I think it's fantastic! But I have a question: I've been staring at that animation for 30 minutes know and I still can't figure out how that amazing hatch works! I see that at the bottom of the door there are 1x1 technic beams which attach to (...) (23 years ago, 5-May-01, to lugnet.space)

		Re: Sighthound Recon: MOC for non-violent space contest
(...) One of the nicest presentations of a model I've seen in a while. Lots of work obviously went into the logos and such, too. The crew byplay did in fact make me go "huh"! Cute model too, it clearly lets the viewer know its purpose, and that (...) (23 years ago, 6-May-01, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.space)
