  Re: Fire Engine MOC
 
1. Does the "deck gun" rotate? 2. The wheels at the back look like they should be a little further back... or perhaps a double set? -- Scott A Edinburgh, Scotland. (URL) (25 years ago, 20-Aug-99, to lugnet.build)

Not as impressive, but if you want to see another Viper MOC, take a look at: (URL) model is under the "Original Creations" link. It is black though, I don't have enough grey parts.

  Re: New web pages
 
(...) Oh, sure -- Minimax is the purple guy who kind of looks like a Borg. (That's "Max" as in "Beyond the Thunderdome" :-) Right now I have him on top of my monitor in a zombie deathwalk pose. You know the look -- goose-stepping with both arms (...) (25 years ago, 23-Aug-99, to lugnet.build)

(...) I'll get it on my Web page soon... It's not yet a completey accurate rendering, tho, until I can swipe the LDraw part for the Pirate sword. I might leave it with the knives, I dunno... (...)

  Re: Colonial Viper
 
(...) Thanks! Before I cleaned up the LEGO in the LEGO room and sorted all of it (which took about 4 weeks, on and off), I wasn't sure I'd have enough of those pieces. I knew I the X-Wing engines would be too small, but I wasn't sure what to use (...) (25 years ago, 23-Aug-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build, lugnet.cad, lugnet.publish)
 
  Re: Colonial Viper
 
(...) Thanks! (...) That was one of my main goals, which wasn't so easy considering my limited supply of orange (I had to use 1x4 plates vertically in the tail for lack of 1x1 bricks) Although I usually apply stickers to TLG models when I buy them, (...)

  Re: Colonial Viper
 
This is really great! The coloring is wonderful, and I love your use of the 1X2 rounded brick/place combo pieces--especially on the front. Nice job detailing the cockpit, too. And nice POV work. -John Van P.S. I hope I've been effusive enough for (...) (25 years ago, 23-Aug-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build, lugnet.cad, lugnet.publish)
 
  Re: Colonial Viper
 
(...) excellent stuff, bram! i like the way you implemented the orange stripes right into the model itself (without the need for stickers). ..joseph g (25 years ago, 23-Aug-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build, lugnet.cad, lugnet.publish)
 
  Re: Check out my minifig-scale Droideka
 
(...) Is there any chance someone could post a picture of the model, either a photo or the rendering? I am on a SunStation running UNIX w/ X, from which I can't run DOS programs, and I'd love to see the model. Any ideas? Thanks, Shaun (25 years ago, 23-Aug-99, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)

  Re: 2x2 plate with hole ?
 
Thanks again, I can tell from looking at the instructions for that set I'll need the 2x2 with one hole not two. After a little trial and error I figured out that the lugnet set/piece inventory refers to it as a 2x2 plate with 90° female joint (...) (25 years ago, 22-Aug-99, to lugnet.build)

Hey Scott, Thanks for the quick answer. Do you happen to know off the top of your head a town set that uses it? thanks, Chris Hill (...) (25 years ago, 22-Aug-99, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: 2x2 plate with hole ?
 
You can use a standard peg for it for the many different Technic wheels, it is used a lot in Town models. I never had a problem with it, you just need to build a good base around so that piece stays there. Scott Sanburn (...) (25 years ago, 22-Aug-99, to lugnet.build)
