Hello Everybody! Well, today's the day! The bid official launch of my new website.

(...) flower and tree as a detail, and in general how the boat is put together out of sideways plates. Seems to fit right into Adventurers, no matter that the theme has not yet officially gone to the taiga. -Erik (21 years ago, 14-Dec-03, to lugnet.adventurers)

Hi. I am making some Voyageur MOCs and trying to figure out where they fit in. I'm thinking either Pirates or Adventurers? What do you think? Is there room for a few more MOC ideas here? Thoughts welcome. Chris (URL) (21 years ago, 14-Dec-03, to lugnet.adventurers)

(...) Check out "Darwinia" by Robert Charles Wilson. It's a bit on the sci-fi side, but it takes place in 1920. Basically Europe gets wiped out and replaced with an unexplored forest, and adventurers are sent in to map and explore the "new" land. (...) (21 years ago, 10-Dec-03, to lugnet.adventurers)

I'm trying to find some books for inspiration for Adventurers models. Either fiction or non-fiction. I've read a few of the Indiana Jones novels which are a good start. Any suggestions? (21 years ago, 10-Dec-03, to lugnet.adventurers)

(...) Thank you for the criticism. Old hulls are a little unproportional; they were not made for minifigs, so it's rather hard to keep good proportions, especially when you want to make something more than just a cockpit. I'm glad you like the idea (...) (21 years ago, 7-Dec-03, to lugnet.adventurers, FTX)

Wish they were still being used. The hidden compartment under (...) (21 years ago, 6-Dec-03, to lugnet.adventurers, FTX)

(...) I like the idea and the details: bed, engine, pump and hidden compartment under the crate. But I think that it looks misplaced on the tall and narrow hull. I guess that it is too cramped. The color scheme is fine though. Christian (21 years ago, 6-Dec-03, to lugnet.adventurers, FTX)
