(...) display. Every so often, I may move them around, or take them apart for "storage", but I haven't built a model from scratch since I was 10 or so (I'm 22 now). Unfortunately, I don't have much of anything resembling an imagination. I just like (...) (25 years ago, 13-Nov-99, to lugnet.build)
 
  Vague Lousy Page is Finally Up...dated
 
(...) Thanks for the kind words (and the nightmares). There's much more up now--more captions, better attributions, and a dozen new .jpgs-- check it out, feedback welcome (besides "get a colour scanner" ;) ). LFB. (25 years ago, 13-Nov-99, to lugnet.boats, lugnet.build)

(...) Does that make me the second? ;) (...) <snipped stuff> (...) I almost invariably build the model first. There is typically something there that gives me a neat idea, or a springboard for similar ideas, and so forth. The only exceptions to date (...) (25 years ago, 12-Nov-99, to lugnet.build)

(...) I always build the main model even if it is a very small set that I bought just for parts. My interest is in Technic and MindStorms. Even though I have been building my own models for quite some time, I can find a helpful building tip even in (...) (25 years ago, 12-Nov-99, to lugnet.build)
 
  I'm Through Coloring Inside the Lines for Awhile...
 
I'm the first to admit that I buy LEGO sets just for the parts. I never actually build the model in the instruction booklet. Until a recent post by Ralph Hempel about the 8226 Mud Masher that sent me on a bit of a building rampage. The Mud Masher (...) (25 years ago, 12-Nov-99, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: LEGO Queen Amidala
 
Thanks y'all for them kind (and humourous) words. I've got some more pictures, including one with yours truly for size comparison. But I'll include it when I feel more extroverted. Craig, your Queen Amidala and other creations are marvels to (...) (25 years ago, 12-Nov-99, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)

  Re: LEGO Queen Amidala
 
This is cool. One photo with an adult human next to it would be helpful, just so the scale of the model sinks in. -- dave (25 years ago, 11-Nov-99, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)

  Re: LEGO Queen Amidala
 
Henry, That is quite impressive. I can imagine how heavy it must be as my Alice model was quite weighty and only 4 feet tall. Maybe one day we'll be able to pose my LEGO R2D2 next to your Queen... quite a LEGO-moment it would be. Good work, eric (...) (25 years ago, 11-Nov-99, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Microfigure wheeled vehicles
 
(...) Ah, but that would make the trailer a semi-trailer! ;-) (...) Yes, I've seen it before, and it is a nice one with good attention to details.

  Re: LEGO Queen Amidala
 
Eric Harshbarger (sorry if I mispelled your name) finally met someone his caliber. I showed Amidala to my non-LEGO significant other, and she said: "Wow! I'm impressed!"
