 | | MOC: Union Station - Kansas City, MO
|
| After 3 years of planning and 6 months of building, I am pleased to announce the completion of the main section of Union Station, modeled after the real building in Kansas City, MO. This is also my entry for the 2002 Town Building Contest C (...)

I also had to lower the steering assembly and make it narrower so that I could squeeze the shocks in. As (...) (23 years ago, 17-Mar-02, to lugnet.build)

| In case anyone's interested, I've created a brickshelf folder with version 2 of the Jeep Cherokee. It features larger balloon tires, cosmetic shocks, a modified steering system, and a reinforced front bumper (which you can't see, but it's there (...) (23 years ago, 17-Mar-02, to lugnet.build)

It would be one thing to make it, but then at this scale, and with such detail, and such accuracy, and such poseability! OMG! I can't (...) (23 years ago, 17-Mar-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

| OOOOH!!! That gets my mecha juices flowing!! I love the head and the legs. I want to know where he(?) got that chrome radar dish. Is that model all ball joints? I wonder how it can pose with just ball joints...I've tried them and they are too weak (...) (23 years ago, 17-Mar-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

The revolver is obviously just a couple parts, but your mind wants to fill in the details. It's very well done. (...) (23 years ago, 17-Mar-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
