Yes, I know, double posting yada yada. :D Well partially to bump the first post, but also, I've put up some vids, for people who don't have Homeworld but want to see what it looks like when Lego ships are able to blow things up (no "pshoo pshoo" (...) (20 years ago, 18-Aug-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) I've seen the white "Plastruct" tubing at model railway shows and in hobby shops, but it costs 35p for about 12", which is too short and too expensive (considering my 5.5p/piece average Lego price, including railway stuff), even when bought in (...)

(...) I would agree. I was VERY disappointed at the pelting Richie got. But then again, I know that Richie is a great pirate builder and was reminded here. As a result, I asked him to write up an article on his ships in BrickJournal. Because he's a (...) (20 years ago, 18-Aug-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.people, lugnet.off-topic.debate)

This is my list of friends who I'd like to thank for making my trip to BrickFest a joy again this year. This is not a complete list and there are no favorites.

(...) Beat, great work, you entered "trains" with a splash. You also picked an engine I really like, the F3/F7s. I'm reworking the design for the Super Cheif, and hope to post it soon. Adding detail and a recolor as well. Mat (20 years ago, 18-Aug-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

That's a trip! The um, corridor moves, that took me a sec...um, several. The over head shot looks like it is a ship docked to a corridor. Nifty! Heh, so you had to "last minute adjust" the height of the whole module to make it 10 bricks tall... I (...) (20 years ago, 18-Aug-05, to lugnet.space)
