Hey Aquazonians, I just wanted to drop a post that after a very busy time at work, the worst appears to be over, and I actually have time to build again. So, look for more SM, aquazone, and goofy stuff from me to be popping up. I'd also like to (...) (22 years ago, 24-Apr-03, to lugnet.aquazone, lugnet.events.brickfest)

Hey Sea-Monkey fans, I've got a question. What is the name of the piece you use for the Sea Monkey tail? I was thinking of doing some undersea creations but can't find that piece on Bricklink. Bruce (22 years ago, 22-Apr-03, to lugnet.aquazone)

(...) That was pretty much the image I was going with! I wanted a ship that reeked of power and do circles around anything else underwater...mostly:) "Ahnald"? Hm, might have to give the SeaHunter a nickname:) (...) Yep, you pretty much nailed the (...) (22 years ago, 16-Apr-03, to lugnet.town, lugnet.space, lugnet.aquazone)

(...) What I like about it is the implied POWER in the wings ... they almost look like arms ... in "attack position" (I'm reminded of the Klingon BOP's wing manuverability here) it would certainly remind me of "Ahnald" coming in for the kill!!!!

(...) Thanks! The overall look of the SeaHunter was basically a) power, b) weapons, and c) power. This should be able to give a Manta a run for its money. The wings are really hinged because I douldn't make up my mind on how I wanted the wings, so (...) (22 years ago, 16-Apr-03, to lugnet.town, lugnet.space, lugnet.aquazone)

(...) Joe, Yes, another great addition to the fleet! I like the overall shape of the craft...looks as if it's ready to take on a whole slew of squids! The hinged wings are a neat aspect to an already streamlined design. The drone looks good (...) (22 years ago, 15-Apr-03, to lugnet.town, lugnet.space, lugnet.aquazone)

Speaking of which, I spotted your calimari...beautiful work and use of the arm parts You made long graceful tentacles, (...) (22 years ago, 14-Apr-03, to lugnet.town, lugnet.space, lugnet.aquazone)

Most small scale stuff is tough to do...it's really easy to overdetail or greeble things, which is why I tend to (...) (22 years ago, 12-Apr-03, to lugnet.town, lugnet.space, lugnet.aquazone)

(...) Aquazone is fun for me because it's relatively 'unbuilt.' You castle stuff is really nice, and somewhat enviable for me...I tend to shy away from Castle stuff because that would imply another massive investment of parts for walls and turrets (...) (22 years ago, 12-Apr-03, to lugnet.aquazone)

(...) Brilliant! I love the SeaHunter and the unmanned sub puts some recent efforts of mine on the small scale of aquazone to shame... Great work and use of old and new slants... God Bless, Nathan (22 years ago, 12-Apr-03, to lugnet.town, lugnet.space, lugnet.aquazone)

The variable wing was originally going to be a axle setup so the engines could rotate, but I quickly learned that the ship would require gearing to keep the engines in place. Also, the ship (...)

Very cool Joe...the underwater Alpha stuff is always so intriguing. The variable wing config sets it apart. I quite like the drone as well - it has more a a predatory look, perfect for waxing those Ogel zombies. Cheers, -G (...) (22 years ago, 11-Apr-03, to lugnet.town, lugnet.space, lugnet.aquazone)
