| Hi! Great googly moogly, it's the incredible disappearing ship! (URL) 31 pictures; go in sequence (they don't list that way, sorry). If I can figure out how to make a slideshow, I'll do that eventually. The "joy" sequence must await a good (...) (22 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.boats, lugnet.pirates)
| | | | | New MOC - Minifig sized Titanic
|
| Hey guys, I took a break from building space creations, and decided to take a stab at something I had been wanting to create for some time now. It took me about two weeks to build, and took up every single one of my black bricks, which wouldn't be (...)

| | | | | looking for help with some Props
|
| Anyone have an idea of how to build a decent looking boat screw, or proppeller or wheel if thats your prefered term. I work at a shipyard and I hear all 3. I'm working ona model in mini-fig scale and the wheels I have no clue about yet. Can anyone (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jan-02, to lugnet.boats)

| | | | | The ship after the dark ages
|
| Hey guys, After my one year dark age, I've finally begun building again. Just want to share these pictures of a new ship I'm working on (still need to work out some problems with the boxy look). It's a sorta trans-atlantic liner(ish) and I've gotten (...) (23 years ago, 19-Nov-01, to lugnet.boats, lugnet.town)

| Shaun, That's looking great! The hull's "smoothness" is very cool, The POV'd thumbnail's actually look like a real model boat hull, not lego, great job, I was at my library last night picking some WWII plane books up, and I checked for some (...)

| (...) You can turn off perspective in POV-Ray by adding the keyword "orthographic" to the camera. For example, camera { location <x,y,x> look_at <x',y',z'> orthographic } Hope that helps! Just remember to remove the keyword when you want perspective (...) (23 years ago, 14-Nov-01, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.boats, lugnet.cad.ray)

|
| (...) I put up a couple more views. As much as I like POVRay, it unfortunately insists on a 3d perspective, so even when I want a simple top down or side projection view, you're stuck with some distortion on the ends. Ahh well, I suppose that is, (...) (23 years ago, 14-Nov-01, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.boats)

I hope you'll post lateral and dorsal views--I'd like to get a look at that curvature. Do you actually have enough 1x1 technic beams to (...)

|
| Hey Rick (and all)-- For that interior detail, I saw something very interesting this weekend at TRU: A MegaBloks cut-away model of a 'boomer! I don't know if it would be worth a look, as it's nowhere near minifig scale, but I found it sort of (...)

Maybe a bit of width at the tail (which would then be the midships), but again, only to keep the curvature. The maximum width (...) (23 years ago, 15-Oct-01, to lugnet.boats, lugnet.build.military)
