hey all, i keep seeing interesting posts about color schemes and design aesthetics, so I'm revising the order in which I'm putting up tutorials/tips on my website. I'll be putting up the "About Colors" diatribe in the "Aesthetics" section of my site (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.aquazone, lugnet.general, lugnet.announce)

(...) A bit of both, actually. Because of the sheer number of bricks with the Statue of Liberty set, my design incorporates wide pillars between each window, and a Chrysler Building type spire on the top. Also, although the base is pretty big, the (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.build)

(...) John, I've been trying every morning for the last three days to look at your pictures. The farthest I've gotten is the gallery for I think the Aoi Katana.

That is really slick! I like the green/dark gray color scheme (I used a similar color scheme on my Kobold Mech). I'm looking forward to getting that green dragon kit from shop@home, for copious amounts of green bricks. This looks like it would make (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space)
