  Re: UFO clear and gray pieces - Are they useful for emulating architectural features?
 
This is really my last post today, I just have to answer this! Yes! Eric Brok made excellent and creative use of the UFO pieces which lots of people shamelessly copied later (me included... need more UFO hulls...) Check them out, under 'buildings' (...)

  UFO clear and gray pieces - Are they useful for emulating architectural features?
 
When the UFO stuff first came out, I scoffed at them (because I'm more into town than space). However, I decided that I wanted to build a merry-go-round and the circular pieces would make a good top. So, I bought two UFO sets. I never was able to (...) (25 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.build.arch)
 
  Re: Haunted Houses- I need graphics
 
The pumpkin graphics used in the contest site were made with Photoshop trickery. No minifig head were painted to make the contest graphics. I think Brian Nelson's entry had a pumpkin he made that was fairly elegant. Two side notes..... One: I built (...)

  Re: ED-209
 
Dave!, (...) Yes! Great representation of it! I just watched Robocop a few days ago, I love ED-209. Too bad we don't have a Robocop minifig to go along with it. :) "You are illegally parked on private property. You have 20 seconds to move your (...) (25 years ago, 7-Mar-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Re: ED-209
 
(...) Not bad. I kind of like it. It just, (to me at least,) a little smaller than I would have expected, if it were mini-fig scale. Of course, you didn't say that it was, did you? Rich -- Have Fun! C-Ya! Legoman34 ***** Legoman34 (Richard W. (...) (25 years ago, 7-Mar-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  ED-209
 
Until I get an MPD put together for this thing, here's a POV-Ray image of the model in question. Thanks to Lars Hassing for L3P, of course! (URL) Feedback is welcome and appreciated! Dave! (25 years ago, 7-Mar-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Re: Gail Storm/Pippin Reed face - thoughts
 
One of the medical staff in my Launch Command scenario has this head with brown shoulder-length hair. It gives her a 'professionally-styled' look, and differentiates her from the legion of smileys. I also have the Gail Storm astronaut; she's senior (...) (25 years ago, 7-Mar-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs)
 
  Re: Gail Storm/Pippin Reed face - thoughts
 
(...) I've actually got a character that uses that head as well - no pictures, yet, because I need to do some building first. I think the one I have might have a slight printing offset or something because she definitely looks less 'sweet' than the (...) (25 years ago, 7-Mar-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs)

  Gail Storm/Pippin Reed face - thoughts
 
About that Gail Storm face... (y'know, brown, curly hair, sweet expression) I really like that face. I have a character that fits the face really well.
