| Eric- What a great concept! And implementation! And effect! You cut to the heart of what makes a really cool MOC. I'm certainly going to want to put some cows in our pasteur when I get back from BF. -Ted Michon SCLTC (20 years ago, 4-Aug-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build, lugnet.trains, FTX)
| | | | | MOC: Parthenon
|
| Just in time for the summer Olympics in Athens I finished the real life version of my MLCad-created Lego model of Parthenon, in approximately 1:240 scale. My model depicts the building in its ancient glory, not the sad but impressive ruins of today. (...) (20 years ago, 4-Aug-04, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.build.ancient) !!

| Those forges are really cool. I don't know what else to say. They are practically perfect. If you have and other kinds of forge modules in mind, for the love of all that is lego, don't hesitate to build them and show them off! (20 years ago, 4-Aug-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, FTX)

| I missed the initial post the first time I read about this, but my first thought was magnets. My wife (a non-AFOL) thought magnets too when I showed her the video.

You can easely modify the programm, by example in order to add sensors or outputs to control 3 or more cows. For my part, I have only two (...)

| Really nice Moc. The nose reminds me of my MG3k... If you're interested in feedback, I'd suggest that you remove the 1x3 bricks from the wings and move the black "guns" up in front of the 75 degree slopes to break the otherwise flat (unaerodynamic) (...)
