Amy, You have created a masterpiece which captures one thing that most Lego church MOC's have failed to include, The Lord. Most people have built thier towns to include a church but have never learned why a Church is a crucial element in every town, (...) (23 years ago, 25-Mar-02, to lugnet.build.arch)

Amy & All, (...) This is probably my favorite LEGO creations I have ever seen since I went online with the LEGO community back in 1997 or so.

(...) Thanks, Jason. Actually, that bump was an attempt to make a 3-stud-wide head look round. It didn't work, but it did occur to me that it looked like a minifig head stud, so I left it :-) "In His image", remember, and it's a minifig church. The (...)

Hey guys. My m-wing was just added to FBTB. (URL) few construction notes: This ship does not have an M shape because I wanted one of the ships to be smaller than an A-wing. I figured M would be a good letter for this, (micro) and the fact that I (...) (23 years ago, 25-Mar-02, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.build, lugnet.general, lugnet.space) !
