I'd have to agree with you on the color scheme, but so many of my vehicles are patchwork colors (thanks to the fact that I don't always dig into the LEGO storage cabinet) that I decided to take a que from your building tips regarding color.

Thanks go to Colin for (...) (24 years ago, 15-Mar-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)

randy- thanks for the input, glad you liked the models. yeah, the whole sagging joints issue is a tough one. the technic black "friction pins" i've noticed come in two "strengths"- look closely at them and you'll see- some have "ribs" that run the (...)

  Re: My first Mech
