Hallo Ben! (...) Tja, leider(!) kann ich das nicht sagen, da ich wohl zwischen dem 98. und dem 102. Beitrag keinen Blick warf, und dann erst wieder beim 102. Also müssen wir wohl noch mal so einen Thread aufmachen..... Tschüß Jojo (23 years ago, 13-Jan-03, to lugnet.loc.de)

  Re: What type of LUG marker? (was Re: New Mosaic: Map of the USA)
 
I, for one, wouldn't mind being included in the list of members on a tile. I could see how some people would want their own presence. Given that, I like both Frank's and Lar's ideas. Color codes for tiles and 1x1 rounds would be more effective, (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.sculpture, lugnet.events.brickswest, lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.org)

  Re: New Space MOCs
 
Gotta love your new stuff. The heavy fighter is my favorite, the detail is really amazing. I think it would be best classified as a corvette or patrol boat though. Please build more models like this! Take care, Soren (23 years ago, 12-Jan-03, to lugnet.space)
