  Re: Blue Express passenger train with a cool front (?)
 
(...) I think it is a fantastic use of the 4-wide cockpit window element. Very cool how you integrated the sloping nose around 45 degree slopes and inverse slopes. Well done. Your metrostation and white/black metro train look good, too. Thanks for (...) (22 years ago, 6-Jan-03, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Glut fixes and Offscreen Rendering
 
(...) According to this page they've made quite a few GLUT fixes. (URL) not sure what effect they'll have, if any.

  Re: One last HoverBike for you comic fans
 
(...) If Jamie's coming to Brickswest, you may just get your wish. I figure my turbocycles are small enough that I ought to actually be able to bring them with me. Although I suppose I ought to book the hotel, buy airfare, and register first, eh? (...) (22 years ago, 6-Jan-03, to lugnet.space)

  MicroPod MOC
 
OK, I saw the MiniPod. Great work, Geordan! I haven't done Pods before because I didn't have any of the large radar dishes. But ... the MiniPod fired me up to try it even smaller! (: Not sure I succeeded in that, but I sure had fun building it! This (...) (22 years ago, 6-Jan-03, to lugnet.space)
 
  Re: MOC: Starship Cygnus
