Out of all the original creations I've seen so far on the web, Karim's are the best. No one else has a deeper understanding or how to build and how to overcome the "stacking" problem of Lego bricks. The man is a master. Dave (26 years ago, 22-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build, lugnet.starwars)

The SW models really do captrure the essence of the various ships quite well. It's really impressive to see such a good portrayal of these SW ships with such a small number of parts.
