(...) Thanks Kyle! I use the orange for the missile wells as a kind of "warning" colour. The orange looks better against the greys than red or yellow. Glad you like it. (...) It's absolutely shameful that I still haven't seen it. The next time I (...) (20 years ago, 24-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Thanks Anthony! I get what you're saying about the guns. I would love to make long, round-barrelled guns, but LEGO only makes 1x1 or 2x2 rounded tubes. 1x1 is IMO too skinny for the primary cannons, and 2x2 is too fat. I really wish there was (...)
