Hi Folks- I've made another long overdue update to my Lego Armored Vehicles site. It includes an alternate design submitted by a "user" (is that the right word?) and the next chapter in a combat report. Hope you enjoy. Cheers, -Stickoby (23 years ago, 8-May-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

(...) Well Ben, I don't have a simple solution for you. I first built the ship in LDraw. I took screen captures of the different views of the ship from that program. I placed the screen captures into Adobe Illustrator and traced over them to get my (...) (23 years ago, 8-May-01, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.space)

It wouldn't be that tough. Most of the work goes into planning the layout of the pieces (especially important with mosaics) and making sure that the whole structures stays together nicely. Unfortunately, making sure you never have seams lining up (...) (23 years ago, 8-May-01, to lugnet.build)

thanks for the compliments but on the standing part I kind of cheated a bit. in case you didn't notice, I just used technic parts to hold the leg to the torso but the leg can't move!! it's stationary but can be wiggled a bit.

Bobby, The answer for me lies in what I like to build. I have no interest in making a six foot tall mecha. Most builders create at a level they are comfortable. For me the scale I build has a lot to do with the types of joints I am using. Gravity (...) (23 years ago, 7-May-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
