Hi all, Castle is still my specialty, but here is an aquazone fighter I made a while ago. Due to range limitations it is transported by a large underwater barge which is much more fuel efficent. The Sea Hawk (the fighter portion) uses its 'tail (...) (22 years ago, 15-Nov-02, to lugnet.aquazone, lugnet.announce.moc)

Hey Joe - I like this a lot! You've captured a very distinctive shape in all of her Victorian glory. The brown look great (and was - as someone else said - a brave choice) I once contemplated building a Nautilus myself, but more true to the (...)

(...) WOW! The auqazone in me says keep building it's great. The castle in me says look at the brown slopes... Is this the beginning of a 20 000 leagues or Mysterious Island project? God Bless, Nathan (22 years ago, 5-Nov-02, to lugnet.aquazone)

(...) I think it's great! You've captured the shape very well. Brown was certainly a very brave colour choice, but it's really paid dividends for you. Cheers Richie Dulin (22 years ago, 4-Nov-02, to lugnet.aquazone, lugnet.disney)
