(...) Ria- Exceedingly well done! You have taken on a iconic structure that is very difficult to render in bricks and done a very beautiful job. I'd love to get that into an SCLTC layout! You've added more proof to the maxim that there's nothing (...) (19 years ago, 6-Sep-05, to lugnet.town, FTX)

Ria, This is outstanding! I love the number of ways you've made curved shapes, especially (URL) this one> built of stacked plates. Btw, your other recent creations are great as well. That rhino is especially cute. "Gingivere" = Ria Anderson? I have (...) (19 years ago, 6-Sep-05, to lugnet.town, FTX)

Simply amazing. How did you handle the helix? Is there any interior? I love how all your projects deal with "nonstandard" part connections to make curved shapes. Your animal folder is particularly inspiring and fun. Great work! Darrell (19 years ago, 6-Sep-05, to lugnet.town, FTX)

This is fantastic, Ria. You've really captured the curvy-licious essence of my favorite building in the whole wide world. Your low-angle camera shots are particularly yummy. Oh, dear. Now I'm hungry. (...) Get thee! I could sit across the street (...) (19 years ago, 7-Sep-05, to lugnet.town, FTX)
